Data-driven analysis and new findings on the loss of tail rotor effectiveness in helicopter accidents [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Loss of tail rotor effectiveness (LTE) is an unstable dynamic phenomenon that affects single-rotor helicopters and frequently leads to accidents. LTE accidents recur with troubling regularity and show no sign of abatement.

Main Rotor Wake Interference Effects on Tail Rotor Thrust in Crosswind

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2021
Reverse pedal operational property in front crosswind flight condition is a potential hazard for accidents involving loss of tail rotor effectiveness (LTE), which is closely related to the main rotor (MR) wake interference on the tail rotor (TR).

Helicopter Tail Rotor Thrust and Main Rotor Wake Coupling in Crosswind Flight [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Simulation of Tail Boom Vibrations Using Main Rotor-Fuselage Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

open access: yesApplied Sciences (Switzerland), 2017
In this work, fully-resolved rotor-fuselage interactional aerodynamics is used as the forcing term in a model based on the Euler-Bernoulli equation, aiming to simulate helicopter tail-boom vibration.

Methods for Attenuation of Helicopter [PDF]

open access: yesفناوری در مهندسی هوافضا, 2023
Helicopters can be a source of loud noise. The high production noise of helicopters makes them unsuitable for densely populated areas, especially in low-flying conditions.

Computational study of aerodynamic characteristics of the Mi-8 type heli-copter’s tail rotors on the hovering with crosswind taking into account main rotor interaction

open access: yesАвіаційно-космічна техніка та технологія, 2021
Under certain conditions of a helicopter flight, the main rotor can exert a rather strong effect on the tail rotor, changing its traction and power characteristics.
