Abstract

In this paper, the diagonal implicit harmonic balance method is applied to analyze helicopter rotor blade flow. The periodic boundary condition for Fourier coefficients is also applied in hover and forward flight conditions. It is available enough to simulate the forward flight problem with only one rotor blade using the periodic boundary condition in the frequency domain. In order to demonstrate the present method, Caradonna & Tung's rotor blades were used and the results were compared to the time-accurate method and experimental data.
