Abstract:
\n\n
In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in propeller systems because of their lower environmental impact (higher efficiency), as well as the advent of electrically powered vehicles. This new interest has generated a plethora of new configurations and spurred a development in sophisticated methods of analysis, design, and optimisation.
\nThe seminar is divided in two parts: Single-rotation propellers and rotors, of which we present the basic aerodynamic models (vortex methods, rotor-on-rotor interference, wake models), alongside new configurations such as unequal blade spacing, folding propellers and tiltrotors. In the second part, we discuss contra-rotating propellers, basic aerodynamic and aero acoustic models, and present parametric cases and novel designs, including locked-rotors, and propellers with vanes.
\n
\n
Danish pastry, coffee and tea will be served 15 minutes before the seminar starts.

All interested persons are invited
