Helicopter Tail Rotor Thrust and Main Rotor Wake Coupling in Crosswind Flight [PDF]
Journal of Aircraft, 2010 The tail rotor of a helicopter with a single main rotor configuration can experience a significant reduction in thrust when the aircraft operates in crosswind flight. Brown’s vorticity transport model has been used to simulate a main rotor and tail rotor system translating at a sideslip angle that causes the tail rotor to interact with the main rotor ...

Main Rotor-Tail Rotor Interaction and Its Implications for Helicopter Directional Control [PDF]
Journal of the American Helicopter Society, 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 character of the unsteadiness can depend on the direction of rotation of the tail rotor.

Variable-speed tail rotors for helicopters with variable-speed main rotors [PDF]
The Aeronautical Journal, 2017 ABSTRACTVariable tail rotor speed is investigated as a method for reducing tail rotor power, and improving helicopter performance. A helicopter model able to predict the main rotor and tail rotor powers is presented, and the flight test data of the UH-60A helicopter is used for validation. The predictions of the main and tail rotor powers are generally
