Abstract

Aiming at the parachute recovery of fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicles, a method of parachute deployment by tractor rocket is proposed. First, the tensile tests were carried out on high-strength polyethylene and brocade silk-weaved composite materials. The dynamic property parameters of the materials were obtained, which was the input for the dynamic model of the parachute deployment phase. Second, the model was verified by the experiment results. Finally, parachute weight and rocket launch temperature during the deployment phase were studied. The results showed that the dynamic model has good accuracy; as the parachute weight increases, the maximum snatch force of the extraction line and the sling decreases as the force on the suspension lines increases and the deployment effect worsens. With the temperature rise, the maximum snatch force on the extraction line, sling, and suspension lines increases and the deployment length changes slightly.
