In the following paper we perform an unsteady CFD analysis of the effect of several two dimensional blade geometrical parameters in the performance of CROP. The values will be analysed in terms of power loading (Thrust/Power) vs Disk Load (Thrust/Disk Area). The geometric parameters that we investigate include: blade thickness; rotor solidity (number of blades); and pitching amplitude.

Abstract

In the following paper we perform an unsteady CFD analysis of the effect of several two dimensional blade geometrical parameters in the performance of CROP. The values will be analysed in terms of power loading (Thrust/Power) vs Disk Load (Thrust/Disk Area). The geometric parameters that we investigate include: blade thickness; rotor solidity (number of blades); and pitching amplitude.
