High efficiency recuperated ceramic gas turbine engines for small unmanned air vehicle propulsion
To perform long missions, small unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) need efficient, lightweight propulsion systems that can operate on energy dense fuels. Gas turbines offer better reliability, life, fuel flexibility, noise, and vibration than internal combustion (IC) engines, but they are uncompetitive du...
