    High-Altitude Drone Design: A Simulation-Based Approach for Extreme Atmospheric Conditions
    (GMIT, 2025-06-04) Belgutei Odgerel; Supervisor 1. Ph.D. Odbileg N.; Supervisor 2. Ph.D. Youngsuk Kim
    Through the use of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation models, the study aims to conduct relative research between different drone designs and propulsion Methods to find the ideal design for high-altitude near-space applications. The research concluded that although each design had both advantages and disadvantages, the most ideal configuration for general application in extreme altitudes was the hexacopter, due to its powerful yet compact configuration. The study also looked at different forms of thrust generation, assessing the efficiency, power, and range to determine the feasibility of their application in orbital regions. Overall, two of the three methods were operational in LEO (Low Earth Orbit) and above, confirming the feasibility of orbital drones.
