Abstract

Generally, tone noise is generated at the rotary wing and helicopter. BVI(Blade-Vortex Interaction) noise is one of the helicopter's tone noise. The BVI noise is governed by tip-vortex characteristics such as vortex size, strength and trajectory. To avoid BVI, many methods have been developed and proposed. In this paper, rotating blade with active tab was numerically investigated to reduce BVI noise. For flow and noise simulation, the lifting surface approach and the acoustic analogy were used. Using numerical methods, the noise directivity and maximum noise position were predicted.
