Seminar Initial Pages

This seminar report discusses the helicopter rotor system and its design. It provides an overview of different rotor system classifications including rigid, semi-rigid, and fully articulated systems. It also describes the purpose of the tail rotor in overcoming torque. The report outlines various rotor components like blades, rotor head, and swash plate. It then examines rotor aerodynamics and factors involved in blade design such as airfoil lift and drag, twist and taper, and noise reduction.

ABSTRACT

A helico/ter rotor is /o8ered #y the en0ine& thro"0h the transmission& to the rotatin0 mast Main rotor systems are classified accordin0 to ho8 the main rotor #lades are attached and mo*e relati*e to the main rotor h"#2 There are three #asic classifications' ri0id& semi ri0id& or f"lly artic"lated& altho"0h some modern rotor systems "se an en0ineered com#ination of these classifications2
