  1. Group 13 Heavy Lift Cargo Plane Stephen McNulty Richard-Marc Hernandez Jessica Pisano Yoosuk Kee Chi Yan Project Advisor: Siva Thangam

  2. Overview • Objectives • Schedule • Progress • Design Concepts and Analysis • Wing • Fuselage • Tail • Landing Gear • Goals

  3. Objectives • Competition Specs are finally posted for the 2004 competition • The plane meets the specifications of the 2004 SAE Aero Design West competition • Construct the plane to design specifications • Test the plane and make optimizations • To compete well at competition and improve Stevens reputation • For the team to improve and expand their knowledge of the design and construction of airplanes

  4. Schedule

  5. Rules Comparison

  6. Limited wing planform area Limited lift force produced Optimize: Fuselage design Materials used Goal: Minimum drag Minimum weight Unlimited wing planform area Limited thrust force produced Optimize: Wing span Fuselage design Materials used Goal: Minimum weight Approach

  7. Design Achievements • Breaking down the plane into smaller components • Brainstorming different ideas for designs • Team divided into smaller groups • Areas studied in smaller group: • Selection of airfoil • Selection of wing shape • Tail stabilizer (both horizontal and vertical) • Landing gear analysis • Fuselage design • Detailed design of aircraft finalized

  8. Calculation Achievements • Calculation of every component completed • Equations and resources from: • textbooks • online researching • white paper (Provided by SAE) • Calculations done with Excel Spreadsheet • Easy to link one value to another • Graphs were easy to compare which design is more efficient • Change around numbers • compare which aircraft design performs best upon constructing and testing • Results used in selection of airfoil, wing shape, and tail stabilizer • Calculations of Landing and Take-off

  9. Sample EquationsLanding Run Distance • Differential Equation of Motion • Landing ground runway • Coefficients A and B • Stall Velocity

  10. Sample Excel Caculations

  11. CAD model Achievements • Team finished Computer Aided Design on the aircraft with SolidWorks • Animations were created • Blueprint of the aircraft ready to be printed

  12. Plane Design Riser: Selig 1223 Balsa Wood Riser construction Dihedral Tail: NACA 0009 Balsa Wood Riser construction

  13. Wing Construction • Balsa Wood Risers • Bass Wood Spars • Dowel Leading Edge • Balsa Wood Trailing Edge • Horner Plate

  14. Fuselage • Fuselage: • Wooden panels • Cargo bay (payload) • Compartments • Easily accessible Fuselage cover Fuselage base Payload Battery/ Receiver /Fuel tank Engine: O.S. .61FX Prop/ Nose

  15. Tail Boom • Tail Boom: • Carbon fiber tube • Attached to fuselage • 12 degree incline

  16. Plane Design • Landing gear: • Aluminum • Connecting Rod • ¾ in Tires
