Popis: In this work, the Blade Vortex Interaction (BVI) airloads characteristic for a rotor in descending flight condition is investigated using a nonlinear flexible multibody dynamics analysis code DYMORE. A free vortex wake model is incorporated into the comprehensive analysis system and improvement of airloads prediction as well as collective and cyclic pitch control settings is obtained over the finite-state dynamic inflow model that is adopted in the conventional DYMORE analysis. The three test conditions in the HART (Higher harmonic control Aeroacoustic Rotor Test) II are considered to illustrate the present investigation. It is found that the BVI airloads characteristic is significantly influenced by the higher harmonic pitch control inputs. The influence of BVI oscillatory peaks along with the miss-distance between the blade and the vortices is studied in detail to identify the mechanism of reducing noise and vibration in the HART II experiment.
