UAV Control System Enclosure

This is an enclosure designed for a embedded computing system used for UAV command and control communication. The enclosure is designed as an upgrade to the previous design which occupied 60% more volume and weight 40% more. The enclosure is designed to stack all the electronics inside layer by layer which have a fan placed in front of them. This allows all electronics to be actively cooled through out the time of operation of the system.

 

 

 

 

The active cooling, accompanied by stacked layer design reduced the average operating temperatures of the components by 15°F which allows the main computer to operate more efficiently and prevents overheating.
