The dataset consists of CFD simulation results on the propeller-induced flow of an octocopter UAV in hover.
The simulations are obtained using RANS, the k − ε turbulence model, and the actuator disc theory. System geometry, mesh construction, and calculations were done using the commercial software Ansys Fluent 2022 R1.
Further details on the geometry design (e.g. computational domain, UAV architecture, boundary conditions), mesh construction, calculations setup, and reading of the dataset can be found in the ReadMe file.
