Chapter 6 Flashcards
With forward speed increase, how will the reverse flow area change and how will it
influence the rotor aerodynamics
The reverse flow area will increase with forward speed, and it would reduce the rotor thrust
and increase the rotor drag.
Write the comprehensive expression of the blade control angle and indicate which is the
longitudinal and lateral cyclic pitch.

How will the flapping offset provide additional control moments and how will it influence the
pitching and rolling damping?
The flapping offset gives a moment to let the rotor thrust contribute to the control moment,
which is called the hub moment. The flapping offset can make the rotor provide additional
pitching and rolling damping.
