This paper describes the aeroelastic stability test of the small-scaled 'Next-generation Blade(NRSB)' with NRSH (next-generation hub system) and HCTH hingeless hub system in hover and forward flight conditions. Excitation tests of rotor system installed in GSRTS (general small-scale rotor test system) at KARI (Korea Aerospace Research Institute) were carried out to get lead-lag damping ratio of blades with flexures as hub flexure. MBA(moving block analysis) technique was used for the estimation of lead-lag damping ratio. First, NRSB-1F blades with HCTH hub system, then NRSB- 1F with NRSH hub system were tested. Second, NRSB-2F blades with NRSH hub system were tested. Tests were done on the ground and in the wind tunnel according to the test conditions of hover and forward flight, respectively. Non-rotating natural frequencies, non-rotating damping ratios and rotating natural frequencies were showed similar level for each cases. Estimated damping ratios of NRSB-1F, NRSB-2F with HCTH and NRSH were above 0.5%, and damping ratio increased by collective pitch angle increasement. Furthermore damping ratios of NRSB-2F were higher than damping ratios of NRSB-1F in high Pitch angle. It was confirmed that the blade design for noise reduction would give observable improvement in aeroelastic stability compared to paddle blade and NRSB-1F design.

The effect of the changes in parameter angles(precone, droop, sweep) on the lead-lag damping was focused on. Experiment was made with hingeless 4-blade rotors and NACA 0012 airfoil. For the measurement of the rotating natural frequencies and lead-lag damping, non-rotating swash plate was oscillated at the regressing lag mode frequency and the data were acquired after the excitation was cut off. Analysis was made using a finite element formulation based on Hamilton's principle. The main blade is assumed as elastic beams. Quasi-steady strip theory is used to obtain aerodynamic forces, and non-circulatory forces are also included.

The aeroelastic stability analysis of composite bearingless rotors is investigated using a large deflection beam theory in hover. The bearingless rotor configuration consists of a single flexbeam with a wrap-around type torque tube and the pitch links located at the leading edge and trailing edge of the torque tube root. For the analysis of composite bearingless rotors, flexbeam is assumed to be a rectangular section made of laminate. Two-dimensional quasi-steady strip theory and Loewy's aerodynamic theory with the lift deficiency function are used for unsteady aerodynamic computation. The finite element equations of motion for beams are obtained using Hamilton's principle. Numerical results of selected bearingless rotor configurations are obtained for the lay-up of laminae in the flexbeam and pitch links location.

본 논문에서는 토목 구조물에 대한 바람의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 수치 기법으로 해석하였다. 지간이 긴 현수교는 바람에 의한 공력탄성학적 분안정성에 놓일 수 있으므로, 설계 시 공기력은 주요한 고려사항이며 공탄성 안정성은 반드시 확인되어야 한다. 풍속이 임계 플러터 속도를 넘어서면, 교량 구조물은 바람과 상호작용에 의한 플러터 현상으로 인해 붕괴된다. 교량 단면의 공탄성 해석을 위해 전산유체역학과 전산구조해석을 이용하였으며, Navier-Stokes방정식을 사용하여 공기력을 구하였다. 본 연구에서는 구조 강성에 따른 교량 구조물의 임계 플러터 속도가 연구된다. 교량 단면의 임계 플러터 속도는 구조강성의 변화에 민감함을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문은 복합재 패들형 블레이드를 장착한 축소 힌지없는 로터 시스템의 정지 및 전진 비행조건에 대한 회전시험 기술과 결과에 대한 것이다. 축소 로터 시스템은 실물크기 로터 시스템의 구조 자료를 이용하여 프루드 축소화하였고, 허브 flexure는 동일한 로터의 동력학적 특성을 기준으로 금속재와 복합재 2가지를 제작하였다. 2종류의 힌지없는 허브시스템을 KARI의 GSRTS에 장착후 회전 시험을 실시하여 로터 시스템의 리드래그 감쇠비와 공력 하중을 측정하였다. 리드래그 모드의 감쇠비를 산출하기 위해 MBA(Moving Block Analysis)기법을 사용하였고, 허브와 주축 사이에 6분력 발란스를 장착하고, 블레이드에 스트레인게이지를 부착하여 공력하중을 측정하였다. 시험은 제자리 및 전진비행 조건에 따라 지상 및 풍동에서 각각 수행하였다.

This paper described that rotating test and fatigue test of a small-scale hingeless hub system with composite rectangular blades. Generally Rotating stability and fatigue test technique is one of Key-technology on test and evaluation for helicopter rotor system Rotating test of hingeless rotor system was achieved by means of rotor vibration characteristic and aeroelastic stability test GSRTS, equipped with hydraulic actuator and 6-component rotating balance was used to test hingeless rotor system especially for an observation of blade motion including flawing, lagging and feathering. Rotating test was done in hover and forward flight condition. Small-scaled blade fatigue test condition was determined by blade load analysis with the reference table of composite materials(S-N curve). Fatigue test bench was developed for the estimation of blade fatigue life, and tested its characteristic.
