Abstract
Today, there is considerable interest in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The correct choice of a propulsion system for UAVs, especially for small and medium-size classes, is a difficult task. Despite a number of significant advantages of microgasturbines (MGT) compared with the electric motors and internal combustion engines, first have a very low overall efficiency of the order about 17%, which was caused by low cycle parameters and low propulsion efficiency of modern MGT. So, improvement of MGT’s efficiency leads to better overall performance of UAVs and carrying out of further experiments and developing new approaches to MGT is very important.
