摘要

In the seminal research into simulated swarming, Reynolds developed a methodology that guided a flock of agents using just three rules: collision avoidance, swarm centering, and velocity matching. By modifying these rules, an algorithm is created and applied to unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) so each aircraft in a "swarm" maintains a precise position relative to the preceding aircraft. Each aircraft experiences a decrease in induced aerodynamic drag, thus reducing overall fuel consumption, increasing range and endurance and expanding UAS utility. A simulation demonstrates the feasibility of the drag reduction swarm using a drag benefit map constructed from extant research. Due to both agent interaction and wind gust variability, the optimal position for drag reduction presented a severe collision hazard, and drag reduction was much more sensitive to lateral (wingtip) position than longitudinal (stream-wise) position. By increasing longitudinal spacing, the collision hazard was acceptably reduced. For one scenario, compared to a single UAS, a swarm of 10 aircraft demonstrated a 9.7% reduction in total aerodynamic drag, decreased fuel consumption by 14.2% and an increased endurance by 14.5%.
