Abstract
This paper concentrates on the design, analysis, and development of fixed-wing hand launch unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). This flight can able to carry the payloads of 0.8. The design process involves the conceptual, preliminary, and detailed design. This paper involves the investigation of the aerodynamic characteristics over the wing to enhance the aerodynamic design of the UAV. This analysis includes estimating the best gliding ratio to increase the flight mission and attain the maximum altitude. This simulation will be performed for subsonic flow with Mach number 0.04202(14.3m/s). The manufacturing of the UAV is done using composite materials like glass fiber of both (1mm and 2 mm) thickness, carbon fiber of 2mm, and carbon rod is used for connecting the empennage to the fuselage. The detailed design has been done in CATIA V5 and the analysis of the wing has been done using XFLR, ANSYS (fluent).
