The object of this study is in the development of the computer program to predict the performance of rotor in hovering by getting the aerodynamic load acting on blade. For this work the vortex theory was chosen among the aerodynamic theories, blade was replaced by planar vortex panels, and prescribed wake for the wake geometry was selected and then represented by vortex lattices. To get the aerodynamic load on blade, flow was assumed to be incompressible, irrotational and steady, and the surface boundary condition of inviscid flow was used as boundary condition. Then the relationships between this load and flight condition and blade geometry were examined.
