Numerical Study of Blade-Vortex Interaction (BVI) Noise Capturing

Tanabe, Yasutada,Saito, Shigeru,Takasaki, Keisuke,Fujita, Hajime The Korean Society for Aeronautical and Space Scie 2008 International Journal of Aeronautical and Space Sc Vol.9 No.2

The noise is one of the serious problems concerning helicopters operations. The issue of helicopter external noise generated mainly from a helicopter rotor has always affected the use of rotorcrafts, especially in the urban environment. The noise sources depend on the flight configurations. In particular, a noise generated by the interaction between blades and tip vortices mainly occurs during descent flight. This noise is called blade-vortex interaction (BVI) noise, and this BVI noise is particularly penalizing for helicopters. In this paper, a numerical study to capture the BVI noise is carried out. The numerical study is performed in two phases. In the first phase, a 2D simulation based on parallel BYI event of Kitapliglu et al experiment is performed. In the second phase, 3D simulation based on HART Ⅱ experiment is performed. Several experimental data such as thrust, torque, blade sectional load, its derivative and vortex location are compared with calculation results and the comparison showed reasonably good agreement.

(Special issue on high-power laser opens new application fields) Performance of stimulated Brillouin scattering used in several heavy fluorocarbons liquids and perfluoropolyether liquids

YOSHIDA, Hidetsugu,NAGASAWA, Muneyuki,OKADA, Hajime,FUJITA, Hisanori,NAKATSUKA, Masahiro,PARKS, Hyunmin レーザー學會 2008 レーザー硏究 Vol.36 No.9

Heavy fluorocarbons and perfluoropolyether liquids are ideal media for high power stimulated Brillouin scat-tering experiments from ultraviolet to infrared laser. Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) reflectivity and threshold of new SBS liquids were measured systematically at four wavelengths (1064, 532, 355 and 266 nm). Fluorinert FC-72, -75, -77 and Galden HT 70, -135 exhibits high reflectivity of over 90 % and excellent fidel-ity in phase conjugation for over 100 mJ, 10 ns optical pulse at 1064, 532, and 355 run. Among them, FC-77 and HT 70 were found to be good candidates to replace FC-72, -75 liquids which previously were known to be a good SBS media up to now. Heavy fluorocarbons and perfluoropolyether liquids are most promising as a phase conjugate SBS mirror for all solid-state high-energy lasers because of its high damage threshold and low absorbance.

The noise is one of the serious problems concerning helicopters operations. The issue of helicopter external noise generated mainly from a helicopter rotor has always affected the use of rotorcrafts, especially in the urban environment. the noise sources depend on the night configurations. In particular, a noise generated by the interaction between blades and tip vortices mainly occurs during descent night. This noise is called blade-vortex interaction (BVI) noise, and this BVI noise is particularly penalizing for helicopters. In this paper, a numerical study to capture the BVI noise is carried out. The numerical study is performed in two phases. In the first phase, a 2D simulation based on parallel BVI event of Kitapliglu et al experiment is performed.
