Westbrook-Netherton, O., & Toomer, C. (2014, July). An investigation into predicting vortex ring state in rotary aircraft. Paper presented at RAeS Applied Aerodynamics Conference, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK
Results from wind tunnel experiments and Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulations have been presented which suggest it may be possible to predict when a rotary aircraft will enter Vortex Ring State (VRS). Results suggest that the formation of a... Read More about An investigation into predicting vortex ring state in rotary aircraft.
