The power chain includes a brushless direct current (BLDC)\u00a0motor, a propeller, and a battery. Three models are presented to predict the thrust, electrical consumption, mechanical torque, and rotational speed provided by each component of an electrical power chain. Only public data were used to design these models. The research was developed in order to be used by all people who want to buy electrical power chain components and therefore to model their properties. Neural networks set with MATLAB parameters were used to design BLDC motor output (rotational speed and mechanical torque)\u00a0models. Empirical methods such as blade element theory (BET)\u00a0and disk area were used to model propeller thrust. A battery discharge model was designed based on public datasheets. Very good prediction results were obtained for the rotational speed (0.20% of error)\u00a0and torque (0.45% of error). Small thrust modeling errors of 1.06% were found with the BET method. Models presented in this research could be designed using a wide type of data, such as public data (provided on manufacturer websites)\u00a0or real test bench measurements. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2514\/1.i011250","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,12]],"date-time":"2024-03-12T06:37:30Z","timestamp":1710225450000},"page":"515-532","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.2514\/aiaa_crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Electric Motor Chain Modeling Using Artificial Neural Networks and Semi-Empirical Methods"],"prefix":"10.2514","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Marine","family":"Segui","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"ETS, University of Quebec, Montr\u00e9al, Qu\u00e9bec H3C-1K3, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0911-6646","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ruxandra","family":"Mihaela Botez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ETS, University of Quebec, Montr\u00e9al, Qu\u00e9bec H3C-1K3, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1387","reference":[{"key":"r1","unstructured":"\u201cFlight Reviewer\u2019s Guide for Pilots of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems 250 Grams (g) up to and Including 25 Kilograms (kg), Operating Within Visual Line-of-Sight (VLOS),\u201d Transport Canada (TC) Publication TP15395, Canada, 2019."},{"key":"r2","unstructured":"\u201cKnowledge Requirements for Pilots of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems 250\u00a0g up to and Including 25\u00a0kg, Operating Within Visual Line-of-Sight (VLOS),\u201d Transport Canada (TC) Publication TP15263, Canada, 2019."},{"volume-title":"Helicopter Performance, Stability, and Control","year":"2005","author":"Prouty R.
