  • Effectiveness of the Compound Helicopter Configuration in Rotorcraft Performance Increase
    transactions on aerospace research 4(261) 2020, pp.81-106 DOI: 10.2478/tar-2020-0023 eISSN 2545-2835 effectiveness of the compound helicopter configuration in rotorcraft performance increase Jarosław stanisławski Retired doctor of technical sciences [email protected] • ORCID: 0000-0003-1629-4632 abstract The article presents the results of calculations applied to compare flight envelopes of varying helicopter configurations. Performance of conventional helicopter with the main and tail rotors, in the case of compound helicopter, can be improved by applying wings and pusher propellers which generate an additional lift and horizontal thrust. The simplified model of a helicopter structure, consisting of a stiff fuselage and the main rotor treated as a stiff disk, is applied for evaluation of the rotorcraft performance and the required range of control system deflections. The more detailed model of deformable main rotor blades, applying the Galerkin method, is used to calculate rotor loads and blade deformations in defined flight states. The calculations of simulated flight states are performed considering data of a hypothetical medium class helicopter with the take-off mass of 6,000kg. In the case of both of the helicopter configurations, the articulated main rotor hub is taken under consideration. According to the Galerkin method, the elastic blade model allows to compute blade deformations as a combination of the blade bending and torsional eigen modes. Introduction of additional wing and pusher propellers allows to increase the range of operational speed over 300 km/h. Results of the simulation are presented as time- runs of rotor loads and blade deformations and in a form of disk distribution plots of rotor parameters.

  • Clean Aviation
    Strategic research and innovation agenda The proposed European Partnership for Clean Aviation Draft - Version July 2020 Courtesy of DLR STRATEGIC RESEARCH AND INNOVATION AGENDA Foreword Substantial amounts of information contained within this document originate from before the coronavirus crisis Information and figures, data and forecasts included in this document originate from before the coronavirus-re- lated crisis. It is much too early to understand the full impact of the coronavirus-related crisis on short and mid- term traffic. However, it is clear that this crisis calls for even more action from the European Union institutions on green innovation and in support of the aviation sector’s transformation than there has been to date. • The need and challenge of tackling climate change is an unrelenting priority. • Connectivity and mobility are essential to humanity. While we believe the long-term need for connectivity and mobility will remain strong, and demand for aviation will recover, the short- to medium-term will be significantly impacted. • The capability of the sector to self-finance is rapidly eroding due to the severity of the economic and finan- cial emergency that is propelling the aviation and aeronautics industries into an unprecedented crisis. • For Europe to maintain a leading role in aviation its industry needs a level playing field. On the worldwide stage other economic powers such as the US and China are heavily supporting their sectors with R&I. The US has recently announced a significant stimulus package for the aeronautics industry going well beyond previous levels of R&I support and tax breaks. China’s capacity to invest is comparable.
