Experimental method of determining characteristics of power and torque engine for low-power unmanned aerial vehicles

The article presents an analytical determination of power and torque of internal combustion engines of small power. It measured actual power and torque characteristics of internal combustion engines of small power. Three types (methods), braking (receiving power via a hydraulic pump, generator and a package of propellers with variable angle of attack. For each method of receiving power (braking) determined the characteristics of torque and power. There is the summary of results for one engine with different ways of braking. There have been evaluation of the presented methods inhibit combustion piston engines of small power as methods for determining power internal combustion engines. The analysis methods presented in the perspective of the braking engine selection for light unmanned aircraft, and the use of parameters derived from research into engine control. Subject to the evaluation method of adjustment (increase) charged, increasing the load on a liquid or ankle. The criterion for comparing methods for inhibition of internal combustion engines of small power load assumed dependence on the rotational speed n, and obtain maximum power on the motor shaft when the throttle, a reflection of the actual engine operating parameters in its target applications
