Numerical Study on the Transition Performance of a Scale Model Helicopter from Hovering to Vertical Autorotation

Autorotation characteristics for typical scale model helicopter in terms of induced velocity, rate of descent, main rotor rotational speed, thrust and torque were studied. Power-off after hovering manoeuvre was picked for a case of study because of their critical induced velocity state. Contribution...
