The harnessing of solar energy during the operation of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) provides a potential solution to combat the energy constraints. This thesis examines the practicality of a mini solar-assisted UAV and provides experimental validation in regards to energy maximization through solar-electric power management and flight path optimization. A solar-assisted UAV is constructed and shows an increase in flight time. In addition, through the application of power management techniques, an increase in net energy for the solar-assisted UAV is observed. A simulation environment is also developed providing a model for the UAV and estimations for the energy collected and consumed during flight. The simulation results are consistent with real-time measurements during flight tests. Finally, an energy-optimal flight path increasing the net energy is obtained and successfully demonstrated during flight tests. This project deals with UAV using solar energy as their only source of energy for more than 24 hours’ flight. Using solar panels, it collects the energy during the day for immediate use but also store the remaining part for the night flight. The objective is to identify, design and analyze such a reusable solar power unmanned aerial vehicle for high altitude long endurance application with successful implementation of higher energy density batteries such as Li-Po. A detail analysis has been performed to compare similar airplanes to study their successes and failure. An aircraft with similar wingspan as NASA Helios and remarkably less weight, nearly 1135lb, than it is been design. A weight analysis and power sensitivity analysis were researched, and it was shown that this aircraft would generate 75kw of power that is greater than the power available to fly.
