Numerical Investigations of a Tip Turbine Aerodynamic Design in a Propulsion System for VTOL Vehicles
High thrust and low specific fuel consumption (SFC) are important for vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) vehicles. An effective way to decrease the SFC is to increase the bypass ratio (BPR) of the propulsion system. The air-driven fan (or fan-in-wing) has a very high bypass ratio and has proved to...
