This project investigates and implements a propulsive system to a search and rescue drone aircraft by developing a selection and combination of propellers and motors that will best serve for a given mission. The process for selecting motors and propellers is done by comparing existing products on the market with each other and examining their torque- and efficiency matching. Only a few of the top candidates are selected for further investigation with a testing rig in a wind tunnel, which in turn results in a few suitable combinations of motors and propellers for the dedicated mission and aerodynamic loads. From these results suggestions are made for how the propellers can be modified for a better fit for this specific application. Interesting follow-up projects could include further research by developing new propellers specifically for the application. Additionally, interesting follow-up projects could include further investigation of what kind of motor is optimal, and what batteries can be used and implemented into the drone aircraft. eng 2022:04 Technology UAV Propeller Motor Thrust Torque Efficiency Propeller-Motor matching Energy consumption Propulsive Integration on a Search and Rescue Drone Aircraft Examensarbete på kandidatnivå M2 open.access
