Abstract

The aeroelastic coupling dynamic equation of helicopter rotor is essentially a set of nonlinear and inhomogeneous equations with large rigidity, in which the inhomogeneous term is a function of blade motion and aerodynamic load. In this paper, the precise time integration method and its derived formats are introduced to solve the rotor blade dynamic equation, and the Duhamel integral item can be calculated by various numerical methods. In terms of computational accuracy and numerical stability, the precise Kutta method and high precision direct integration method (HPD method) are carefully selected to compare with classical Runge–Kutta method numerically. HPD method is used to solve the rotor blade dynamic equation, and the transient response of the rotor blade is examined by Newmark and implicit trapezoidal methods. Results indicate that HPD method dominates the classical Runge–Kutta method in step size independence, and gets close to implicit methods in numerical stability and accuracy for dynamic equation of helicopter rotor blade.
