초록

본 연구에서는 주로터, 동체, 그리고 꼬리로터를 포함한 UH-60A 전기체 형상에 대한 비정상 유동 해석을 수행하였다. 개발된 로터해석용 유동 해석코드를 이용하여 고속 전진 비행 및 저속 전진비행 조건에 대한 해석을 수행하였으며, 해석코드의 검증을 위해 주로터에서의 비정상 공력 하중을 비행시험 및 타 연구자들의 해석 결과와 비교하였다. 주로터만 존재하는 형상, 주로터와 동체만 존재하는 형상, 그리고 꼬리로터만 존재하는 형상에 대한 해석 결과를 전기체 형상에 대한 해석 결과와 비교함으로써 헬리콥터 각 컴포넌트 간의 공기력 간섭현상을 분석하였다. 동체는 주로터에서 발생하는 내리흐름 분포를 변화시킴으로써 주로터의 수직력 분포를 변화시키는 요인이 됨을 확인하였으며, 주로터 끝단으로부터 발생한 와류와 꼬리로터 블레이드가 충돌함에 따라 강한 간섭현상이 발생함을 확인하였다

In the present study, unsteady calculations have been performed to simulate flows around a UH-60A full configuration including main rotor, fuselage, and tail rotor. A flow solver developed for helicopter aerodynamic analysis was used for the simulation of the complete helicopter in high-speed and low-speed forward flight. Unsteady vibratory loads on the main rotor blades were compared with flight test and other calculated data for the assessment of the present flow solver. Aerodynamic interaction of the three components of the helicopter was investigated by comparing with the results of main-rotor-alone, main rotor and fuselage, and tail-rotor-alone configurations. It was found that the existence of the fuselage has an effect on the normal force distribution of the main rotor by varying downwash distribution on the rotor disc, and tip vortices trailed from the main rotor strongly interact with the tail-rotor.
