Main rotor-tail rotor intraction and its implications for helicopter directional control [PDF]
, 2008 Aerodynamic interference between the main and tail rotor can have a strong negative influence on the flight mechanics of a conventional helicopter. Significant unsteadiness in the tail rotor loading is encountered under certain flight conditions, but the

Wind Tunnel Test of Counter‐Rotating Dual Rotor Wind Turbine With Double Rotational Armature Design
Wind Energy, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2025.ABSTRACT This study evaluates the performance of a counter‐rotating dual rotor wind turbine (CR‐DRWT) with 2 m2 rotor radius equipped with a double rotational armature in an open jet wind tunnel. With only one similar‐sized design previously assessed in a wind tunnel, this study offers valuable validation material for the literature.

Helicopter far-field acoustic levels as a function of reduced main-rotor advancing blade-tip Mach number [PDF]
During the design of a helicopter, the weight, engine, rotor speed, and rotor geometry are given significant attention when considering the specific operations for which the helicopter will be used. However, the noise radiated from the helicopter and its
