Tilt rotor aircraft was developed for satisfying VSTOL (vertical short take off and landing) capability and cruise performance. However the noise generated by tilt rotor system causes one of the most serious problems. In this paper, noise characteristics of tilt rotor system in hovering flight are predicted by using free wake method and Lowson's formula. The flow field of the tilt rotor is simulated by using time marching free wake method, and the free field acoustic pressure is calculated through Lowson's formula. The predicted results are compared with experimental data at various observing positions. In the near field, they show good agreement with experimental data regardless of rotating speed and collective pitch angles of 6, 8 and 10 degree, although there are some discrepancies between prediction and experiment in the far field and at the rotating axis in the near field. It seems that the reason of these discrepancies is difference of unsteady force fluctuation between experiment and calculation.

호버링하는 무인기에 대한 지면효과 분석을 위해 여러 고도에 대해 전산해석을 수행하였다. 지면 효과는 무인기 동체 아랫면의 압력을 증가시켜 추가적인 양력을 발생시킨다. 그러나 고도가 로터 직경과 거의 같은 3m에 이르면 지면효과가 거의 소멸되고 3m이상에서는 일정한 크기의 양력을 발생한다.

This study analyzes stress, fatigue and vibration on main rotor and body of helicopter. The maximum stress is shown on adjoint part between body and main rotor at the lower position of main rotor. As the maximum displacement amplitude is happened at 4000Hz, there is no resonance and the state of helicopter becomes safe at hovering without the abnormal air current and the disabled rotor. Among the cases of nonuniform fatigue loads, 'SAE bracket history' with the severest change of load becomes most unstable but 'Sample history' becomes most stable. In case of 'Sample History' with the average stress of 0MPa to $-10^5MPa$ and the amplitude stress of 0MPa to $8.539{\times}10^5MPa$, the possibility of maximum damage becomes 3%. This stress state can be shown with 5 times more than the damage possibility of 'SAE bracket history' or 'SAE transmission'. The structural result of this study by using the analysis of vibration and fatigue can be effectively utilized for safe and durable design of helicopter.

Vane tip 개념을 도입하여 소음 특성을 개선하도록 설계된 차세대 로터 블레이드(NRSB-I)의 공력 성능을 기존의 BERP 블레이드와 비교하기 위하여, 제자리 비행에 대한 점성 압축성 계산을 수행하였다. 깃끝 영역의 면적감소에 의하여 설계된 로터 블레이드의 절대 추력이 6-7% 정도 감소하지만, 동력계수의 감소폭이 더 크기 때문에 제자리 비행 성능상의 손실은 거의 없는 것으로 파악되었다. 또한, 깃끝 절단부에서 발생한 와류는 블레이드 표면을 지날 때 확산에 의하여 그 강도가 현저하게 약화되므로, 설계요구조건을 만족시키기 위해서는 절단부 위치에 펜스가 필요함을 확인할 수 있었다.

A quad-copter or quad rotor system is an unmanned flying machine having four engines, which their thrust force is produced by four propellers. Its stable control is very important and has widely been studied. It is a typical example of a nonlinear system. So, it is difficult to get a desired control performance by conventional control algorithms. In this paper, we propose the design of a vectored sum defuzzification based fuzzy logic system for the hovering control of a quad-copter. We first summarize its dynamics and introduce a vectored sum defuzzification scheme. And then we design a vectored sum defuzzification based fuzzy logic system. for the hovering control of the quad-copter. Finally, in order to check the feasibility of the proposed system we present some simulation examples.

In this study, an experimental device was fabricated to evaluate the hovering flight performance of a single rotor on a hexacopter used for river surveillance, and a thrust performance test was conducted. In addition, the 3D profile of the propeller was extracted by 3D scanning and CFD analysis was performed using ANSYS CFD 14.5 based on the extracted 3D model of the propeller. The aerodynamic characteristics were compared with the results of the performance tests and CFD analysis, and the vortex structure corresponding to each motor rotational speed in revolutions per minute (rpm) was identified. In the future, we plan to provide valuable data for multicopter propeller design and performance verification.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that have been recently commercialized can largely be divided into fixed-wing aircraft and rotor aircraft by their styles and flight characteristics. Although the fixed-wing aircraft represents higher power efficiency, higher speed, longer flight distance and larger loading weight than the rotor aircraft, they have a disadvantage of requiring a space for take-off and landing. On the other hand, the rotor aircraft can implement vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) and represents various flight modes (hovering, steep bank turns and low-speed flights). But they require both precision take-off control and attitude control. In this study, we used a quad-tilt rotor UAV to combine advantages in both the fixed-wing aircraft and the rotor aircraft. The quad-tilt rotor (QTR) system was designed and constructed by adding a tilt device with a servo motor to a general quad-rotor vehicle.

중첩격자를 이용한 3차원 압축성 Navier-Stokes 코드를 사용하여 정지비행 로터 주위의 유동장을 해석하였다. 후류격자의 간격, 수치기법의 정확도, 난류 모델 등에 따른 유동코드의 수치특성을 확인하였다. 두 가지 형태의 중첩격자 시스템을 사용하여 계산을 수행하였다. 공력 및 끝단 와류의 거동을 Caradonna 등의 실험과 비교하였다. 표면 압력분포 및 끝단 와류의 거동은 실험값과 잘 일치하였다. 적용한 수치해석 기법에 따라 압력분포는 거의 변화가 없는 반면, 후류의 거동은 상당히 큰 편차를 보였다. 자동화된 Cut-paste 알고리즘을 사용한 Chimera 기법을 사용했을 때의 결과는 예상과 달리 기존의 Chimera 기법을 사용하였을 때보다 더 약한 와류 강도를 보였다.
