Abstract

Analysis of the Effect of Lift Offset on Aerodynamical Characteristics of a Coaxial Rotor

Reference URL

N/A

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System

In order to perform a rotorcraft analysis tool.

Achievements of the Year

Numerical analyses are performed using a rotorcraft CFD tool to research a coaxial rotor utilized in the next-generation rotorcraft. These numerical analyses aim to elucide the effect of rotor parameters on the aerodynamic performance of a coaxial rotor. The numerical results suggest that a rotor parameter, lift offset improves the rotor aerodynamic performance. Lift offset setting depending on the flight conditions can optimize the rotor efficiency. This effect is achieved by a slight increase in rotor drag and a huge reduction of rotor power.

Annual Reoprt Figures for 2020

Fig.1: The configuration of lift offset. Lift offset increases lift at the rotor advancing side. Rotor rolling moment due to the lift diffrence between the rotor advancing side and the retreating side is canceled by rotor counter-rotation. Lift offset is expressed by the ratio of the rotor rolling moment and the rotor thrust.

 

Annual Reoprt Figures for 2020

Fig.2: The transition of equivalent lift-to-drag ratio of coaxial rotor against each advance ratio. Equivalent lift-to-drag ratio shows the aerodynamic performance of a rotor. The result suggests that lift offset (LO) improves equivalent lift-to-drag ratio.
