Modelling the helicopter rotor aerodynamics at forward flight with free wake model and URANS method

The presented work is dedicated to the numerical study of the aerodynamic characteristics of the helicopter rotor. Two approaches to modeling of the rotor are applied: the free wake model developed by the Authors with using steady airfoil characteristics and the Unsteady RANS method based on the An...
