Comparative Study of Soft In-Plane and Stiff In-Plane Tiltrotor Blade Aerodynamics in Conversion Flight, Using CFD-CSD Coupling Approach
Tiltrotors permit aircrafts to operate vertically with lift, yet convert to ordinary forward flight with thrust. The challenge is to design a tiltrotor blade yielding maximum lift and thrust that converts smoothly without losing integrity or efficiency. The two types of blades, soft in-plane and sti...
