Application of pressure head theory to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of the helicopter main rotor
A method is proposed for calculating main aerodynamic characteristics of the main rotor of the Mi-26 helicopter: a lift, a reactive moment, a required power of the propulsion system, a speed of the inductive air flow, a throttle response coefficient, a speed of the horizontal flight. This method bas...

| Summary: | A method is proposed for calculating main aerodynamic characteristics of the main rotor of the Mi-26 helicopter: a lift, a reactive moment, a required power of the propulsion system, a speed of the inductive air flow, a throttle response coefficient, a speed of the horizontal flight. This method based on the pressure propeller theory. The parameters of the Mi-26 helicopter and the propeller of the experimental setup calculated according to the pressure theory of the main rotor are experimentally confirmed. The percentage of the discrepancy between the statistical data on the aerodynamic characteristics of the Mi-26 helicopter rotor calculated with the pressure theory does not exceed 1.5%. |
