Abstract

AbstractMost of the introduced eVTOL models in the UAM market utilize electrically driven rotors with fixed pitch blades, controlled by their rotational speed. This design approach brings new features and challenges that need to be considered during the conceptual design stage, taking new aspects into account, among them the rotor dynamic response. This paper presents an initial parameterization of the rpm-controlled rotors along with the electric motor, based on the conducted literature research. Several isolated rotor variants are modeled and analyzed in terms of performance, and the dynamic response of the rotor rotational speed. The relations between aerodynamics and inertia are discussed, and their effects on the rotor dynamic response are elaborated on.
