Comparative Study of Coaxial Main Rotor Aerodynamics in the Hover with the Usage of Two Methods of Computational Fluid Dynamics

The paper is focused on numerical modeling of the aerodynamic characteristics of a full-scale coaxial main rotor in hover. The simulation was performed using two approaches of computational fluid dynamics (CFD): the original free wake model (FWM) developed by the authors and the unsteady Reynolds-av...
