Helicopter tail rotor orthogonal blade vortex interaction [PDF]
The aerodynamic operating environment of the helicopter is particularly complex and, to some extent, dominated by the vortices trailed from the main and tail rotors. These vortices not only determine the form of the induced flow field but also interact
