Speed-only aerodynamic power models for multirotor propulsion cannot represent acceleration-dependent effects. This work develops a nested sequence of propulsion-power models that starts from aerodynamic power dissipation and progressively introduces a reversible kinetic-energy rate, torque-dependent electromechanical dissipation, and lumped speed-proportional dissipation. The models are identified using one subset of experiments and validated using the other on a motor-drive-propeller unit. Independent estimates of rotational inertia and aerodynamic drag complement predictive validation by assessing whether the models correctly attribute the measured power to reversible kinetic-energy exchange and irreversible dissipation and, within the latter, to aerodynamic and electromechanical losses. The results show that the reversible kinetic-energy rate is necessary but insufficient for accurate dynamic power prediction. Dissipation proportional to the squared motor torque provides the main additional improvement, while speed-proportional dissipation further prevents irreversible losses from being attributed to reversible kinetic-energy exchange. The resulting methodology provides a reusable and experimentally verifiable basis for developing and selecting dynamic propulsion-power models for multirotor systems.
