How to optimize the power distribution of the energy management system of hybrid power unmanned aerial vehicles?

As a product of modern science and technology, drones are changing our lives at an unprecedented speed. Hybrid power drones, with their high efficiency, environmental protection, low noise, and other advantages, are gradually becoming the darling of industrial applications. However, the flight performance and endurance time of drones are often limited by the energy management system. Therefore, how to optimize the energy management system of hybrid power drones to achieve optimal power distribution has become a hot issue in current research.

An overview of the energy management system of hybrid power unmanned aerial vehicles

Hybrid power unmanned aerial vehicles are a power system that combines batteries and internal combustion engines, with its energy management system (EMS) being the core part of the drone, mainly responsible for the collection, storage, distribution, and management of energy. The energy management system of hybrid power unmanned aerial vehicles is usually composed of battery management system (BMS), energy management system (EMS), energy storage system (ESS), and energy distribution system (EDS). Among them, the battery management system (BMS) is responsible for monitoring the state of the battery, including parameters such as battery voltage, current, temperature, and the health status of the battery; the energy management system (EMS) is responsible for the collection, storage, distribution, and management of energy, including energy distribution, energy recovery, and energy conversion; the energy storage system (ESS) is responsible for storing energy, including batteries and internal combustion engines; and the energy distribution system (EDS) is responsible for distributing energy to various components of the drone to achieve the flight mission of the drone.

Two, the optimization strategies for power distribution in hybrid-powered unmanned aerial vehicles

Power distribution strategies: The power distribution strategies of hybrid-powered unmanned aerial vehicles mainly include power distribution strategies and power distribution control strategies. The power distribution strategies mainly consider how to distribute energy to various components to achieve the flight mission of the UAV; the power distribution control strategies mainly consider how to control the distribution of energy to achieve the flight mission of the UAV. The power distribution strategies and control strategies need to be designed based on the flight mission, flight environment, and performance of the UAV to achieve the optimization of power distribution.

Power distribution control strategies: The power distribution control strategies mainly include energy recovery, energy conversion, and energy distribution. Energy recovery refers to recycling the energy generated during the flight of the UAV into the energy storage system for use in the next flight; energy conversion refers to converting the energy in the energy storage system into the energy required for the flight of the UAV; energy distribution refers to distributing the energy in the energy storage system to the various components of the UAV to achieve the flight mission. The power distribution control strategies need to be designed based on the flight mission, flight environment, and performance of the UAV to achieve the optimization of power distribution.
