Abstract

As the UAV industry is getting matured, various types of UAVs have appeared in many application fields, including filming, reconnaissance, rescue, and etc. and it requires the quick hardware designs, particularly a battery pack, of the UAV. We developed the automatic battery pack design tool for the convenient battery pack configuration design of the hoverable type delivery UAV. With inputs, including current profile, voltage profile, various kinds of cell specifications, desired battery pack voltage, and etc. the automatic battery pack design tool calculates a pack having the minimum weight and the maximum capacity by combining either homogeneous cells or heterogeneous cells. Also, the tool could predict the capacity fading trend of the designed battery pack configuration.

무인항공기 산업이 성숙해짐에 따라 촬영, 정찰, 구조 등 많은 분야에 무인항공기가 적용되고 있으며, 이로 인하여 신속한 무인항공기의 하드웨어의 설계, 특히 배터리팩의 설계가 필요하게 되었다. 수직이착륙 형태의 배송용 무인항공기의 편리한 배터리팩 구성 설계를 위한 자동 배터리팩 설계 툴을 개발하였다. 전류, 전압 패턴, 여러 셀 사양, 원하는 배터리팩 전압 등의 입력을 하면, 자동 배터리팩 설계 툴이 균질 셀 또는 이종 셀들을 결합하여 최소 중량과 최대 용량을 갖는 배터리팩을 계산한다. 또한 이 툴은 설계된 배터리팩 구성의 사용에 따른 용량 감소 경향을 예측할 수 있다.
