Abstract:This study investigates the effects of rotor–rotor interaction on the wake and thrust characteristics of a small tandem rotor operating in a crosswind. Flow velocity and force measurements were conducted in a wind tunnel with two rotors arranged parallel to a crosswind. The results show that the rotor–rotor interaction significantly influences the wake characteristics and thrust generations of the tandem rotor and its effects vary depending on the crosswind speed and distance between rotor tips. In the tandem … Show more
