内容記述 | Recent experience with the HELIX-I code is presented, and its ability to predict the flow and performance of both conventional rotors and the unconventional anhedral parabolic tip rotor utilized on the Super Puma MK2 is described. HELIX-I is a standard full-potential rotor code having the ability to efficiently predict the detailed flow on a rotor blade, including 3D, transonic, and weak viscous effects (using appropriate boundary layer analyses). The resulting code is the first full-potential CFD code with the ability to model free wake convection and the first CFD code of any type to predict hover performance. |
