Scale Dependence of Coaxial Rotor Wakes: Insights from High-Pressure Wind Tunnel Testing
Department of Mechanical Engineering Graduate Seminar
PRESENTATION: Scale Dependence of Coaxial Rotor Wakes: Insights from High-Pressure Wind Tunnel Testing. Coaxial rotor configurations are increasingly common in aerospace applications such as electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) rotorcraft. However, their underlying fluid dynamics remain comparatively understudied relative to conventional single rotors. This talk examines the Reynolds number (scale) dependence of a coaxial rotor in...
