内容記述 | This study considers the modification of existing aircraft to the folding tilt rotor (FTR) design configuration, and then addresses the vehicle design requirements necessary to demonstrate the FTR concept throughout the hover/transition high-speed envelope. Three potential candidates are considered: (1) the Bell/Boeing V-22 Osprey combined with either the existing TF-34 convertible engine or a conceptual convertible engine utilizing the torque-converter-coupled fan configuration; (2) a combination of the same powerplants with a modified Lockheed S-3A Viking; and (3) the NASA/Army/BELL XV-15 airframe mated with a conceptual generic turbofan engine with a fixed-pitch fan coupled to the engine by means of a torque converter. Required aircraft modifications are identified and recommended R&D efforts for engine/rotor/airframe integration are presented. |
