Book excerpt: An initial evaluation is made of extensive three-component (3C) particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements within the wake across a rotor disk plane. The model is a 40 percent scale BO-105 helicopter main rotor in forward flight simulation. This study is part of the HART II test program conducted in the German-Dutch Wind Tunnel (DNW). Included are wake vortex field measurements over the advancing and retreating sides of the rotor operating at a typical descent landing condition important for impulsive blade-vortex interaction (BVI) noise. Also included are advancing side results for rotor angle variations from climb to steep descent. Using detailed PIV vector maps of the vortex fields, methods of extracting key vortex parameters are examined and a new method was developed and evaluated. An objective processing method, involving a center-of-vorticity criterion and a vorticity 'disk' integration, was used to determine vortex core size, strength, core velocity distribution characteristics, and unsteadiness. These parameters are mapped over the rotor disk and offer unique physical insight for these parameters of importance for rotor noise and vibration prediction.Burley, Casey L. and Brooks, Thomas F. and vanderWall, Berend and Richard, Hughes and Raffel, Markus and Beaumier, Philippe and Delrieux, Yves and Lim, Joon W. and Yu, Yung H. and Tung, CheeAmes Research Center; Langley Research CenterROTOR AERODYNAMICS; VORTICES; WAKES; BO-105 HELICOPTER; ROTARY WINGS; WIND TUNNEL TESTS; PARTICLE IMAGE VELOCIMETRY; WIND TUNNELS; BLADE-VORTEX INTERACTION; BLADE SLAP NOISE
Download or read book Vortex Dominated Flows written by Lu Ting and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2005 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Honoring the contributions of one of the field''s leading experts, Lu Ting, this indispensable volume contains important new results at the cutting edge of research. A wide variety of significant new analytical and numerical results in critical areas are presented, including point vortex dynamics, superconductor vortices, cavity flows, vortex breakdown, shock/vortex interaction, wake flows, magneto-hydrodynamics, rotary wake flows, and hypersonic vortex phenomena. The book will be invaluable for those interested in the state of the art of vortex dominated flows, both from a theoretical and applied perspective. Professor Lu Ting and Joe Keller have worked together for over 40 years. In their first joint work entitled OC Periodic vibrations of systems governed by nonlinear partial differential equationsOCO, perturbation analysis and bifurcation theory were used to determine the frequencies and modes of vibration of various physical systems. The novelty was the application to partial differential equations of methods which, previously, had been used almost exclusively on ordinary differential equations. Professsor Lu Ting is an expert in both fluid dynamics and the use of matched asymptotic expansions. His physical insight into fluid flows has led the way to finding the appropriate mathematical simplications used in the solutions to many difficult flow problems."

This book was released on 2012 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tumbling tip vortex effect of a reduced-scale, 1 m diameter, four-bladed rotor during hover is studied using vortex methods, combined with a center of mass analysis approach. Measurements of all three components of the velocity field are acquired using a stereo PIV system synchronized to capture up to 500 degrees of vortex age, with 10 degree wake age offsets, during hover conditions. The nominal operating condition of the rotor is at a rotational rate of 1520RPM, corresponding to ReC = 248,000 with a chord length of 58.5mm. The rotor is operated with a pitch of 7.2± 0.5 degrees and a CT/sigma of 0.045. The far wake vortex tumbling phenomenon is captured and described. It is shown that tip vortices from two blades tumble through approximately 90 degrees of rotation before they coalesce. It is also seen that the constituent parent vortices do not combine to create a stronger daughter vortex as was previously thought to happen. Instead, the merged vortex has a lower large-radius circulation than either of its parent vortices. An accurate characterization and prediction of the trajectory of the far wake vortex tumbling can enhance the ability to predict and alleviate the resuspension of particles during brownout as well as provide a database for far wake validation of CFD codes.

This book was released on 1973 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All fixed wing aircraft generate trailing vortex wakes whose circulatory strength is dependent on flight conditions and aircraft geometry. A rotor also generates a vortex wake. A vortex sheet is shed from each blade. Each sheet rolls up rapidly outboard to form a tip vortex. The purpose of the study reported here is to estimate the rotor wake geometry and velocity field downstream of the rotor for the particular case where the rotor wake exhibits strong similarities to the fixed wing wake. A method is developed by which the helicopter far field wake can be readily compared to the far field wake generated by an equivalent wing. (Author).

Book Synopsis A Method for Assessing the Impact of Wake Vortices of USAF Operations by : George Kurylowich
Download or read book A Method for Assessing the Impact of Wake Vortices of USAF Operations written by George Kurylowich and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience as a consultant to the Safety Office at Norton AFB led to compiling the engineering tools presented so that this report can be used by engineering personnel to investigate future incidents/accidents and existing USAF operations that are impacted by the vortical wake hazard. The approach presented is amenable to easy hand computations. Mixed airplane/helicopter operations can be assessed, since the engineering tools to determine the location and strength of the rotor downwash field behind a helicopter are presented. Finally, a simplified mathematical model is given to represent this hazard for use in USAF simulators, to make pilots aware of the problems associated with operating in wake-contaminated airspace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The helicopter rotor wake is among the most complex flow-fields in aerodynamics. Despite the fact that a large amount of computational and experimental work on the rotor wake has been published, little of a quantitative nature is known about the origin of the main component of the rotor wake, the tip-vortex, as a function of the rotor speed, rotor blade geometry, and angle of attack. The primary objective of this work is to predict the formation of the rotor tip vortex as a function of physical parameters such as angle of attack, rotor speed, and blade aspect ratio. While the rotor-blade tip-vortex is of primary interest, the techniques developed are applicable to fixed wings as well.

Book Synopsis Principles of Helicopter Aerodynamics by : J. Gordon Leishman
Download or read book Principles of Helicopter Aerodynamics written by J. Gordon Leishman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-12-23 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Helicopters are highly capable and useful rotating-wing aircraft with roles that encompass a variety of civilian and military applications. Their usefulness lies in their unique ability to take off and land vertically, to hover stationary relative to the ground, and to fly forward, backward, or sideways. These unique flying qualities, however, come at a high cost including complex aerodynamic problems, significant vibrations, high levels of noise, and relatively large power requirements compared to fixed-wing aircraft. This book, written by an internationally recognized expert, provides a thorough, modern treatment of the aerodynamic principles of helicopters and other rotating-wing vertical lift aircraft. Every chapter is extensively illustrated and concludes with a bibliography and homework problems. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, practising engineers, and researchers will welcome this thorough and up-to-date text on rotating-wing aerodynamics.
