The phenomenon of dynamic stall

TL;DR: In this paper, the general features of dynamic stall on oscillating airfoils are explained in terms of the vortex shedding phenomenon, and the important differences between static stall, light dynamic stall, and deep stall are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Computational prediction of airfoil dynamic stall

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the major approaches and results obtained in recent years and to point out existing deficiencies and possibilities for improvements for the prediction of dynamic stall in aerodynamic bodies such as airfoils and wings.

Bramwell's Helicopter Dynamics

TL;DR: The second edition of Helicopter Dynamics by A.R. Bramwell as mentioned in this paper provides a detailed summary of helicopter aerodynamics, stability, control, structural dynamics, vibration, and aeroelastic and aeromechanical stability.

Rotorcraft Aerodynamics Models for a Comprehensive Analysis

Wayne Johnson
TL;DR: In this paper, a force balance method for calculating section loads of a bearingless rotor rotor was proposed, and the results were compared with the results from a full-scale wind tunnel test.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic Stall in Pitching Airfoils: Aerodynamic Damping and Compressibility Effects

TL;DR: The topic is technologically important owing to the desire to develop next-generation rotorcraft that employ adaptive rotor dynamic stall control and large-eddy simulation could be a viable approach although it remains computationally intensive.

An investigation of full-scale helicopter rotors at high advance ratios and advancing tip Mach numbers

TL;DR: Tabulated performance data of full-scale rotary wings at high advance ratios and advancing tip Mach numbers based on wind tunnel tests are presented in this article, where the authors show that rotary wing performance is comparable to that of a single-rotor aircraft.

Two-dimensional tests of airfoils oscillating near stall. volume ii: data report

Lewis Gray, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a discussion of the test facility, models, and data gathering and reduction system used in the tests of oscillating airfoils, and actual computer data that resulted from the wind tunnel tests of the airfoILS.

Two-dimensional wind tunnel tests of an h-34 main rotor airfoil section

TL;DR: In this article, a Sikorsky H-34 main rotor production blade was tested in the two-dimensional channel of the United Aircraft Corporation 8 foot wind tunnel at Mach Numbers from 0.30 to 0.80.
