Conceptual Design of a Novel Roadable Flying Car

Year 2021, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 111 - 134, 30.12.2021

Abstract

Nowadays, the importance of zero-emission flying cars has increased as a solution to the traffic problem caused by population growth. In this study, previous flying car concepts in the literature were examined and a conceptual design study of a novel flying car was made. The configuration in which the designed vehicle can achieve maximum efficiency was selected and a design principle was followed accordingly. A survey was conducted with end-users by comparing the vehicle with other concepts in the world. At the same time, the final system architecture of the vehicle and all subsystem components such as electronic communication, chassis, battery management system, power, and propulsion systems were created and designed. In this way, it is aimed to obtain consistent data in mathematical models and analyzes. CFD and static analyzes of the vehicle were made and the data obtained were compared with the numerical analyzes and the vehicle was developed. It has been given importance to reduce the noise of all systems used in the vehicle in terms of passenger comfort and to develop new noise reduction solutions. The reliability of the system is very important due to the innovativeness of the Flying Car (eVTOL) concept. For this reason, the security of all components of the vehicle, cyber-attacks, flight security, and other possible problems have been examined and solutions have been produced. Autopilot systems, GPS, radar, power supply, and other subsystems that can be used on the vehicle are provided with redundancy. Algorithms and different solutions have been produced for issues such as air movement rules of the designed vehicle in today's cities, communication protocols of vehicles, how to get take off the vehicle, how to plan a route, how to react to problems, battery and charging stations.
