While finalizing a design is quite significant in case of MAV, understanding the flow field environment in which MAVs fly is equally a requirement. The flow field environments encountered by Micro Air Vehicles are fundamentally unsteady ¿ whether for fixed-wing, rotary-wing or flapping-wing configurations. High lift generation is typically a result of unsteady fluid flow phenomena in flapping flight of small birds and insects. Along with a good understanding of flow field environment of an MAV the insight into the aerodynamics characteristics of it calls for an investigation. These characteristics greatly influence the design of a prototype of an MAV which can serve the purpose of a specific application. As a first step towards exploring the flow environment and computing the aerodynamic characteristics of a smaller MAV we have chosen a fixed wing MAV for which a study is attempted considering a three dimensional flow field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783659143878\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eUnsteady Aerodynamics, Low Reynolds Number\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783659143878","offer_id":39448225251421,"sku":"9783659143878","price":61.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/f5c1f048-2347-4433-8993-3359337116ce.jpg?v=1769235591","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/micro-aerial-vehicle-unsteady-aerodynamics-low-reynolds-number-von-somashekar-v-sarat-maharana","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
