| Popis: | A computer program has been developed to solve a three-dimensional conservative formulation of the full-potential equation. Its ability to solve transonic, unsteady rotor flows is demonstrated by comparison to forward flight non-lifting pressure data at low to moderate advance ratios. A 'split potential' formulation has been added to the code which incorporates known vorticity fields into the full-potential calculation. Using this methodology, rotor wake contributions have been incorporated into the computer code. Pressure results are presented for lifting rotors in hover. These results are compared to experimental data as well as to other predictions. |
