Preliminary Design and Analysis of Worlds Smallest Aircraft

In this study an initiative is taken to put focus on a special design of world smallest aircraft. Bumble bee-2 a Guinness recorded world smallest aircraft is a reference airplane for my design. My airplane MVP-TS has a wing span of 1.5m, 2m in length which is 18% less than that of Bumble bee- 2 aircraft. In this project a smallest single seater airplane MVP-TS is designed and analyzed. The aerodynamic characteristics such as coefficient of lift (CL) and coefficient of drag (CD) at different Angle of attack ranging from 80 to 200 is analysed. In today’s world the aircraft manufacturing industry plays a major role in a profitable business with much of competitors, being one of the future competitor my ultimate aim is to manufacture the smallest aircraft which is much less in cost, so that an individual dream of flying will be true. Being a small single seater airplane with reduced cost, this airplane may take a more production in future. As an initiative the preliminary design aspects of my aircraft is designed using CATIA-V5R17 software and analyzed using ANSYS-14.2 software.
