AIRCRAFT ROTOR BLADE OF SHAPE ADAPTED FOR ACOUSTIC IMPROVEMENT DURING AN APPROACH FLIGHT AND FOR IMPROVING PERFORMANCE IN FORWARD FLIGHT

A blade of a rotor for a rotary wing aircraft. The blade presents relationships for variation in the sweep and in the chord of the profiles of sections of the blade, in particular in order to improve the twisting stiffness and the bending stiffness of the blade. The blade is then double-tapered and...

Zusammenfassung:A blade of a rotor for a rotary wing aircraft. The blade presents relationships for variation in the sweep and in the chord of the profiles of sections of the blade, in particular in order to improve the twisting stiffness and the bending stiffness of the blade. The blade is then double-tapered and it presents three sweeps, making it possible firstly to improve the aerodynamic performance of the blade in forward flight, and secondly to reduce the noise given off by the blade, in particular during an approach flight.
