UAV Engines Limited (UEL) is a company dedicated to the design, development and production of Wankel-type engines for the propulsion of small and medium sized Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs).
The technology is based upon the rotary engine Research and Development work carried out by Norton Motors Ltd during the years 1969 to 1992.
The AR682R aero-engine has been developed to power UAVs which require up to 120 bhp. It is based on the proven AR642 core engine which was designed to meet UK CAA / European JAR-E and US FAA FAR-33 certifications for manned flight.
Design Features
High power to weight ratio.
Small frontal area.
Economical fuel consumption.
Low levels of vibration.
Integral lightweight belt-type reduction drive to propeller.
Technical Specification
Engine Type
Twin rotor Wankel-type rotary engine.
Capacity
294 CC per rotor.
Power Output
90 BHP at 7000 rpm. Alternatively 120 BHP at 8000 rpm with EFI System
Weight
56.5kg for full wet running installed assembly. As illustrated including 2 kw generator, throttle actuator, fuel pump and pressure regulator etc. Propellor not included.
Direction of Rotation
Anti-clockwise (looking at face of prop flange).
Ignition System
Full duplicated 28V C.D system with magntic triggering firing twin plugs. R.F shielded.
Fuel Type
AVGAS (100LL) or Regular grade (min 92 RON) Mogas automotive (leaded or unleaded).
Specific Fuel Consumption
0.55 lb/bhp/hr at 70% cruise
Reduction Drive
Tooth belt system including heavy-duty rubber anti-torsional-vibration device. Standard ration 2.03 to 1.
