Download or read book Determination of Handling Qualities and Display Requirements for Helicopter Instrument Flight During Decelerating Approaches to Slow Speeds written by S. Kereliuk and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses the most recent phase of a series of experiments performed jointly by the National Aeronautical Establishment and the United States Federal Aviation Administration. The experiment was aimed at determining the helicopter instrument flight handling qualities requirements when performing steep approaches to low decision heights to a landing area colocated with a Microwave Landing System. A total of 118 approaches were evaluated by three helicopter certification test pilots and one operational/training helicopter pilot. Results indicate that with simple rate damping augmentation in pitch, roll and yaw, and flight director guidance, a Bell 205A-1 exhibited borderline Level 1 (certifiable) handling qualities when performing decelerating approaches to 20 knots to decision heights representative of Category IIIA weather limits. Keywords: Helicopter handling; Instrument flight; (Canada).

Kereliuk and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This investigation was carried out to highlight deficiencies of helicopters handling qualities when performing low speed instrument approaches. Steep decelerating MLS (Microwave Landing System) approaches to a decision height of 50 feet, simultaneously decelerating to 20 knots, were perfromed in an airborne simulator--a variable-stability Bell 205A helicopter. Tracking performance, interms of height, azimuth and speed errors was of an acceptable standard, but pilot workload was extremely high, especially during the overshoot phase. Benefits of different levels of control system augmentation were not readily apparent in this high workload environment. In view of the results of this investigation, a follow-on program is proposed where further attempts will be made to determine the effects of display and control sophistication on pilot workload during slow-speed helicopter instrument procedures.

Book excerpt: Instrument-flying trials have been conducted in a single-rotor helicopter to determine the adequacy of existing longitudinal flying-qualities requirements under instrument conditions. In addition, laterial directional characteristics were examined. The suitability, for helicopter use, of standard airplane insruments was also investigated.

This book was released on 1988 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation was carried out to study the drag reduction capabilities of riblets (commercially available) when installed on a supercritical airfoil which was aerodynamically tested in the NAE's High Reynolds Number 2 D Test Facility. The flow conditions in this test ranged from M= 0.15 to M= 0.76, and Re/ft = 1.5 million to Re/ft =8 million. The airfoil with riblets exhibited less drag than a completely turbulent air foil (without riblets) for Mach Number M

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book The behaviour of helicopters and tiltrotor aircraft is so complex that understanding the physical mechanisms at work in trim, stability and response, and thus the prediction of Flying Qualities, requires a framework of analytical and numerical modelling and simulation. Good Flying Qualities are vital for ensuring that mission performance is achievable with safety and, in the first and second editions of Helicopter Flight Dynamics, a comprehensive treatment of design criteria was presented, relating to both normal and degraded Flying Qualities. Fully embracing the consequences of Degraded Flying Qualities during the design phase will contribute positively to safety. In this third edition, two new Chapters are included. Chapter 9 takes the reader on a journey from the origins of the story of Flying Qualities, tracing key contributions to the developing maturity and to the current position. Chapter 10 provides a comprehensive treatment of the Flight Dynamics of tiltrotor aircraft; informed by research activities and the limited data on operational aircraft. Many of the unique behavioural characteristics of tiltrotors are revealed for the first time in this book. The accurate prediction and assessment of Flying Qualities draws on the modelling and simulation discipline on the one hand and testing practice on the other. Checking predictions in flight requires clearly defined mission tasks, derived from realistic performance requirements. High fidelity simulations also form the basis for the design of stability and control augmentation systems, essential for conferring Level 1 Flying Qualities. The integrated description of flight dynamic modelling, simulation and flying qualities of rotorcraft forms the subject of this book, which will be of interest to engineers practising and honing their skills in research laboratories, academia and manufacturing industries, test pilots and flight test engineers, and as a reference for graduate and postgraduate students in aerospace engineering.
