Abstract

This paper reviews on application of quasi continuous vortex lattice method for determining the performance of helicopter tail rotor propeller. Tail rotor blade for Bell B206 of one seat helicopter is used. The method is developed to be suitable for analyzing the performance of propeller in term of thrust, torque, and efficiency. These parameters are calculated based on pressure on blade.
