Predicting Rotor Heat Transfer Using the Viscous Blade Element Momentum Theory and Unsteady Vortex Lattice Method
Calculating the unsteady convective heat transfer on helicopter blades is the first step in the prediction of ice accretion and the design of ice-protection systems. Simulations using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) successfully model the complex aerodynamics of rotors as well as the heat transfe...
