Tail Rotor Aerodynamics: Can live with them......Can't live without them.
The tail rotor requires a flapping hinge to compensate for dissymmetry of lift. By turning it 45 degrees, the flapping hinge name changes to the delta hinge. Watch the video to see how the delta hinge will benefit the tail rotor function.

Operation and inspection of turbine engine combustors. A combustor is a component or area of a gas turbine, ramjet, or scramjet engine where combustion takes place. It is also known as a burner, combustion chamber or flame holder. In a gas turbine engine, the combustor or combustion chamber is fed high pressure air by the compression system.

    Great real-world shot of a complex theory. However how does an engine spinning at 5000rpm engage a rotor that's at standstill and start it spinning up without shredding something?

    • @MrSkidkicker
      @MrSkidkicker Před měsícem

      Great question. The turbine wheel that drives the compressor can turn independently of the turbine that drives the rotor. If you watch some startup videos, the engine will start and reach idle speeds , eventually the rotor catches up.

    • @daniell1869
      @daniell1869 Před měsícem

      @@MrSkidkickeryes and I’ve even seen some helos that can have their rotors completely stopped while the turbine is at full idle. Then they release the rotor brake and the rotors slowly start spinning. What I don’t understand is how this can be. How does the turbine exert its effort onto the rotor so gently and slowly. Is it it the exhaust air blowing through the compressor that powers it? Or it is some fancy gear? I don’t understand how it’s able to exert enough force for the rotors to lift a helicopter off the ground, while also allowing that same rotor to come to a full stop. Feels like magic

  • @garyyoung4074
    @garyyoung4074 Před 4 měsíci

    Just found this video. So....why do all modern gyrocopters use only a 2 blade, large diameter flappy rotor? I would think a smaller diameter 3 blade rotor would be less drag, less stick shake, and less retreating blade factor. I think autogyros are great except for how slow they are. If you really want to GO SOMEWHERE, rather than just fly around at 70kts, you need a machine that can cruise at....maybe 120kts. Why so slow. Do you know?

    • @brianb-p6586
      @brianb-p6586 Před 4 měsíci

      Gyrocopters are as cheap as possible, so they usually have simple two-blade teetering rotors; some even tilt the rotor rather than using cyclic pitch control.

  • @ArneChristianRosenfeldt
    @ArneChristianRosenfeldt Před 4 měsíci

    I like that balanced head. So even number of blades it is. No droop. As RPM increases, allow for more flapping. What if you actually want to roll or pitch the helicopter? Maybe we need a second swashplate to govern the flapping. Maybe gyro forces absolutely dominate and the fuselage only needs a small torque.. or it just dangles like cargo on a rope.

    question, the AStar spin at approx 390 you said, others spin/operate at more like 245, thats a significant different, for a rotor system, be interesting to hear, understand how a rotor system is designed to gravitate to the one or other end of that rpm range.. can't recall which heli the other was other than it's also a 3 blade design,

    • @brianb-p6586
      @brianb-p6586 Před 4 měsíci

      What helicopter of the same size (and rotor diameter) turns the main rotor at only 245 RPM? Rotor rotational speed is determined by rotor diameter and desired tip speed (typically roughly Mach 0.8).

    surprising that it grips a smooth shaft, that it doesn't have the same number of indents. it should also be possible to design it such that when reversing that it lifts the contacts completely so there is no wear when freewheeling.
