The present disclosure discloses an energy management system suitable for a solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicle and a control method thereof, which are used for an aerospace vehicle energy system. The system comprises a photovoltaic module, an MPPT controller, a first DC-DC circuit, a battery pack, a first anti-reverse circuit, a second DC-DC circuit, a second anti-reverse circuit, an ESC, a BLDC, an on-board controller, a communication link and a voltage stabilizing module. During cruising, the battery pack directly supplies power to the ESC through the first anti-reverse circuit; when high-power power output is needed, the battery pack supplies power to the ESC through the second DC-DC circuit and the second anti-reverse circuit in sequence, wherein the output voltage of the second DC-DC circuit and the accelerator signal input of the ESC are controlled by the on-board controller.

Energy management control system suitable for solar-powered unmanned aerial vehicle and control method thereof

The present disclosure provides an efficient control system and method for a brushless motor with a wide working range, which are applied to an aerospace vehicle energy system. The system of the present disclosure includes a power supplying module, a first DC-DC circuit, a battery pack, a second DC-DC circuit, an anti-reverse-connection circuit, an electronic speed control (ESC), a brushless direct current motor (BLDC), an airborne controller and a communication link. Electric energy from the power supplying module is configured to charge the battery pack via the first DC-DC circuit, and electric energy of the battery pack sequentially flows through the second DC-DC circuit and the anti-reverse-connection circuit to energize the ESC, wherein output voltage of the second DC-DC circuit and throttle signal input of the ESC are controlled in real time by the airborne controller according to a power demand of an aircraft.
