NEWTON’SLAWSOFMOTION 牛頓運動定律
1-2.Newton’sthreelawsofmotionareinertia,acceleration,andaction/reaction.Theselawsapplytoflightof any aircraft. A working knowledge of the laws and their applications assists in understanding aerodynamic principles discussed in this chapter. Interaction between the laws of motion and aircraft mechanical actions causes the aircraft to fly and allows aviators to control such flight. 1-2. 牛頓的三大運動定律是慣性、加速度和作用/反作用。這些定律適用於任何飛行器的飛行。對這些定律及其應用的基本了解有助於理解本章討論的空氣動力學原則。運動定律與飛行器機械動作之間的相互作用使飛行器能夠飛行,並使飛行員能夠控制這種飛行。
FirstLaw:Inertia 第一定律:慣性
1-3.A body at rest will remain at rest, and a body in motion will remain in motion at the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force. Nothing starts or stops without an outside force to bring about or prevent motion. Inertia is a body’s resistance to a change in its state of motion. For a constant mass, force (F) equals mass (M) times acceleration (A), expressed in the formula (F=MA). Mass is then the property of matter that manifests itself as inertia. 1-3. 靜止的物體將保持靜止,運動的物體將以相同的速度和方向繼續運動,除非受到外力的作用。沒有外力的介入,沒有任何事物會開始或停止運動。慣性是物體對其運動狀態變化的抵抗。對於恆定質量,力(F)等於質量(M)乘以加速度(A),用公式(F=MA)表示。質量因此是物質的特性,表現為慣性。
SecondLaw:Acceleration 第二定律:加速度
1-4.The force required to produce a change in motion of a body is directly proportional to its mass and rate ofchange initsvelocity. Accelerationisa change in velocitywithrespectto time. Itisdirectlyproportionalto forceandinverselyproportionalto mass.Thistakesintoaccountthe factorsinvolvedinovercomingNewton’s FirstLaw.Itcoversbothchangesindirectionandspeed,includingstartingup fromrest(positive acceleration) and coming to a stop (negative acceleration or deceleration) expressed in the equation A=F/M. 1-4. 產生物體運動變化所需的力與其質量及速度變化率成正比。加速度是相對於時間的速度變化。它與力成正比,與質量成反比。這考慮了克服牛頓第一定律所涉及的因素。它涵蓋了方向和速度的變化,包括從靜止狀態啟動(正加速度)和停止(負加速度或減速),可用方程式 A=F/M 表示。
ThirdLaw:Action/Reaction 第三定律:作用/反作用
1-5.Foreveryaction,thereisanequalandoppositereaction.Whenaninteractionoccursbetweentwobodies, equal forces in opposite directions are imparted to each body. In a helicopter, the rotor blades move air downward; consequently, the air pushes the rotor blades (and thus the helicopter) in the opposite direction (figure 1-1, page 1-2). 1-5. 每一個行動都有一個相等且相反的反應。當兩個物體之間發生互動時,會對每個物體施加相等的力量,方向相反。在直升機中,旋翼葉片向下移動空氣;因此,空氣將旋翼葉片(以及直升機)推向相反的方向(圖 1-1,頁 1-2)。
1-6.Bernoulli’s principle describes the relationship between internal fluid pressure and fluid velocity. It is a statementofthelawofconservationofenergyandhelpsexplainwhyanairfoildevelopsanaerodynamicforce. The concept of conservation of energy states energy cannot be created or destroyed and the amount of energy enteringasystemmustalsoexit.Asimpletubewithaconstrictedportionnearthecenterofitslengthillustrates this principle. An example is using water through a garden hose (figure 1-2). The mass of flow per unit area (cross sectional area of tube) is the mass flow rate. In figure 1-2, the flow into the tube is constant, neither accelerating nor decelerating; thus, the mass flowrate through the tube must be the same at stations 1, 2, or 3. If the cross sectional area at any one of these stations—or any given point—in the tube is reduced, the fluid velocitymustincreasetomaintainaconstantmassflowratetomovethesameamountoffluidthroughasmaller area.Fluidspeedsupindirectproportiontothereductioninarea.Venturieffectisthetermusedtodescribethis phenomenon. Figure 1-3, page 1-3, illustrates what happens to mass flow rate in the constricted tube as the dimensions of the tube change. 1-6. 伯努利原理描述了內部流體壓力與流體速度之間的關係。這是能量守恆定律的陳述,並有助於解釋為什麼翼型會產生空氣動力學力。能量守恆的概念指出,能量不能被創造或摧毀,進入系統的能量量必須也要離開。靠近其長度中心的收縮部分的簡單管道說明了這一原理。一個例子是通過花園水管的水(圖 1-2)。每單位面積(管道的橫截面積)的流量質量稱為質量流量率。在圖 1-2 中,流入管道的流量是恆定的,既不加速也不減速;因此,通過管道的質量流量率在站點 1、2 或 3 必須相同。如果在這些站點中的任何一個——或管道中的任何給定點——的橫截面積減小,流體速度必須增加,以保持恆定的質量流量率,將相同量的流體通過較小的面積。流體的速度與面積的減少成正比。文丘里效應是用來描述這一現象的術語。 圖 1-3,頁 1-3,說明了當管道的尺寸改變時,收縮管中的質量流量率會發生什麼變化。

1-7.While the amount of total energy within a closed system (the tube) does not change, the form of the energymaybe altered. Pressure offlowingair maybe compared toenergyinthatthe total pressure offlowing air always remains constant, unless energy is added or removed. Fluid flow pressure has two components— static and dynamic pressure. Static pressure is the pressure component measured in the flow but not moving withtheflowaspressureismeasured.Staticpressureisalsoknownastheforceperunitareaactingonasurface. Dynamic pressure of flowis that component existing as a result of movement of the air. The sum of these two pressuresistotalpressure.Asairflowsthroughtheconstriction,staticpressuredecreasesasvelocityincreases. This increases dynamic pressure. Figure 1-4 depicts the bottom half of the constricted area of the tube, which resemblesthetophalfofanairfoil.Evenwiththetophalfofthetuberemoved,theairstillacceleratesoverthe curved area because the upper air layers restrict the flow—just as the top half of the constricted tube did. This accelerationcausesdecreasedstaticpressureabovethecurvedportionandcreatesapressuredifferentialcaused by the variation of static and dynamic pressures. 1-7. 雖然封閉系統(管道)內的總能量不變,但能量的形式可能會改變。流動空氣的壓力可以與能量相比,因為流動空氣的總壓力始終保持不變,除非能量被添加或移除。流體流動壓力有兩個組成部分——靜壓和動壓。靜壓是指在流動中測量的壓力組件,但不隨流動而移動,作為壓力的測量。靜壓也被稱為作用在表面上的單位面積力。流動的動壓是由空氣運動所產生的組件。這兩種壓力的總和是總壓力。當空氣通過收縮處時,靜壓隨著速度的增加而減少。這增加了動壓。圖 1-4 描繪了管道收縮區域的下半部分,類似於翼型的上半部分。即使去掉了管道的上半部分,空氣仍然在曲面上加速,因為上層空氣限制了流動——就像收縮管道的上半部分一樣。 這種加速導致曲面上方的靜壓降低,並因靜壓和動壓的變化產生壓力差。

AirflowandtheAirfoil 氣流與翼型
1-8.Airflow around an airfoil performs similar to airflow through a constriction. As velocity of the airflow increases, static pressure decreases above and belowthe airfoil. The air usuallyhas to travel a greater distance over the upper surface; thus, there is a greater velocity increase and static pressure decrease over the upper surface than the lower surface. The static pressure differential on the upper and lower surfaces produces about 75percentoftheaerodynamicforce,calledlift.Theremaining25percentoftheforceisproducedasaresultof action/reaction from the downward deflection of air as it leaves the trailing edge of the airfoil and by the downward deflection of air impacting the exposed lower surface of the airfoil. 1-8. 空氣流經翼型的方式類似於空氣流經收縮處。隨著氣流速度的增加,翼型上方和下方的靜壓力減少。空氣通常需要在上表面上行駛更長的距離;因此,上表面的速度增加和靜壓力減少比下表面更大。上表面和下表面之間的靜壓差產生約 75%的空氣動力學力,稱為升力。剩餘的 25%力是由於空氣在離開翼型的尾緣時向下偏轉的作用/反作用以及空氣向下偏轉撞擊翼型暴露的下表面所產生的。
VECTORSANDSCALARS 向量與標量
1-9.Vectors and scalars are useful tools for the illustration of aerodynamic forces at work. Vectors are quantities witha magnitudeanddirection.Scalarsarequantitiesdescribedbysizealone,suchasarea, volume, time, and mass. 1-9. 向量和標量是用於說明空氣動力學力作用的有用工具。向量是具有大小和方向的量。標量是僅由大小描述的量,例如面積、體積、時間和質量。
VectorQuantities 向量量值

The arrow indicates the direction in which the force is acting. The length of the line (compared to a scale) represents the magnitude of the force. 1-10. 速度、加速度、重量、升力和阻力是向量量的例子。向量量的方向與大小或幅度同樣重要。當兩個或更多的力作用於一個物體時,綜合效果可以通過使用向量來表示。向量是通過在特定角度畫一條線並在末端加上箭頭來表示的。箭頭指示力作用的方向。線的長度(與比例相比)代表力的大小。
VectorSolutions 向量解決方案
1-11.Individualforcevectorsareusefulinanalyzingconditionsofflight.Thechiefconcerniswithcombined, or resultant, effects of forces acting on an airfoil or aircraft. The following three methods of solving for the resultant are most commonly used: parallelogram, polygon, and triangulation. 1-11. 個別的力向量在分析飛行條件時非常有用。主要關注的是作用於翼型或飛機上的力的合成或結果效應。以下三種求解結果的常用方法為:平行四邊形法、多邊形法和三角測量法。
ParallelogramMethod 平行四邊形法

Using two vectors, lines are drawn paralleltothevectorsdeterminingtheresultant.Iftwotugboatspushabargewithequalforce,thebargemoves forward in a direction that is the mean of the direction of both tugboats (figure 1-5). 1-12. 這是氣動力學中最常用的向量解決方案。使用兩個向量,繪製與確定合成向量平行的線。如果兩艘拖船以相等的力量推動一艘駁船,則駁船將朝著兩艘拖船方向的平均方向前進(圖 1-5)。
1-13. When more than two forces are acting in different directions, the resultant may be found by using a polygonvectorsolution.Figure1-6,page1-5,showsanexampleinwhichoneforceisactingat90degreeswith aforceof180pounds(vectorA),asecondforceactingat45degreeswithaforceof90pounds(vectorB),and a third force acting at 315 degrees with a force of120 pounds (vector C).To determine the resultant, drawthe firstvectorbeginningatpoint0(theorigin)withremainingvectorsdrawnconsecutively.Theresultantisdrawn from point of origin (0) to the end of the final vector (C). 1-13. 當超過兩個力以不同方向作用時,可以使用多邊形向量解法來找到合力。圖 1-6,頁 1-5,顯示了一個例子,其中一個力以 90 度作用,大小為 180 磅(向量 A),第二個力以 45 度作用,大小為 90 磅(向量 B),第三個力以 315 度作用,大小為 120 磅(向量 C)。要確定合力,從點 0(原點)開始繪製第一個向量,然後依次繪製其餘向量。合力從原點(0)繪製到最後一個向量(C)的末端。
1-14.This is a simplified formof a polygon vector solution using onlytwo vectors and connecting them with a resultant vector line. Figure 1-7 shows an example of this solution. By drawing a vector for each of these known velocities and drawing a connecting line between the ends, a resultant velocity and direction can be determined. 1-14. 這是一種簡化的多邊形向量解法,只使用兩個向量並用一條合成向量線將它們連接起來。圖 1-7 顯示了這個解法的一個例子。通過為每個已知速度繪製一個向量,並在末端之間繪製一條連接線,可以確定合成速度和方向。

Different airfoil designs and airfoil terminology are explained in this section to better understand the mechanics of flight. 1-16. 對翼型設計及其各種結果有堅實的理解是理解空氣動力學的必要條件。本節將解釋不同的翼型設計和翼型術語,以便更好地理解飛行的機械原理。
AIRFOILCHARACTERISTICS 翼型特性

Anairfoil is any surface suchas wing, propeller, rudder, or evena trim tab, whichprovides aerodynamic force when it interacts with a moving stream of air. (FAA-H-8083-25B) Airfoils are most often associated with production of lift. Airfoils are also used for stability (fin), control (elevator), and thrust or propulsion(propellerorrotor).Certainairfoils,suchasrotorblades,combine someofthesefunctions. Airfoils are carefully structured to accommodate a specific set of flight characteristics. 1-17. 直升機和傳統飛機能夠飛行是因為當空氣流過翼型時產生的空氣動力學力。翼型是任何表面,例如機翼、螺旋槳、舵或甚至修整片,當它與移動的空氣流互動時提供空氣動力學力。(FAA-H-8083-25B)翼型最常與升力的產生相關聯。翼型也用於穩定性(鰭)、控制(升降舵)和推進或推力(螺旋槳或轉子)。某些翼型,例如轉子葉片,結合了這些功能中的一些。翼型被精心設計以適應特定的飛行特性。
AirfoilTerminology 翼型術語
1-18. Table 1-1, page 1-7, provides airfoil terms and their definitions common to all aircraft. The first four terms describe the shape of an airfoil. The remaining terms describe development of aerodynamic properties. 1-18. 表 1-1,第 1-7 頁,提供了所有飛機通用的翼型術語及其定義。前四個術語描述了翼型的形狀。其餘術語描述了氣動性能的發展。

A line drawn halfwaybetween the upper and lower surfaces. The chord line connects the ends of the mean camber line. Camber refers to curvature of the airfoil and may be considered curvature of the mean camber line. The shape of the mean camber is important for determiningaerodynamiccharacteristicsofanairfoilsection.Maximum camber(displacementofthemeancamberlinefrom thechordline)and its location help to define the shape of the mean camber line. The location of maximum camber and its displacement from the chord line areexpressedasfractionsorpercentagesofthebasicchordlength.By varying the point of maximum camber, the manufacturer can tailor an 一條畫在上表面和下表面之間的中間線。弦線連接平均弯曲線的兩端。弯曲指的是翼型的曲率,可以視為平均弯曲線的曲率。平均弯曲的形狀對於確定翼型截面的氣動特性非常重要。最大弯曲(平均弯曲線相對於弦線的位移)及其位置有助於定義平均弯曲線的形狀。最大弯曲的位置及其相對於弦線的位移以基本弦長的分數或百分比表示。通過改變最大弯曲的點,製造商可以量身定制一個。

The nonsymmetrical airfoil design produces useful lift even at negative angles of attack. A nonsymmetrical design has advantages and disadvantages. The advantages are more lift production at a given AOA than a symmetrical design, an improved lift to drag ratio, and better stall characteristics. The disadvantages are the center-of-pressuretravelcanmoveupto20percentofthechordline(creatingundesirable torqueontheairfoil structure) and greater production costs. 1-21. 非對稱翼型(圖 1-11)具有不同的上表面和下表面設計,上方翼型的曲率大於下方。平均弦線和弦線並不重合。非對稱翼型設計即使在負攻角下也能產生有用的升力。非對稱設計有其優點和缺點。優點是在給定攻角下比對稱設計產生更多的升力、改善升阻比以及更好的失速特性。缺點是壓力中心的移動可能達到弦線的 20%(對翼型結構產生不利的扭矩)以及更高的生產成本。
1-22.Because of lift differential along the blade, it should be designed with a twist to alleviate internal blade stress and distribute the lifting force more evenly along the blade. Blade twist provides higher pitch angles at theroot wherevelocityislowandlowerpitchanglesnearer thetip wherevelocityis higher.Thisincreasesthe induced air velocity and blade loading near the inboard section of the blade. 1-22. 由於葉片上的升力差異,應設計成具有扭轉,以減輕內部葉片應力並更均勻地分配沿葉片的升力。葉片扭轉在根部提供較高的俯仰角,因為那裡的速度較低,而在接近葉尖的地方則提供較低的俯仰角,因為那裡的速度較高。這增加了靠近葉片內側部分的誘導氣流速度和葉片負載。

(FAA-H-8083-25B) The relative wind for an airplane in forward flight flows in a direction parallel with and opposite to the direction of flight; therefore, the actual flight path of the airplane determines the direction of the relative wind. 1-24. 了解相對風(圖 1-12,第 1-9 頁)對於理解空氣動力學及其在飛行員實際飛行中的應用至關重要。相對風是指由物體在空氣中移動所產生的氣流方向。(FAA-H-8083-25B)對於前進飛行的飛機,相對風的方向與飛行方向平行且相反;因此,飛機的實際飛行路徑決定了相對風的方向。

Rotational relative wind velocityis highest at blade tips, decreasing uniformly to zero at axis of rotation (center of the mast). 1-25. 旋翼葉片圍繞主軸旋轉時產生的旋轉相對風(圖 1-13)。旋轉一詞指的是產生相對風的方法。旋轉相對風流向與氣動翼的實際飛行路徑相反,以 90 度的角度撞擊葉片的前緣,並與旋轉平面平行,並在旋轉過程中不斷改變方向。旋轉相對風速在葉片尖端最高,均勻減少至主軸的旋轉軸(主軸中心)為零。

InducedFlow(Downwash) 誘導流(下洗流)
1-26.Atflatpitch,airleavesthetrailingedgeoftherotorbladeinthesamedirectionitmovedacrosstheleading edge; no lift or induced flow is being produced. As blade pitch angle is increased, the rotor system induces a downward flow of air through the rotor blades creating a downward component of air that is added to the rotational relative wind. Because the blades are moving horizontally, some of the air is displaced downward. The blades travel along the same path and pass a given point in rapid succession. Rotor blade action changes the still air to a column of descending air. This downward flow of air is called induced flow (downwash). Induced flowis the component ofair flowing verticallythroughthe rotor systemresulting fromthe production oflift.(FAA-H-8083-21B)Itismostpronouncedatahoverunderno-windconditions(figure1-14,page1-10). 1-26. 在平坦的桨距下,空氣沿著轉子葉片的後緣以與其穿過前緣相同的方向離開;不會產生升力或誘導流動。隨著葉片桨距角的增加,轉子系統會通過轉子葉片誘導出向下的空氣流動,形成一個向下的空氣分量,這個分量會與旋轉的相對風結合。由於葉片是水平移動的,部分空氣會向下位移。葉片沿著相同的路徑移動,並迅速通過某一特定點。轉子葉片的作用將靜止的空氣轉變為一個下降的空氣柱。這種向下的空氣流動稱為誘導流(下洗流)。誘導流是通過轉子系統垂直流動的空氣分量,這是由於升力的產生所致。(FAA-H-8083-21B)在無風條件下的懸停時最為明顯(圖 1-14,第 1-10 頁)。

ResultantRelativeWind 結果相對風

(FAA-H-8083-21B)Thiswindisinclineddownwardatsomeangleandoppositetheeffectiveflightpathofthe airfoil, rather than the physical flight path (rotational relative wind). The resultant relative wind also serves as thereferenceplanefordevelopmentoflift,drag,andtotalaerodynamicforce(TAF)vectorsontheairfoil.When the helicopter has horizontal motion, airspeed further modifies the resultant relative wind. The airspeed component of relative wind results from the helicopter moving through the air. This airspeed component is added to, or subtracted from, the rotational relative wind, depending on whether the blade is advancing or retreatinginrelationtohelicoptermovement.Introductionofairspeedrelativewindalsomodifiesinducedflow. Generally, the downward velocity of induced flow is reduced. The pattern of air circulation through the disk changes when the aircraft has horizontal motion. As the helicopter gains airspeed, the addition of forward velocity results in decreased induced flow velocity. This change results in an improved efficiency (additional lift) being produced from a given blade pitch setting. Section V further covers this process. 1-27. 懸停時的結果相對風(圖 1-15)是由旋轉產生的氣流,並受到誘導流的影響。這股風以某個角度向下傾斜,與氣動翼的有效飛行路徑相反,而不是物理飛行路徑(旋轉相對風)。結果相對風也作為氣動翼上升力、阻力和總空氣動力學力(TAF)向量發展的參考平面。當直升機有水平運動時,空速進一步改變結果相對風。相對風的空速分量是由直升機在空氣中移動所產生的。這個空速分量根據葉片是前進還是後退相對於直升機運動,會加到或減去旋轉相對風。空速相對風的引入也改變了誘導流。一般來說,誘導流的向下速度會減少。當飛機有水平運動時,通過圓盤的氣流循環模式會改變。隨著直升機獲得空速,前進速度的增加導致誘導流速度減少。 此變更導致在給定的葉片角度設定下產生更高的效率(額外的升力)。第五節進一步涵蓋此過程。

UpFlow(Inflow) 上流(流入)
1-28. Up flow (inflow) is airflow approaching the rotor disk from below as the result of some rate of descent. Up flow also occurs as a result of blades flapping down or an updraft, which alter the AOA. 1-28. 向上氣流(進氣流)是指由於某種下降速率而從下方接近轉子盤的氣流。向上氣流也會因為葉片向下拍打或上升氣流而發生,這會改變攻角(AOA)。
ROTORBLADEANGLES 旋翼葉片角度
1-29.Mechanical and aerodynamic angles of airfoils have various effects on engine power demands and aerodynamic properties. Angle of incidence is one angle that is easier to control being that it is a mechanical angle. Angle of attack is harder to control because of its relationship with the atmosphere. Correlating the relationship between these two angles expands the understanding of power management and permission planning. 1-29. 機械和氣動角度對翼型的引擎功率需求和氣動特性有各種影響。入射角是一個較易控制的角度,因為它是機械角度。攻角則較難控制,因為它與大氣的關係。關聯這兩個角度之間的關係擴展了對功率管理和許可規劃的理解。
AngleofIncidence 入射角
1-30. Angle of incidence is the angle between the chord line of a main or tail rotor blade and the rotational relative wind of the rotor system(tip-path plane) (figure 1-16, page 1-11). It is a mechanical angle rather than anaerodynamic angle and is sometimes referred to as blade pitchangle. Inthe absence of induced flow, AOA and angle of incidence are the same. Whenever induced flow, up flow (inflow), or airspeed modifies relative wind, then AOA is different from angle of incidence. Collective input and cyclic feathering change angle of incidence.AchangeinangleofincidencechangesAOA,whichchangesthecoefficientoflift,therebychanging the lift produced by the airfoil. 1-30. 入射角是主旋翼或尾旋翼葉片的弦線與旋翼系統的旋轉相對風(尖端路徑平面)之間的角度(圖 1-16,第 1-11 頁)。這是一個機械角度,而不是一個空氣動力學角度,有時被稱為葉片俯仰角。在沒有誘導流的情況下,攻角和入射角是相同的。每當誘導流、上升流(進流)或空速改變相對風時,攻角就會與入射角不同。集體輸入和循環羽化會改變入射角。入射角的變化會改變攻角,進而改變升力係數,從而改變翼型產生的升力。
AngleofAttack 攻角
1-31. AOA is the angle between the airfoil’s chord line and relative wind. (FAA-H-8083-21B) The relative wind associated with AOA is the resultant relative wind. AOA is an aerodynamic angle (figure 1-6). It can changewithnochangeinangleofincidence.SeveralfactorsmaychangetherotorbladeAOA.Aviatorscontrol some of those factors; others occur automatically due to rotor system design.

Aviatorshavelittlecontroloverbladeflappingandflexing,gustywind,orturbulentairconditions.AOAisone of the primary factors determining amount of lift and drag produced by an airfoil. 1-31. AOA 是翼型弦線與相對風之間的角度。(FAA-H-8083-21B) 與 AOA 相關的相對風是合成相對風。AOA 是一個空氣動力學角度(圖 1-6)。它可以在不改變入射角的情況下改變。幾個因素可能會改變旋翼葉片的 AOA。飛行員控制其中一些因素;其他因素則因旋翼系統設計而自動發生。飛行員通過正常的控制操作來調整 AOA;然而,即使沒有飛行員的輸入,AOA 也會隨著旋翼葉片在旋翼盤弧內的運動而改變。這一持續的變化過程適應了旋翼飛行。飛行員對葉片的拍打和彎曲、陣風或湍流空氣條件的控制有限。AOA 是決定翼型產生的升力和阻力的主要因素之一。
1-32.AsAOAisincreased,thereisagreateraccelerationofairatoptheairfoil.Thisresultsinalargerpressure differentialbetweenthetopandbottomoftheairfoil,producingalargeraerodynamicforce.IfAOAisincreased beyondacriticalangle,flowacrossthetopoftheairfoilwillbedisrupted,boundarylayerseparationwilloccur, and a stall results. When this occurs, lift rapidlydecreases, drag rapidlyincreases, and the airfoil ceases to fly. 1-32. 隨著攻角(AOA)的增加,翼型上方的氣流加速會更大。這導致翼型上下之間的壓力差增大,產生更大的空氣動力學力。如果攻角超過臨界角,翼型上方的氣流將會受到干擾,邊界層分離將發生,並導致失速。當這種情況發生時,升力迅速減少,阻力迅速增加,翼型將停止飛行。
ROTORBLADEACTIONS 轉子葉片動作
1-33. Different types of rotor systems react in different ways while rotating around the central axis. Rotor system design andtheirspecificdesign attributesaidin theunderstanding of aircraftlimitsandcapabilities. 1-33. 不同類型的轉子系統在圍繞中央軸旋轉時會以不同的方式反應。轉子系統的設計及其特定設計屬性有助於理解飛機的限制和能力。
Understanding the individual rotor blade actions of a specific rotor system in flight strengthens the overall understanding of how that system works as a whole. 了解特定旋翼系統在飛行中的個別旋翼葉片行為,有助於加強對該系統整體運作方式的理解。
Rotation 旋轉
1-34.Rotationofrotor blades is the most basic movement ofthe rotor systemand produces rotational relative wind. During hovering, rotation of the rotor system produces airflow over the rotor blades. Figure 1-17, page 1-12, illustrates a typical rotor system with an arbitrary rotor diameter of 40 feet and rotor speed of 320 revolutions per minute (RPM) used to demonstrate rotational velocities. In this example, blade tip velocity is 670 feet per second, or 397 knots. At the blade root—nearer the rotor shaft or blade attachment point—blade speedis muchlessasthedistancetraveledatthesmallerradiusis muchless.Halfwaybetweentherootandtip (point A in figure 1-17) blade speed is 198.5 knots, or one-half tip speed. Blade speed varies according to the distance or radius from the center of the main rotor shaft. While the airspeed differential between root and tip isextreme,theliftdifferentialismoreextremebecauseliftvariesasthesquareofthevelocity(seeliftequation on page 1-26). As velocity doubles, lift increases four times. The lift at point A in figure 1-17 would be only one-fourth as much as lift at the blade tip—assuming the airfoil shape and AOA are the same at both points. 1-34. 轉子葉片的旋轉是轉子系統最基本的運動,並產生旋轉相對風。在懸停時,轉子系統的旋轉會在轉子葉片上產生氣流。圖 1-17(第 1-12 頁)顯示了一個典型的轉子系統,具有 40 英尺的任意轉子直徑和 320 轉每分鐘(RPM)的轉子速度,用於演示旋轉速度。在這個例子中,葉片尖端速度為 670 英尺每秒,或 397 節。在葉片根部——靠近轉子軸或葉片連接點——葉片速度要小得多,因為在較小半徑上行進的距離要小得多。在根部和尖端之間的中點(圖 1-17 中的 A 點)葉片速度為 198.5 節,或為尖端速度的一半。葉片速度根據距離或從主轉子軸中心的半徑而變化。雖然根部和尖端之間的空氣速度差異極大,但升力差異更為極端,因為升力隨速度的平方變化(見第 1-26 頁的升力方程)。當速度加倍時,升力增加四倍。 在圖 1-17 中,A 點的升力僅為葉片尖端升力的四分之一——假設兩點的翼型形狀和攻角相同。
1-35.Feathering is the action that changes the pitch angle of the rotor blades by rotating them around theirfeathering (spanwise) axis. (FAA-H-8083-21B) (figure 1-18). 1-35. 羽化是通過圍繞其羽化(跨幅)軸旋轉旋翼葉片來改變其俯仰角的動作。(FAA-H-8083-21B) (圖 1-18)。
Figure1-18.Feathering 圖 1-18. 羽化
CollectiveFeathering 集體羽化
1-36. Collective feathering changes angle of incidence equally and in the same direction on all rotor blades simultaneously. This action changes AOA, which changes coefficient of lift (CL) and affects overall lift of the rotor system. 1-36. 集體羽毛變化在所有旋翼葉片上同時以相同的方向改變入射角。這一動作改變了攻角,進而改變升力係數(CL)並影響整個旋翼系統的升力。
CyclicFeathering 循環羽化
1-37. Cyclic feathering changes angle of incidence differentially around the rotor system. Cyclic feathering createsadifferentialliftintherotorsystembychangingtheAOAdifferentiallyacrosstherotorsystem.Aviators use cyclic feathering to control attitude of the rotor system. It is the means to control rearward tilt of the rotor (blowback) caused by flapping action and (along with blade flapping) counteract dissymmetry of lift (section V). Cyclic feathering causes attitude of the rotor disk to change but does not change amount of lift the rotor system is producing. 1-37. 循環羽化使旋翼系統周圍的迎角發生差異性變化。循環羽化通過在旋翼系統中差異性地改變攻角來產生旋翼系統的差異升力。飛行員使用循環羽化來控制旋翼系統的姿態。這是控制由拍打動作引起的旋翼向後傾斜(回流)的手段,並且(連同葉片拍打)抵消升力的不對稱性(第五節)。循環羽化使旋翼盤的姿態發生變化,但不改變旋翼系統產生的升力大小。
Flapping 拍打
1-38.Theverticalmovementofabladeaboutaflappinghingeiscalledflapping.(FAA-H-8083-21B)Itoccurs in response to changes in lift due to changing velocity or cyclic feathering (figure 1-19). No flapping occurs whenthetip-pathplaneisperpendiculartothemast.Theflappingactionalone,oralongwithcyclicfeathering, controls dissymmetry of lift (section V). Flapping is the primary means of compensating for dissymmetry of lift. 1-38. 刀片圍繞擺動鉸鏈的垂直運動稱為擺動(FAA-H-8083-21B)。這是對於由於速度變化或循環羽毛調整而引起的升力變化的反應(圖 1-19)。當尖端路徑平面與桅杆垂直時,不會發生擺動。擺動動作本身或與循環羽毛調整一起控制升力的不對稱(第 V 節)。擺動是補償升力不對稱的主要手段。
1-39.Flappingalsoallowstherotorsystemtotiltinthedesireddirectioninresponsetocyclicinput.Seefigure 1-20, figure 1-21, figure 1-22 (page 1-14), and figure 1-23 (page 1-14) for depictions of flapping as it occurs throughout the rotor disk. 1-39. 擺動還允許旋翼系統根據循環輸入向所需方向傾斜。請參見圖 1-20、圖 1-21、圖 1-22(第 1-14 頁)和圖 1-23(第 1-14 頁)以查看旋翼盤中擺動的示意圖。
1-40.In the semirigid rotor system, a blade is not free to flap independently of the other blades because they areaffixedthroughthehub.Thebladesformonecontinuousunitmovingtogetheronacommonteeteringhinge. This hinge allows one blade to flap up as the opposite bladeflaps down, althoughblade flexlimits the amount of blade flapping. In the fully articulated rotor system, blades flap individually about a horizontal hinge pin. Therefore, each blade is free to move up and down independently fromall of the other blades. Aircraft design can reduce excessive flapping in several ways; for example, a forward tilt of the transmission and mast helps minimize flapping and installation of a synchronized elevator or stabilator (utility helicopter (UH)-60/attack helicopter (AH)-64) helps maintain the desired fuselage attitude to reduce flapping. 1-40。在半剛性轉子系統中,葉片不能獨立於其他葉片自由擺動,因為它們通過樞軸固定在一起。這些葉片形成一個連續的單元,沿著共同的擺動鉸鏈一起運動。這個鉸鏈允許一片葉片向上擺動,而對面的葉片則向下擺動,儘管葉片的彎曲限制了擺動的幅度。在完全關節式轉子系統中,葉片圍繞一個水平鉸鏈釘獨立擺動。因此,每片葉片可以獨立於其他所有葉片自由上下移動。飛機設計可以通過幾種方式減少過度擺動;例如,傳動裝置和桅杆的前傾有助於最小化擺動,而安裝同步升降舵或穩定翼(通用直升機(UH)-60/攻擊直升機(AH)-64)有助於保持所需的機身姿態以減少擺動。

LeadandLag(Hunting) 引導與滯後(狩獵)
1-42.The fore (lead) and aft (lag) movement of the rotor blade in the plane of rotation is lead and lag. (FAA- H-8083-21B)Thismovementrespondstochangesinangularvelocity(figure1-24,page1-15).Thisrotorblade action can only occur in a fullyarticulated rotor system, in which the systemis equipped with a vertical hinge pin (drag hinge) or elastomeric bearing providing a pivot point for each blade to move independently. In directionalflight,pitchangleandtheAOAofthebladesareconstantlychanging.ThesechangesinAOAcause changes inblade drag. Toprevent undue bending stress onthe blades and blade root, the blade is free to move fore and aft in the plane of rotation. The need to lead and lag is due to the Coriolis force. It is governed bythe law of conservation of angular momentum. This law states a body will continue to have the same rotational momentum unless acted on by an outside force. Two factors determine the rotational (angular) momentum— distance of the center of gravity(CG) fromthe center of rotation and rotational speed. If the CG moves closer to the center of rotation, the rotational speed must increase. If the CG moves farther away from the axis of rotation, rotational velocity will decrease (figure 1-24). 1-42. 旋翼葉片在旋轉平面中的前進(引導)和後退(滯後)運動稱為引導和滯後。(FAA-H-8083-21B)這種運動對角速度的變化作出反應(圖 1-24,頁 1-15)。這種旋翼葉片的動作僅能在完全關節式旋翼系統中發生,該系統配備有垂直鉸鏈銷(拖曳鉸鏈)或彈性軸承,為每個葉片提供獨立運動的支點。在定向飛行中,葉片的俯仰角和攻角(AOA)不斷變化。這些攻角的變化會導致葉片阻力的變化。為了防止對葉片和葉片根部施加過度的彎曲應力,葉片可以在旋轉平面中自由前後移動。引導和滯後的需求是由於科里奧利力。這是由角動量守恆定律所支配。該定律指出,物體將繼續保持相同的旋轉動量,除非受到外力的作用。兩個因素決定了旋轉(角)動量——重心(CG)距離旋轉中心的距離和旋轉速度。如果重心移近旋轉中心,則旋轉速度必須增加。 如果重心離旋轉軸越遠,旋轉速度將會減少(圖 1-24)。

The blade speeds up in reaction to this CG change, causing the blade to leadafewdegreesaheadofitsnormalpositioninthetip-pathplane(figure1-24,pointD).Thismotionrelieves stress that would have been imposed on the blade structure. 1-43. 當葉片向上擺動時,葉片的重心(圖 1-24,點 C)向內移動至旋轉軸,產生較小的運動半徑。葉片因應這一重心變化而加速,導致葉片在尖端路徑平面中領先於其正常位置幾度(圖 1-24,點 D)。這一運動減輕了本會施加於葉片結構上的應力。
Lag 延遲
1-44.Asabladeflapsdown,the CG oftheblade(figure1-24,point A) movesoutboardawayfromtheaxisof rotation, producinga greater radiusoftravel. The blade slowsdowninreactionto this CGchange, causingthe blade to lag a few degrees behind its normal position in the tip-path plane (figure 1-24, point B). This motion relieves stress that would have been imposed on the blade structure. 1-44. 當葉片向下拍打時,葉片的重心(圖 1-24,點 A)向外側移動,遠離旋轉軸,產生更大的運動半徑。葉片因應這一重心變化而減速,導致葉片在尖端路徑平面中落後於其正常位置幾度(圖 1-24,點 B)。這一運動減輕了本會施加在葉片結構上的應力。
SemirigidRotorSystem 半剛性轉子系統
1-45.Because of the design (under slung) of the semirigid rotor system, no change occurs in the travel radius oftheCGofthebladeassociatedwithbladeflapping(figure1-25,page1-16).Theangularvelocityoftheblade does not change. Dragdoes impose significant stresses onthe blade roots; a dragbraceisnormallyinstalled at the blade root to absorb some of these bending forces. 1-45. 由於半剛性轉子系統的設計(下懸式),與葉片擺動相關的重心行程半徑不會發生變化(圖 1-25,頁 1-16)。葉片的角速度不變。阻力確實對葉片根部施加了顯著的應力;通常在葉片根部安裝阻力支撐以吸收部分這些彎曲力。
1-46.Therigidrotorsystembehavesmorelikeafullyarticulatedrotorsystemanditscharacteristicsarebased on how much flexibility that the blade’s construction contains. The blades’ flexible root provides physical behavior similar to mechanical or elastomeric hinges, allowing the neutralizing forces in the same manner as Lead or Lag and Flapping do with other rotor designs. 1-46. 嚴格的轉子系統更像是一個完全關節式的轉子系統,其特性基於葉片結構的柔韌性。葉片的柔性根部提供了類似於機械或彈性鉸鏈的物理行為,允許以與其他轉子設計中前滯和擺動相同的方式中和力量。
1-47. The rigid rotor system, sometimes referred to as bearingless, is mechanically simple, but structurally complex because operating loads must be absorbed in bending rather than through hinges.

The rigid rotor system is very responsive and is usually not susceptibleto mastbumpinglikethe semirigidorarticulatedsystemsbecausetherotorhubsare mountedsolid to the main rotor mast. This allows the rotor and fuselage to move together as one entity and eliminates much of the oscillation usually present in the other rotor systems. Other advantages of the rigid rotor include a reductioninthe weightanddragoftherotorhubandalargerflappingarm, whichsignificantlyreducescontrol inputs. Without the complex hinges, the rotor systembecomes much more reliable and easier to maintain than the other rotor configurations. A disadvantage of this system is the quality of ride in turbulent or gusty air. Becausetherearenohingestohelpabsorbthelargerloads,vibrationsarefeltinthecabinmuchmorethanwith other rotor head designs. 1-47. 嚴格轉子系統,有時稱為無軸承系統,機械上簡單,但結構上複雜,因為操作負載必須通過彎曲而非鉸鏈來吸收。在這個系統中,葉片根部與轉子中心嚴密連接。嚴格轉子系統通過空氣動力學表現得像完全關節系統,但缺乏拍動或前後鉸鏈。相反,葉片通過彎曲來適應這些運動。它們不能拍動或前後移動,但可以調整角度。這些轉子系統提供了半剛性和完全關節系統的最佳特性。嚴格轉子系統反應非常敏捷,通常不易受到像半剛性或關節系統那樣的桅杆碰撞影響,因為轉子中心是固定安裝在主轉子桅杆上的。這使得轉子和機身能夠作為一個整體一起移動,並消除了其他轉子系統中通常存在的許多振盪。嚴格轉子的其他優點包括減少轉子中心的重量和阻力,以及更大的拍動臂,這顯著減少了控制輸入。 沒有複雜的鉸鏈,轉子系統變得比其他轉子配置更可靠且更易於維護。這個系統的一個缺點是在湍流或陣風中乘坐的舒適性。因為沒有鉸鏈來幫助吸收較大的負載,振動在駕駛艙中感受到的程度比其他轉子頭設計要高得多。

GyroscopicPrecession 陀螺進動
1-49.The phenomenon of precession occurs in rotating bodies that manifest an applied force 90 degrees after application in the direction of rotation. Although precession is not a dominant force in rotary-wing aerodynamics, aviators and designers must consider it, as turning rotor systems exhibit some of the characteristics of a gyro. Figure 1-26, page 1-17, illustrates effects of precession on a typical rotor disk when force is applied at a given point. A downward force applied to the disk at point A results in a downward movement of the disk at point B. 1-49. 預旋現象發生在旋轉物體中,當施加的力在旋轉方向上以 90 度的角度出現。雖然預旋在旋翼氣動力學中並不是主導力量,但飛行員和設計師必須考慮到它,因為轉動的旋翼系統顯示出某些陀螺的特徵。圖 1-26,頁 1-17,說明了在特定點施加力時,預旋對典型旋翼盤的影響。在 A 點施加的向下力量導致在 B 點的旋翼盤向下移動。
1-51. This behavior explains some fundamental effects occurring during various helicopter maneuvers. For example, the helicopter behaves differently when rolling into a right turn than when rolling into a left turn. During roll into a right turn, the aviator must correct for a nose-down tendency to maintain altitude. This correctionisrequiredbecauseprecessioncausesanose-downtendency.Duringarollintoaleftturn,precession causesanose-uptendency.Aviatorinputrequiredtomaintainaltitudeisdifferentduringaleftversusrightturn as gyroscopic precession acts in opposite directions. 1-51. 這種行為解釋了在各種直升機機動過程中發生的一些基本效應。例如,直升機在向右轉彎時的滾轉行為與向左轉彎時不同。在向右轉彎的滾轉過程中,飛行員必須修正向下的趨勢以維持高度。這種修正是必要的,因為進動會導致向下的趨勢。在向左轉彎的滾轉過程中,進動則會導致向上的趨勢。為了維持高度,飛行員在左轉和右轉時所需的輸入是不同的,因為陀螺進動的作用方向相反。

In its simplest form, movement of collective pitch control causes stationaryand rotatingswashplates mounted centrallyonthe rotorshaftto rise and descend.The movementof cyclicpitchcontrolcausesthe swashplatestotilt;thedirectionoftiltiscontrolledbythedirectioninwhichthe aviator moves the cyclic (figure 1-28, page 1-18). 1-53. 飛行員對集體和循環桨距控制的輸入通過一個複雜的系統傳遞到旋翼葉片。該系統由槓桿、混合單元、輸入伺服器、靜止和旋轉的搖臂板以及桨距變更臂組成(圖 1-27,頁 1-18)。在其最簡單的形式中,集體桨距控制的移動使安裝在旋翼軸中央的靜止和旋轉搖臂板上升和下降。循環桨距控制的移動使搖臂板傾斜;傾斜的方向由飛行員移動循環的方向控制(圖 1-28,頁 1-18)。
1-54.Figure 1-29, page 1-19, illustrates a swashplate tilted 2 degrees at two positions, points B and D. Points A and C form the axis about which the tilt occurs. At that axis, the swashplate remains at zero degrees. When the swashplate is moved, pitch-change arms transmit the resulting motion change to the rotor blade. As the pitch-changearms move upanddown witheachrotationoftheswashplate,bladepitchconstantlyincreasesor decreases.Iftheaviatorappliescycliccontroltotilttherotor,addingcollectivepitchdoesnotchangethetiltof the swashplate and rotor. It simply moves the swashplate upward so pitch is increased equally on all blades simultaneously, thereby increasing AOA and total lift. 1-54. 圖 1-29,頁 1-19,顯示了一個在兩個位置(點 B 和 D)傾斜 2 度的擺盤。點 A 和 C 形成了傾斜發生的軸心。在該軸心上,擺盤保持在零度。當擺盤移動時,變距臂將產生的運動變化傳遞到旋翼葉片。隨著變距臂在每次擺盤旋轉時上下移動,葉片的俯仰角不斷增加或減少。如果飛行員施加循環控制來傾斜旋翼,增加集體俯仰角不會改變擺盤和旋翼的傾斜。它只是將擺盤向上移動,使所有葉片的俯仰角同時均等增加,從而增加攻角和總升力。
1-55.Figure 1-30 illustrates how pitch-change arms move up and down on the tilted swashplate. The rate of vertical change throughout the rotation is not uniform. Vertical movement is larger during the 30 degrees of rotationatpointAthanatpointsBandC.Thisvariationrepeatsduringeach90degreesofrotation.Therateof vertical movement is lowest at the low and high points of the swashplate and highest when the pitch-change arms pass by the tilt axis of the swashplate. 1-55. 圖 1-30 顯示了變距臂如何在傾斜的搖擺盤上上下移動。整個旋轉過程中的垂直變化速率並不均勻。在 A 點的 30 度旋轉期間,垂直運動比 B 點和 C 點更大。這種變化在每 90 度的旋轉中重複。垂直運動的速率在搖擺盤的低點和高點時最低,而在變距臂經過搖擺盤的傾斜軸時最高。
1-56. Figure 1-31, page 1-20, shows a change in cyclic pitch (cyclic feathering). This causes rotor blades to climb from point A to point B, then dive or descend from point B to point A. In this way, the rotor is tilted in the direction of desired flight. 1-56. 圖 1-31,頁 1-20,顯示了循環桨距(循環羽化)的變化。這使得旋翼葉片從點 A 上升到點 B,然後從點 B 下降或潛降到點 A。這樣,旋翼就朝著所需的飛行方向傾斜。
1-57.TopassthroughpointsAand B,thebladesmustflap upand downona hingeorteeteronatrunnion. At the lowest flapping point (point A), the blades would appear to be at their lowest pitch angle; at the highest flapping point (point B), they would be at their highest pitch angle. If only aerodynamic considerations were involved,thismightbetrue.However,gyroscopicprecession(figure1-26,page1-17)causesthesepointstobe separated by 90 degrees of rotation. 1-57. 為了通過點 A 和 B,葉片必須在鉸鏈上上下拍動或在支座上搖擺。在最低拍動點(點 A),葉片似乎處於最低的俯仰角;在最高拍動點(點 B),它們則處於最高的俯仰角。如果僅涉及氣動力學考量,這可能是正確的。然而,陀螺進動(圖 1-26,頁 1-17)使這些點之間的旋轉角度相隔 90 度。

A decrease in lift resulting from a decrease in blade pitch angle andAOAcausesthebladetoflapdown;thebladereachesitsmaximumdownflappingdisplacement90degrees later in the direction of rotation. An increase in lift resulting from an increase in blade pitch angle and AOA causes the blade to flap up; the blade reaches its maximum upflapping displacement 90 degrees later in the directionofrotation.Figure1-32,page1-21,showstheresultingchangetotherotordisk’s attitude.Thecyclic pitchcausingblade flap must be placedonthe blades 90 degrees ofrotationbefore the lowest and highest flap aredesired.This90degreesofphaselagduetogyroscopicprecessionisaccountedforwhenrotorsaredesigned, and it ensures when the cyclic is pushed forward, the action tilts the swashplate assembly to place the cyclic pitch accordingly. To tilt the rotor disk forward, the lowest cyclic pitch on the blade needs to be over the right side of the helicopter and the highest cyclic pitch over the left side. The rotor always tilts in the direction in which the aviator moves the cyclic. 1-58. 循環運動在轉子盤的一個點上減少葉片的桨距,同時在 180 度的行程後增加相同數量的葉片桨距。由於葉片桨距角和攻角的減少導致升力減少,這使得葉片向下擺動;葉片在旋轉方向上 90 度後達到其最大下擺位移。由於葉片桨距角和攻角的增加導致升力增加,這使得葉片向上擺動;葉片在旋轉方向上 90 度後達到其最大上擺位移。圖 1-32,頁 1-21,顯示了轉子盤姿態的變化。造成葉片擺動的循環桨距必須在期望的最低和最高擺動之前 90 度的旋轉位置上施加在葉片上。這 90 度的相位延遲是由於陀螺前進效應,在設計轉子時已經考慮到,並確保當循環向前推時,動作會傾斜擺盤組件以相應地放置循環桨距。要使轉子盤向前傾斜,葉片上的最低循環桨距需要位於直升機的右側,而最高循環桨距則位於左側。 轉子總是朝著飛行員移動循環控制桿的方向傾斜。

Figure 1-33, page 1-21, illustrates a typical design feature used in most four-bladed rotor systems offsettingcycliccontrolinput90degreesfromwheretheaviatordesiresrotortilt.Rotorcontrolinputlocations are the left lateral servo (point A), right lateral servo (point B), and fore and aft servo (point C).

The design of the pitch- change horn, coupled with placement of the servo and tilt of the swashplate, provides the total offset. 1-59. 圖 1-33,頁 1-21,顯示了大多數四葉片轉子系統中使用的典型設計特徵,將循環控制輸入偏移 90 度,與飛行員希望的轉子傾斜位置不同。轉子控制輸入位置包括左側伺服器(點 A)、右側伺服器(點 B)和前後伺服器(點 C)。每個伺服器的位置相對於其名稱偏移 45 度。例如,前後輸入伺服器並不位於機頭或機尾位置,而是位於右前方,約在機頭和 3 點鐘位置之間的中間點。同樣,左側伺服器位於機頭和 9 點鐘位置之間的中間點。右側伺服器位於機尾和 3 點鐘位置之間的中間點。輸入伺服器的位置考慮了飛行員需要修正的部分陀螺進動偏移。此外,轉子葉片有一個變距角喇叭,向前延伸約 45 度,位於旋轉平面內。一根稱為變距桿的連接桿將飛行員的控制輸入從輸入伺服器傳遞到變距角喇叭。 變距喇叭的設計,加上伺服器的放置和搖臂的傾斜,提供了總偏移量。
1-60.Figure 1-34 illustrates typical cyclic pitch variation of a blade through one revolution with cyclic pitch controlfullforward. Degrees shown are for a typicalaircraftrotor system;figures would varywiththe type of helicopter. As described in the previous paragraph, the input servos and pitch-change horns are offset. With cyclic pitch control in the full forward position, the blade pitch angle is highest at the 9 o’clock position and lowest at the 3 o’clock position. The pitch angle begins decreasing as it passes the 9 o’clock position and continues to decrease until it reaches the 3 o’clock position. The pitch begins to increase and reaches the maximum pitch angle at the 9 o’clock position. Blade pitch angles over the nose and tail are about equal. 1-60. 圖 1-34 顯示了在循環變距控制全前進狀態下,葉片在一圈旋轉中的典型循環變距變化。顯示的度數是針對典型的飛機旋翼系統;數字會因直升機類型而異。如前一段所述,輸入伺服器和變距角喇叭是偏移的。在循環變距控制全前進位置時,葉片的變距角在 9 點鐘位置最高,在 3 點鐘位置最低。變距角在通過 9 點鐘位置時開始減少,並持續減少直到達到 3 點鐘位置。變距開始增加,並在 9 點鐘位置達到最大變距角。葉片在機頭和機尾的變距角大致相等。

Simply stated, the force (pitch angle) causing blade flap must be applied to the blade 90 degrees of rotation before the point where the aviator desires maximum blade flap. 1-61. 圖 1-34 顯示,葉片在距離最低俯仰角點 90 度的旋轉方向上,達到最低拍動點。最高拍動發生在距離最高俯仰角點 90 度的旋轉方向上。簡而言之,造成葉片拍動的力(俯仰角)必須在飛行員希望達到最大葉片拍動的點之前的 90 度旋轉處施加於葉片上。
1-62.Apatternsimilartofigure1-34couldbeconstructedforothercyclicpositionsinthecircleofcyclictravel. In each case, the same principles apply. Points of highest and lowest flapping are located 90 degrees in the direction of rotation from the points of highest and lowest blade pitch. 1-62. 可以為循環旅行的圓周上的其他循環位置構建類似於圖 1-34 的模式。在每種情況下,相同的原則適用。最高和最低拍動的點位於從最高和最低葉片角度的點向旋轉方向 90 度的位置。
1-63.Thehoveringattitudevariesbetweenaircraftdesigns.Thereareanumberofreasons whyafuselagehas a specific hovering attitude. Aviators should be familiar with the hovering characteristics of their respective aircraft. 1-63. 懸停姿態因飛機設計而異。機身具有特定懸停姿態的原因有很多。飛行員應熟悉各自飛機的懸停特性。
Single-RotorHelicopter 單旋翼直升機
1-64. The design of most fully articulated rotor systems includes an offset between the main rotor mast and blade attachment point. Centrifugal force acting on the offset tends to hold the mast perpendicular to the tip- pathplane(figure1-35,page1-23).Whenthe rotordiskistiltedlefttocounteractthe translatingtendency,the fuselage follows the main rotor mast and hangs slightly low on the left side. 1-64. 大多數完全關節式轉子系統的設計包括主轉子桅杆與葉片連接點之間的偏移。作用於偏移的離心力傾向於使桅杆垂直於尖端路徑平面(圖 1-35,頁 1-23)。當轉子盤向左傾斜以抵消平移趨勢時,機身跟隨主轉子桅杆,並在左側稍微低懸。

Because trunnion bearings are centered on the mast, the mast does not tend to follow the tilt of the rotor disk during hover. In addition, the mast does not tend to remain perpendicular to the tip-path plane as it doeswithafullyarticulatedrotorsystem.Instead,themasttendstohangverticallyunderthetrunnionbearings, evenwhentherotordiskistiltedlefttocompensatefortranslatingtendency(figure1-36,pointB).Becausethe mast remains vertical, the fuselage hangs level laterally unless other forces affect it. 1-65. 懸掛在半剛性旋翼系統下的機身在負載不平衡或尾旋翼齒輪箱低於主旋翼的情況下,會保持側向水平(圖 1-36,頁 1-23)。機身保持水平是因為旋翼桿與旋翼系統連接點(支撐軸承)之間沒有偏移。由於支撐軸承位於桿的中心,桿在懸停時不會隨著旋翼盤的傾斜而傾斜。此外,桿不會像完全關節旋翼系統那樣保持垂直於尖端路徑平面。相反,即使旋翼盤向左傾斜以補償平移趨勢,桿也傾向於在支撐軸承下垂直懸掛(圖 1-36,點 B)。由於桿保持垂直,機身在沒有其他力量影響的情況下會保持側向水平。
1-66.Whenthereis forwardtiltofthe mast, the tailrotorgearboxisprobablylower thanthe mainrotor.Main rotor thrust above tail rotor thrust to the right causes the fuselage to tilt laterally left (figure 1-37, page 1-24). Although main rotor thrust to the left is equal to tail rotor thrust to the right, it acts at a greater distance from the CG, creating a greater turning moment on the fuselage. This is more pronounced in helicopters with semirigid rotor systems than those with fully articulated rotor systems. Tail rotor thrust acting at the plane of rotation of the main rotor would not change the attitude of the fuselage. The main rotor mast in semirigid and fullyarticulatedrotorsystemsmaybedesignedwithaforwardtiltrelativetothefuselage.Duringforwardflight, forward tilt provides a level longitudinal fuselage attitude, resulting in reduced parasite drag; during hover, it results in a tail-low fuselage attitude. 1-66. 當桅杆向前傾斜時,尾旋翼齒輪箱可能低於主旋翼。主旋翼的推力高於尾旋翼推力向右,導致機身向左側傾斜(圖 1-37,頁 1-24)。儘管主旋翼向左的推力等於尾旋翼向右的推力,但它在重心(CG)處的距離更大,從而在機身上產生更大的轉矩。在半剛性旋翼系統的直升機中,這種情況比在完全關節旋翼系統的直升機中更為明顯。作用於主旋翼旋轉平面的尾旋翼推力不會改變機身的姿態。半剛性和完全關節旋翼系統中的主旋翼桅杆可能設計為相對於機身向前傾斜。在前飛行中,向前傾斜提供了一個水平的縱向機身姿態,從而減少寄生阻力;在懸停時,則導致機身尾部較低的姿態。
1-67. In tandem-rotor helicopters, the forward and aft rotor systems are tilted forward due to transmission mounting design.

Somemodelsautomaticallycompensateforthisnose-highattitudethroughautomaticprogrammingoftherotor systems. 1-67. 在串列旋翼直升機中,前後旋翼系統因傳動安裝設計而向前傾斜。這種傾斜有助於減少前飛行中的過度低頭姿態,並允許飛機在地面或水面上向前滑行。大多數串列旋翼直升機在約 5 度的高頭姿態下懸停。一些型號通過旋翼系統的自動編程自動補償這種高頭姿態。
PendularAction 擺動動作
1-68.The fuselage of the helicopter has considerable mass and is suspended from a single point (single-rotor helicopters). It is free to oscillate laterally or longitudinally like a pendulum. Normally, the fuselage follows rulesgoverningpendulums,balance,andinertia.Rotorsystems,however,followrulesgoverningaerodynamics, dynamics, and gyroscopes. These two unrelated systems have beendesigned to work well together, inspite of apparentconflict.Otherfactors,suchasovercontrolling,cyclic-controlresponse,andshiftofattitude,affectthe relationship of the rotor system and fuselage. 1-68. 直升機的機身具有相當的質量,並且懸掛在一個單一的點上(單旋翼直升機)。它可以像擺一樣自由地在橫向或縱向上擺動。通常,機身遵循擺動、平衡和慣性的規則。然而,旋翼系統則遵循空氣動力學、動力學和陀螺儀的規則。這兩個不相關的系統被設計成能夠良好協同工作,儘管表面上存在衝突。其他因素,如過度控制、循環控制反應和姿態變化,影響旋翼系統和機身之間的關係。
Overcontrolling 過度控制
1-69.Overcontrolling occurs when the aviator moves the cyclic control stick, causing rotor tip-path changes notreflectedincorrespondingfuselage-attitudechanges.Correctcycliccontrolmovements(freeofovercontrol) cause the rotor tip-path and fuselage to move in unison. 1-69. 過度控制發生在飛行員移動循環控制桿時,導致旋翼尖端路徑的變化未反映在相應的機身姿態變化中。正確的循環控制動作(不受過度控制影響)使旋翼尖端路徑和機身同步移動。
CyclicControlResponse 循環控制反應
1-70.The rotor response to cyclic control input on a single-rotor helicopter has no lag. Rotor blades respond instantly to the slightest touch of cyclic control. The fuselage response to lateral cyclic is noticeably different fromtheresponsetoforeandaftcyclicapplications.Normally,considerablymoreforeandaftcyclicmovement isrequiredtoachievethesamefuselageresponseasachievedfromanequalamountoflateralcyclic.Thisisnot a lag in rotor response; rather as figure 1-38, page 1-25, shows, it is due to more fuselage inertia around the lateral axis thanaround the longitudinal axis. For single-rotor helicopters, the normal corrective device for the lateralaxisistheadditionofasynchronizedelevatororstabilatorattachedtothetailboom.Thisdeviceproduces lift forces keeping the fuselage of the helicopter in proper alignment with the rotor at normal flight airspeed. 1-70. 單旋翼直升機的轉子對循環控制輸入的反應沒有延遲。轉子葉片對循環控制的最輕觸立即作出反應。機身對側向循環的反應與對前後循環的反應明顯不同。通常,為了達到與相等側向循環相同的機身反應,需要 considerably 更多的前後循環運動。這不是轉子反應的延遲;而是如圖 1-38,頁 1-25 所示,這是由於機身在側向軸周圍的慣性比在縱向軸周圍的慣性更大。對於單旋翼直升機,側向軸的正常修正裝置是增加一個同步的升降舵或穩定舵,該裝置附加在尾桿上。這個裝置產生升力,保持直升機的機身在正常飛行空速下與轉子保持正確對齊。
This alignment helps reduce blade flapping and extends the allowable CG range of the helicopter; however, it is ineffective at slow airspeeds. 這種對齊有助於減少刀片擺動並擴大直升機的允許重心範圍;然而,在低空速下效果不佳。
1-71.FuelcellsnormallyhaveaslightaftCG.Asfuelisused,aslightshifttoamorenose-lowattitudeoccurs. Because of fuel expenditure and lighter fuselage, cruise attitudes tend to shift slightlylower. As fuel loads are reduced, drag affects the lighter fuselage more, resulting in a slight shift to a more nose-down attitude during flight. 1-71. 燃料電池通常具有輕微的後重心。隨著燃料的消耗,會發生輕微的向前低頭姿態的轉變。由於燃料的消耗和機身變輕,巡航姿態往往會稍微降低。隨著燃料負載的減少,阻力對較輕的機身影響更大,導致在飛行過程中輕微轉變為更向下的姿態。
1-72. A number of forces act upon an aircraft while in flight. While it is not necessary to memorize the lift equation,anaviatorbenefitssignificantlyfromathoroughunderstandingoftheforcesdescribedinthissection. An aviator should strive to explain the relationships of these forces and the results on the aircraft. 1-72. 在飛行過程中,有多種力量作用於飛機上。雖然不必記住升力方程,但飛行員對本節所描述的力量有透徹的理解將大有裨益。飛行員應努力解釋這些力量之間的關係及其對飛機的影響。

This is known asTAF(figure1-39).TAFactsatthecenterofpressureontheairfoilandisnormallyinclinedupandrear.TAF, sometimes called resultant force, may be divided into two components, lift and drag. 1-73. 當空氣流過翼型時,上下表面之間會產生壓力差。這個壓力差,加上空氣對翼型通過的阻力,會在翼型上產生一個力。這被稱為 TAF(圖 1-39)。TAF 作用於翼型的壓力中心,通常向上和向後傾斜。TAF,有時稱為合力,可以分為兩個分量:升力和阻力。

LIFTANDLIFTEQUATION 升力與升力方程式
1-74. Lift is the component of the total aerodynamic force on a airfoil and acts perpendicular to the relative wind. (FAA-H-8083-21B) (figure 1-40, page 1-26).Theresultant relative wind is the referenced relative wind associated with lift. 1-74. 升力是作用於翼型的總空氣動力學力的組成部分,並且垂直於相對風。(FAA-H-8083-21B)(圖 1-40,第 1-26 頁)。結果相對風是與升力相關的參考相對風。

DRAG 拖曳

Drag is the net aerodynamic force parallel to the relative wind, usually the sum of two components: induceddragandparasitedrag.(FAA-H-8083-25B)(figure1-40).Theresultantrelativewindisthereferenced relative wind associated with drag. Drag is the force opposing the motion of an airfoil through the air. 1-77. 阻力是與相對風平行的淨空氣動力學力,通常是兩個組件的總和:誘導阻力和寄生阻力。(FAA-H-8083-25B) (圖 1-40)。結果相對風是與阻力相關的參考相對風。阻力是反對翼型在空氣中運動的力量。

Itincludes formdrag, skinfriction, and interference drag associated with the fuselage, engine cowlings, mast and hub, landing gear, wing stores, external load, and rough finish paint. Parasite drag increases with airspeed and is the dominant type at high airspeeds. Curve A in figure 1-41 shows parasite drag. 1-81. 寄生阻力是由飛機的非升力部分產生的。它包括與機身、引擎罩、桅杆和輪轂、起落架、翼載、外部負載以及粗糙表面塗料相關的形狀阻力、表面摩擦和干擾阻力。寄生阻力隨著空速的增加而增加,並且在高空速下是主要的阻力類型。圖 1-41 中的曲線 A 顯示了寄生阻力。

1-85. Drag is a major component used in conjunction with flight testing and performance data to develop performance planning charts found in operator manuals which explains the similar appearance in these charts (figure 1-41). Performance planning charts allow aviators to compute expected performance data based on various weather conditions, loadingconfigurations, and airspeeds.Thisdata isrequired todetermine predicted 1-85. 拖曳是與飛行測試和性能數據一起使用的主要組件,用於開發操作手冊中找到的性能規劃圖表,這些圖表解釋了這些圖表中相似的外觀(圖 1-41)。性能規劃圖表允許飛行員根據各種天氣條件、載荷配置和空速計算預期的性能數據。這些數據是確定預測所需的。

Key information required for performance planning includes maximum range airspeed, maximum endurance airspeed, maximum rate-of-climb airspeed and the torques and fuel flows associated with those airspeeds. 在各種任務配置期間的空速、扭矩和燃料流量。性能規劃所需的關鍵信息包括最大航程空速、最大耐久空速、最大爬升率空速以及與這些空速相關的扭矩和燃料流量。

Because cruise charts are not drag charts, it can be noted the lowest point of a drag chart does not necessarily match the lowest point of the power required curve in a cruise chart. 1-86. 最大範圍空速是應該允許直升機飛行最遠距離的空速。它是通過飛行在空速與總阻力最低點交叉的地方來確定的(圖 1-41,頁 1-27 的 E 點)。然而,由於飛行測試和飛機性能,巡航圖表用於確定維持該空速所需的扭矩和燃料流量。由於巡航圖表不是阻力圖,因此可以注意到,阻力圖的最低點不一定與巡航圖中所需功率曲線的最低點相匹配。

1-89. A helicopter rotor system depends primarily on rotation to produce relative wind, which develops the aerodynamic force required for flight. This action subjects the rotor system to forces peculiar to all rotating masses.Oneoftheforcesproducediscentrifugalforce.Theapparentforcetendstomakerotatingbodiesmove awayfromthecenterofrotation.Therotatingbladesofahelicopterproduceveryhighcentrifugalloadsonthe hub and blade attachment assemblies. In rotary-wing aircraft, this is the dominant force affecting the rotor system;allotherforcesacttomodifyit.Asarotorsystembeginstoturn,thebladesbegintorisefromthestatic position because of centrifugal force. At operating speed, the blades extend straight out although the rotor system is at flat pitch (zero degree angle of incidence) and are not producing lift. As the aircraft develops lift during takeoff and flight, the blades rise above the straight-out position and assume a coned position. The amountofconingdependsonRPM,grossweight,andgravitational(G)forcesexperiencedduringflight.Figure 1-42, page 1-29, illustrates the various positions of a rotor blade in the static position, at flat pitch, and when generating lift. Excessive coning can occur if RPM is too low, gross weight is too high, an aircraft is flying in turbulentair,ortheG-forcesexperiencedaretoohigh.Thisexcessiveconingcancauseundesirablestresseson the components and a decrease in lift because of a decrease in effective disk area (figure 1-43, page 1-29). 1-89. 直升機旋翼系統主要依賴旋轉來產生相對風,這會產生飛行所需的空氣動力學力量。這一行為使旋翼系統受到所有旋轉質量特有的力量影響。產生的力量之一是離心力。這種表觀力量傾向於使旋轉物體遠離旋轉中心。直升機的旋轉葉片對樞軸和葉片連接組件產生非常高的離心負荷。在旋翼飛機中,這是影響旋翼系統的主導力量;所有其他力量都作用於修正它。當旋翼系統開始旋轉時,葉片因離心力而從靜止位置上升。在運行速度下,葉片雖然旋翼系統處於平坦的俯仰(零度入射角),但仍然向外伸展,並未產生升力。隨著飛機在起飛和飛行過程中產生升力,葉片會高於直伸位置並呈現圓錐形位置。圓錐形的程度取決於轉速、總重量和在飛行過程中經歷的重力(G)力量。 圖 1-42,頁 1-29,顯示了旋翼葉片在靜止位置、平坦桨距和產生升力時的各種位置。如果轉速過低、總重量過高、飛機在湍流空氣中飛行,或所經歷的重力過高,則可能會發生過度圓錐現象。這種過度圓錐現象可能會對組件造成不良應力,並因有效圓盤面積減少而導致升力下降(圖 1-43,頁 1-29)。

The engine power required to motor and control the tail rotor can be significant. The aviator must consider this during performance planning for varying conditions and situations. It is easy to understand why various emergency procedures have been written to compensate for problems such as loss of engine power, insufficient engine power, and tail rotor malfunction. Most American-built single-rotor helicoptersturnthemainrotorinacounterclockwisedirection;therefore,theapplicationofrightpedaldecreases pitch in the tail rotor and creates less thrust, allowing the nose of the aircraft to turn right. The opposite is true for application of left pedal. 扭矩效應。必須抵消扭矩以維持飛機的控制;反扭矩旋翼執行此任務(圖 1-44)。在串聯旋翼或同軸直升機中,兩個旋翼系統以相反方向旋轉,有效地抵消了扭矩效應。大多數旋翼機擁有單一主旋翼,並需要尾旋翼或其他手段來抵消扭矩效應。由於初始動作是由引擎功率(扭矩)驅動主旋翼系統產生的,因此這個扭矩必然會隨著施加的功率或執行的機動而變化。尾旋翼設計為可變螺距的反扭矩旋翼,以適應此類系統的變化效應。尾旋翼通常通過驅動軸安排由主傳動系統驅動,並位於尾桁的末端。驅動和控制尾旋翼所需的引擎功率可能相當可觀。飛行員在針對不同條件和情況進行性能規劃時必須考慮這一點。很容易理解為什麼會編寫各種緊急程序來補償如引擎功率喪失、引擎功率不足和尾旋翼故障等問題。 大多數美國製造的單旋翼直升機主旋翼以逆時針方向旋轉;因此,施加右踏板會降低尾旋翼的俯仰角並產生較少的推力,使飛機的機頭向右轉。施加左踏板則正好相反。

Heading control is accomplished in tandem-rotor helicopters by differential lateral tilting of the rotor disks.Whenthedirectionalpedal(rightorleft)isapplied,theforwardrotordisktiltsinthe samedirectionand the aft rotor disk tilts in the opposite direction. The result is a hovering turn around a vertical axis, midway between the rotors. 1-94. 在雙旋翼直升機中,航向控制是通過旋翼盤的側向差異傾斜來實現的。當方向踏板(右或左)被施加時,前旋翼盤向相同方向傾斜,而後旋翼盤則向相反方向傾斜。結果是在旋翼之間的垂直軸上進行懸停轉向。
1-95.Heading control in forward flight is accomplished bycoordinated use of lateral cyclic tilt on both rotors for roll control and differential cyclic tilt on the rotors for yaw control.

BALANCEOFFORCES 力量平衡
1-96.Newton’slawofaccelerationstatestheforcerequiredtoproduceachangeinmotionofabodyisdirectly proportional to its mass and rate of change in its velocity. This means motion is started, stopped, or changed when forces acting on the body become unbalanced. Rate of change (acceleration) depends on the magnitude of the unbalanced force and on the mass of the body to which it is applied. This principle is the basis for all helicopter flight—vertical, forward, rearward, sideward, or hovering. In each case, total force generated by a rotorsystemisalwaysperpendiculartothetip-pathplane(figure1-45throughfigure1-48).Forthisdiscussion, thisforceisdividedintotwocomponents:liftandthrust.Theliftcomponentsupportsaircraftweightwhilethe thrust component acts horizontally to accelerate or decelerate the helicopter in the desired direction. Aviators direct thrust ina desired directionbytiltingthe tip-pathplane. At a hover ina no-wind condition, all opposing forcesareinbalance;theyareequalandopposite.Therefore,liftandweightareequal,resultinginthehelicopter remaining stationary (figure 1-45). 1-96. 牛頓的加速度定律指出,產生物體運動變化所需的力量與其質量及速度變化率成正比。這意味著當作用於物體的力量變得不平衡時,運動會開始、停止或改變。變化率(加速度)取決於不平衡力量的大小以及施加於物體的質量。這一原則是所有直升機飛行的基礎——垂直、向前、向後、側向或懸停。在每種情況下,旋翼系統產生的總力量始終垂直於尖端路徑平面(圖 1-45 至圖 1-48)。在本討論中,這股力量被分為兩個組件:升力和推力。升力組件支撐飛機的重量,而推力組件則水平作用以加速或減速直升機朝所需方向。飛行員通過傾斜尖端路徑平面來引導推力朝所需方向。在無風條件下的懸停狀態下,所有對抗力量處於平衡狀態;它們是相等且相反的。因此,升力和重量相等,導致直升機保持靜止(圖 1-45)。

Figure1-46,page1-32,illustratesanunbalancedconditioninwhichthe aviatorhaschangedtheattitudeofthe rotor disk creating a lift and thrust vector, resulting in a total force forward of the vertical. No parasite drag is shown as the aircraft has not started to move forward. 1-97. 要使直升機朝某個方向移動,必須施加一個力以造成不平衡狀態。圖 1-46,頁 1-32,說明了一種不平衡狀態,其中飛行員改變了旋翼盤的姿態,產生了升力和推力向量,導致總力向前偏離垂直方向。由於飛機尚未開始向前移動,因此未顯示寄生阻力。
1-98.Astheaircraftbeginstoaccelerateinthedirectionofappliedthrust,parasitedragdevelops.Whenparasite drag increases to be equal to thrust, the aircraft no longer accelerates because the forces are again in balance (figure 1-47) as the aircraft has achieved steady-state (unaccelerated) flight. 1-98. 當飛機開始朝施加推力的方向加速時,寄生阻力會產生。當寄生阻力增加到等於推力時,飛機不再加速,因為力量再次達到平衡(圖 1-47),飛機已達到穩態(不加速)飛行。
1-99.To return the aircraft to a hover, the aviator changes the disk attitude to unbalance the forces (figure 1- 48). By tilting the rotor disk aft, the thrust force acts in the same direction as parasite drag and airspeed decreases. 1-99. 為了將飛機恢復到懸停狀態,飛行員改變旋翼盤的姿態以不平衡各種力量(圖 1-48)。通過將旋翼盤向後傾斜,推力方向與寄生阻力相同,空速減少。
1-100.Understanding hovering flight is critical for the safe operation of the aircraft. Aircraft weight, engine power parameters, and aerodynamic forces must be factored into pre-mission planning. Hover checks verify performance planning and ensure parameters are correct for the mission. 1-100. 理解懸停飛行對於安全操作飛機至關重要。飛機重量、引擎功率參數和空氣動力學力必須納入任務前的規劃中。懸停檢查驗證性能規劃並確保參數對於任務是正確的。
AIRFLOWINHOVERINGFLIGHT 懸停飛行中的氣流
1-101.An increase of blade pitch (through application of collective) that increases AOA, generates the additional lift necessary to hover (figure 1-49, page 1-33). For a helicopter to hover, lift produced bythe rotor system must equal the total weight of the helicopter. In a no-wind condition, the tip-path plane remains horizontal. As forces of lift and weight are in balance during stationery hover, those forces must be altered— through application of collective—to either climb or descend vertically. 1-101. 增加葉片角度(透過集體控制的應用)會增加攻角,產生懸停所需的額外升力(圖 1-49,頁 1-33)。為了讓直升機懸停,旋翼系統產生的升力必須等於直升機的總重量。在無風條件下,尖端路徑平面保持水平。由於在靜止懸停時升力和重量的力量處於平衡狀態,這些力量必須透過集體控制的應用來改變,以便垂直上升或下降。
1-102.Atahover,therotor-tipvortex(airswirlatthetipoftherotorblades)reduceseffectivenessoftheouter blade portions. Vortices of the preceding blade affect the lift of any other blade in the rotor system. When maintaining a stationery hover, this continuous creation of vortices—combined with the ingestion of existing vortices—is the primary cause of high power requirements for hovering. Rotor-tip vortices are part of the induced flow and increase induced drag. 1-102. 在懸停時,旋翼尖渦(旋翼葉片尖端的氣流漩渦)降低了外部葉片部分的效能。前一葉片的渦流會影響旋翼系統中任何其他葉片的升力。在保持靜止懸停時,這種持續產生的渦流—加上對現有渦流的吸入—是懸停所需高功率的主要原因。旋翼尖渦是誘導流的一部分,並增加了誘導阻力。

With a downward airflow altering the relative wind, the AOA is decreased so less aerodynamic force is produced.Thischangerequirestheaviatortoincreasecollectivepitchtoproduceenoughaerodynamicforceto hover. 1-103. 在懸停期間,旋翼葉片向下方移動大量空氣通過旋翼系統。這種空氣的運動還引入了另一個元素——誘導流——進入相對風,這改變了氣動翼的攻角。如果沒有誘導流,相對風將與氣動翼的飛行路徑相對且平行。隨著向下的氣流改變相對風,攻角減小,因此產生的氣動力也減少。這一變化要求飛行員增加總體桨距,以產生足夠的氣動力來懸停。

The aviator achieves maximum groundeffectwhenhoveringoversmoothhardsurfaces.Whentheaviatorhoversoversuchterrainastallgrass, trees, bushes, rough terrain, and water, maximum ground effect is reduced. Two reasons for this phenomenon are induced flow and vortex generation. 1-105. 地面效應是指當接近地面時,因氣流干擾而導致的旋翼系統效率提高。地面效應使相對風更為水平,升力向量更為垂直,並減少誘導阻力。這些因素使旋翼系統的效率更高。飛行員在平滑堅硬的表面上懸停時達到最大地面效應。當飛行員在高草、樹木、灌木、崎嶇地形和水面等地形上懸停時,最大地面效應會減少。造成這一現象的兩個原因是誘導流和渦流生成。
InducedFlow 誘導流
1-106.Proximityofthehelicoptertothegroundinterruptsairflowunderthehelicopterbyalteringthevelocity of induced flow. Induced flow velocity is reduced when closer to the ground, which in turn, increases AOA, reduces the amount of induced drag, allows a more vertical lift vector, and increases rotor system efficiency. 1-106. 直升機靠近地面時會通過改變誘導流的速度來干擾直升機下方的氣流。當靠近地面時,誘導流速度會降低,這反過來增加了攻角,減少了誘導阻力,允許更垂直的升力向量,並提高了旋翼系統的效率。

More power to hover OGE than IGE is required by this increased pitch angle and drag. 1-110. 將直升機放置在接近地面的好處在 IGE 高度以上會消失。在這個高度以上,保持懸停所需的功率在相似條件下(如風)幾乎保持不變。圖 1-51,頁 1-35,顯示了 OGE 懸停。誘導流速增加,導致 AOA 減少。需要更高的葉片俯仰角以維持與 IGE 懸停相同的 AOA。增加的俯仰角也會產生更多的阻力。由於這個增加的俯仰角和阻力,懸停 OGE 所需的功率比 IGE 更高。
1-111.During hovering flight, the counterclockwise rotating, single-rotor helicopter has a tendency to drift laterallytotheright.Thetranslatingtendency(figure1-52,page1-36)resultsfromrightlateraltail-rotorthrust exerted to compensate for main rotor torque (main rotor turning in a counterclockwise direction). The aviator must compensate for this right translating tendency of the helicopter by tilting the main rotor disk to the left. Thislateraltiltcreatesamainrotorforcetotheleftcompensatingforthetail-rotorthrusttotheright.Helicopter designusuallyincludesoneormoreofthefollowingfeatures,whichhelptheaviatorcompensatefortranslating tendency: 1-111. 在懸停飛行期間,逆時針旋轉的單旋翼直升機有向右側漂移的傾向。這種平移傾向(圖 1-52,頁 1-36)是由於右側尾旋翼推力的作用,以補償主旋翼的扭矩(主旋翼以逆時針方向旋轉)。飛行員必須通過將主旋翼盤傾斜向左來補償直升機的右側平移傾向。這種側向傾斜產生向左的主旋翼力,以補償向右的尾旋翼推力。直升機設計通常包括以下一個或多個特徵,幫助飛行員補償平移傾向:

AIRFLOWINFORWARDFLIGHT 前進飛行中的氣流
1-113.Airflow across the rotor system in forward flight varies from airflow at a hover. In forward flight, air flows opposite the aircraft’s flight path. The velocity of this air flow equals the helicopter’s forward speed. Because the blades turn in a circular pattern, the velocity of airflow across a blade depends on the position of the blade in the plane of rotation at a given instant, its rotational velocity, and airspeed of the helicopter. Therefore, the airflow meeting each blade varies continuously as the blade rotates. The highest velocity of airflowoccurs over the right side (3 o’clock position) of the helicopter (advancing blade in a rotor system that turns counterclockwise) and decreases to rotational velocity over the nose. It continues to decrease until the lowest velocity of airflow occurs over the left side (9-o’clock position) of the helicopter (retreating blade). As thebladecontinuestorotate,velocityoftheairflowthenincreasestorotationalvelocityoverthetail.Itcontinues to increase until the blade is back at the 3 o’clock position. 1-113. 在前進飛行中,旋翼系統的氣流與懸停時的氣流有所不同。在前進飛行中,氣流與飛機的飛行路徑相反。這股氣流的速度等於直升機的前進速度。由於葉片以圓形模式旋轉,氣流在某一瞬間穿過葉片的速度取決於葉片在旋轉平面中的位置、其旋轉速度以及直升機的空速。因此,迎接每片葉片的氣流隨著葉片的旋轉而不斷變化。氣流的最高速度出現在直升機的右側(3 點鐘位置)(在逆時針旋轉的旋翼系統中為前進葉片),並在機頭處減少至旋轉速度。它繼續減少,直到氣流的最低速度出現在直升機的左側(9 點鐘位置)(為後退葉片)。隨著葉片繼續旋轉,氣流的速度隨後在尾部增加至旋轉速度。它繼續增加,直到葉片回到 3 點鐘位置。
1-114.The advancing blade (figure 1-53, blade A, page 1-37) moves in the same direction as the helicopter. The velocity of the air meeting this blade equals rotational velocity of the blade plus wind velocity resulting from forward airspeed. The retreating blade (blade C) moves in a flow of air moving in the opposite direction ofthe helicopter. The velocityofairflowmeetingthisblade equalsrotationalvelocityofthe blade minus wind velocityresultingfromforward airspeed.The blades (BandD) over the nose and tail move essentiallyat right angles to the airflow created by forward airspeed; the velocity of airflow meeting these blades equals the rotational velocity. This results in a change to velocity of airflow all across the rotor disk and a change to the lift pattern of the rotor system. Figure 1-54, page 1-38, depicts force vectors acting on various blade areas in forward flight. 1-114. 前進的葉片(圖 1-53,葉片 A,頁 1-37)與直升機的移動方向相同。迎面而來的空氣速度等於葉片的旋轉速度加上由前進空速產生的風速。後退的葉片(葉片 C)則在與直升機相反方向的氣流中移動。迎面而來的氣流速度等於葉片的旋轉速度減去由前進空速產生的風速。位於機頭和機尾的葉片(B 和 D)基本上與由前進空速產生的氣流成直角;迎面而來的氣流速度等於旋轉速度。這導致整個旋翼盤的氣流速度發生變化,並改變了旋翼系統的升力模式。圖 1-54,頁 1-38,描繪了在前進飛行中作用於各個葉片區域的力向量。
1-116.PartAoffigure1-54,page1-38,showsreverseflow.Attherootoftheretreatingbladeisanareawhere theairflowsbackwardfromthetrailingtotheleadingedgeoftheblade.Thisisduetowindcreatedbyforward airspeed being greater than rotational velocity at this point on the blade. 1-116. 圖 1-54 的 A 部分,頁 1-38,顯示了逆流。在後退葉片的根部,有一個區域,空氣從葉片的尾緣流向前緣反向流動。這是因為在葉片的這一點,前進的空氣速度大於旋轉速度所產生的風。
NegativeStall 負面失速
1-117.PartBoffigure1-54showsnegativestall.Inthenegativestallarea,rotationalvelocityexceedsforward flight velocity, causing resultant relative wind to move toward the leading edge. The resultant relative wind is so far above the chord line, a negative AOA above the critical AOA results. The blade stalls with a negative AOA. 1-117. 圖 1-54 的 B 部分顯示負失速。在負失速區域,旋轉速度超過前進飛行速度,導致合成相對風向前緣移動。合成相對風遠高於弦線,導致在臨界攻角之上出現負攻角。葉片在負攻角下失速。
NegativeLift 負升力
1-118.PartCoffigure1-54showsnegativelift.Inthenegativeliftarea,rotationalvelocity,inducedflow,and blade flapping combine to reduce the AOA from a negative stall to an AOA that causes the blade to produce negative lift. 1-118. 圖 1-54 的 C 部分顯示負升力。在負升力區域,旋轉速度、誘導流和葉片擺動結合在一起,將攻角從負失速降低到導致葉片產生負升力的攻角。
PositiveLiftandPositiveStall 正升力與正失速
1-119.Figure 1-54, parts D and E, showpositive lift and positive stall. That portion of the blade outboard of the no-lift areas produces positive lift. In the positive lift area, the resultant relative wind produces a positive AOA.Undercertainconditions,itispossibletohaveapositivestallareanearthebladetip.SectionVIIIcovers retreating blade stall. 1-119. 圖 1-54 的 D 和 E 部分顯示正升力和正失速。葉片外側的無升力區域產生正升力。在正升力區域,結果相對風產生正攻角。在某些條件下,葉片尖端附近可能會有正失速區域。第八節涵蓋後退葉片失速。

There mustbe a meansofcompensating, correcting, or eliminatingthisunequal lift to attain symmetry of lift. 1-120. 升力的不對稱是指由於旋翼盤面上前進葉片半部與後退葉片半部的氣流速度差異所造成的升力不均。 (FAA-H-8083-21B) 這種升力差異會使直升機在任何情況下都無法控制,除了在平靜的風中懸停。 必須有一種方法來補償、修正或消除這種不均勻的升力,以達到升力的對稱。
1-121.In forward flight, two factors in the lift equation, blade area and air density, are the same for the advancingandretreatingblades.Airfoilshapeisfixedforagivenblade,andairdensitycannotbeaffected;the onlyremainingvariablesarebladespeedandAOA.RotorRPMcontrolsbladespeed.BecauserotorRPMmust remain relatively constant, blade speed also remains relatively constant. This leaves AOA as the one variable remaining that can compensate for dissymmetry of lift. This compensation is accomplished through a combination of or individually by blade flapping and cyclic feathering. 1-121。在前進飛行中,升力方程中的兩個因素,葉片面積和空氣密度,對於前進和後退的葉片是相同的。對於給定的葉片,翼型形狀是固定的,空氣密度也無法受到影響;唯一剩下的變數是葉片速度和攻角(AOA)。轉子轉速(RPM)控制葉片速度。由於轉子轉速必須保持相對穩定,葉片速度也保持相對穩定。這使得攻角成為唯一可以補償升力不對稱的變數。這種補償是通過葉片拍動和循環羽化的組合或單獨實現的。

1-122.Whenbladeflappingcompensatesfordissymmetryoflift,theupwardanddownwardflappingmotion changes induced flow velocity. This changes AOA on the advancing and retreating blades. 1-122. 當刀片拍動補償升力的不對稱時,向上和向下的拍動運動改變了誘導流速。這改變了前進和後退刀片的攻角。
AdvancingBlade 進階刀刃
1-123.As the relative wind speed of the advancing blade increases, the blade gains lift and begins to flap up (figure 1-55). It reaches its maximum upflap velocity at the 3-o’clock position, where the wind velocity is the greatest. This upflap creates a downward flow of air and has the same effect as increasing the induced flow velocity by imposing a downward vertical velocity vector to the relative wind. This decreases the AOA. 1-123. 隨著前進葉片的相對風速增加,葉片獲得升力並開始向上拍動(圖 1-55)。在 3 點鐘位置,葉片達到其最大向上拍動速度,此時風速為最大。這種向上拍動產生了向下的氣流,並且具有通過對相對風施加向下的垂直速度向量來增加誘導流速的相同效果。這降低了攻角(AOA)。
1-124.As relative wind speed of the retreating blade decreases, the blade loses lift and begins to flap down (figure 1-56). It reaches its maximum downflap velocity at the 9 o’clock position, where wind velocity is the least. This downflap creates an upward flow of air and has the same effect as decreasing the induced flow velocity by imposing an upward velocity vertical vector to the relative wind. This increases AOA. 1-124. 隨著退行葉片的相對風速減少,葉片失去升力並開始向下拍動(圖 1-56)。它在 9 點鐘位置達到最大下拍速度,此時風速最低。這種下拍產生了向上的氣流,並對相對風施加一個向上的速度垂直向量,具有減少誘導流速的相同效果。這增加了攻角(AOA)。
1-125.Blade flapping over the nose and tail of the helicopter are essentially equal. The net result is an equalization, or symmetry, of lift across the rotor system. Up flapping and down flapping do not change the totalamountofliftproducedbytherotorblades.Whenbladeflappinghascompensatedfordissymmetryoflift, the rotor disk is tilted to the rear, called blowback. The maximum upflap occurring over the nose and the maximumdownflapoccurringoverthetailcauseblowback.Thiswouldcauseairspeedtodecrease.Theaviator uses cyclic feathering to compensate for dissymmetry of lift allowing the aviator to control the attitude of the rotor disk. 1-125. 直升機的葉片在機頭和機尾的擺動基本上是相等的。最終結果是提升力在旋翼系統中達到均衡或對稱。向上擺動和向下擺動不會改變旋翼葉片產生的總提升力。當葉片擺動已經補償了提升力的不對稱時,旋翼盤會向後傾斜,稱為回流。發生在機頭的最大向上擺動和發生在機尾的最大向下擺動會導致回流。這會導致空速減少。飛行員使用循環羽化來補償提升力的不對稱,使飛行員能夠控制旋翼盤的姿態。
CyclicFeathering 循環羽化
1-126.Cyclic feathering compensates for dissymmetry of lift (changes the AOA). At a hover, equal lift is produced around the rotor system with equal pitch and AOA on all the blades and at all points in the rotor system(disregardingcompensationfortranslatingtendency).Therotordiskisparalleltothehorizon.To 1-126. 循環羽毛補償升力的不對稱(改變攻角)。在懸停時,旋翼系統周圍產生相等的升力,所有葉片的桨距和攻角相等,並且在旋翼系統的所有點上相等(不考慮平移趨勢的補償)。旋翼盤與地平線平行。
develop a thrust force, the rotor system must be tilted in the desired direction of movement. Cyclic feathering changes the angle ofincidence differentiallyaround the rotor system. Forward cyclic movements decrease the angle of incidence at one part on the rotor system while increasing the angle in another part. Maximum down flapping of the blade over the nose and maximum up flapping over the tail tilt the rotor disk and thrust vector forward.Topreventblowbackfromoccurring,theaviatormustcontinuallymovethecyclicforwardasvelocity of the helicopter increases.

Figure1-57.Bladepitchangles 圖 1-57. 刀片角度
1-127.This horizontal lift component (thrust) generates higher helicopter airspeed. The higher airspeed induces blade flapping to maintain symmetry of lift. The combination of flapping and cyclic feathering maintains symmetry of lift and desired attitude on the rotor system and helicopter. 1-127. 這個水平升力元件(推力)產生更高的直升機空速。更高的空速引起葉片擺動以維持升力的對稱。擺動和循環調整的結合維持了升力的對稱和直升機旋翼系統及直升機的所需姿態。
1-128.In tandem-rotor helicopters, the aviator does not manually compensate for dissymmetry of lift when applyingforward cyclic. Automatic cyclic-featheringsystems are installed ontandem-rotor helicopters.These systemsareactivatedthroughcomputer-generatedcommandsatspecifiedairspeeds,usuallystartingaround70 knots. At low airspeeds, blade flapping compensates for dissymmetry of lift. As airspeed increases, these systems programallowing a more level fuselage attitude and reduce stresses on the rotor driving mechanisms. If the cyclic-feathering system fails to properly feather the rotor system at higher airspeeds, greater blade- flapping angles and nose-low flight attitudes occur and induce increased stresses on the rotor-driving mechanisms. 在串列旋翼直升機中,飛行員在施加前循環時不需要手動補償升力的不對稱性。自動循環羽化系統安裝在串列旋翼直升機上。這些系統通過計算機生成的命令在特定的空速下啟動,通常在約 70 節時開始。在低空速下,葉片擺動補償升力的不對稱性。隨著空速的增加,這些系統會編程以允許更平穩的機身姿態,並減少對旋翼驅動機構的壓力。如果循環羽化系統在較高空速下未能正確羽化旋翼系統,則會出現更大的葉片擺動角度和機頭向下的飛行姿態,並導致對旋翼驅動機構的壓力增加。
TRANSLATIONALLIFT 轉換升力

The efficiency of the hoveringrotorsystemisimprovedwitheachknotofincomingwindgainedbyhorizontalmovementorsurface wind.Astheincomingwindenterstherotorsystem,turbulenceandvortexesareleftbehindandtheflowofair becomes more horizontal. In addition, the tail rotor becomes more aerodynamically efficient during the transitionfromhovertoforwardflight.Asthetailrotorworksinprogressivelylessturbulentair,thisimproved efficiency produces more thrust, causing the nose of the aircraft to yaw left (with a main rotor turning counterclockwise) and forces the aviator to apply right pedal (decreasing the AOA in the tail rotor blades) in response. 1-129. 由於定向飛行而改善的轉子效率稱為平移升力。隨著每一節的水平移動或地面風所獲得的進風,懸停轉子系統的效率得以提升。當進風進入轉子系統時,湍流和渦流被留下,氣流變得更加水平。此外,尾轉子在從懸停過渡到前進飛行的過程中變得更加氣動效率。隨著尾轉子在逐漸減少的湍流空氣中運作,這種改善的效率產生了更多的推力,導致飛機的機頭向左偏航(主轉子逆時針旋轉),並迫使飛行員施加右踏板(減少尾轉子葉片的攻角)以作出反應。
1-130.Figure 1-58, page 1-41, shows the airflow pattern for 1 to 5 knots of forward airspeed. Note how the downwind vortexisbeginningtodissipateandinducedflowdownthroughtherearoftherotorsystemismore horizontal. 1-130。圖 1-58,頁 1-41,顯示了 1 到 5 節的前進空速的氣流模式。注意下風向渦流開始消散,並且通過旋翼系統後部的誘導流更加水平。
1-131.Figure 1-59 shows the airflow pattern at a speed of 10 to 15 knots. At this increased airspeed, the airflowcontinues to become more horizontal. The leading edge of the downwash pattern is being overrun and is well back under the nose of the helicopter. 1-131. 圖 1-59 顯示了風速為 10 到 15 節時的氣流模式。在這一增強的空氣速度下,氣流持續變得更加水平。下洗氣流模式的前緣被超越,並且位於直升機鼻部的後方。
1-132.In forward flight, air passing through the rear portion of the rotor disk has a greater downwash angle than air passing through the forward portion. This is due to the fact the greater the distance air flows over the rotordisk,thelongerthediskhastoworkonitandthegreaterthedeflectionontheaftportion.Downwardflow at the rear of the rotor diskcauses a reduced AOA, resultinginless lift. The front portion ofthe diskproduces an increased AOA and more lift because airflow is more horizontal. These differences in lift between the fore and aft portions of the rotor disk are called transverse flow effect (figure 1-60, page 1-42). This effect causes unequal drag in the fore and aft portions of the rotor disk and results in vibration easily recognizable by the aviator. It occurs between 10 and 20 knots. Transverse flow effect is most noticeable during takeoff and, to a lesser degree, during deceleration for landing. Gyroscopic precession causes the effects to be manifested 90 degrees in the direction of rotation, resulting in a right rolling motion. 1-132。在前進飛行中,通過旋翼盤後部的氣流下洗角度大於通過前部的氣流。這是因為氣流在旋翼盤上流動的距離越大,旋翼盤對其的作用時間越長,後部的偏轉也越大。旋翼盤後部的向下流動導致迎角減小,從而產生較少的升力。旋翼盤的前部因為氣流更為水平,產生較大的迎角和更多的升力。旋翼盤前後部分之間的升力差異稱為橫向流動效應(圖 1-60,第 1-42 頁)。這種效應導致旋翼盤前後部分的阻力不均,並產生飛行員易於識別的振動。它發生在 10 到 20 節之間。橫向流動效應在起飛時最為明顯,在減速降落時則程度較輕。陀螺進動使這些效應在旋轉方向上表現出 90 度,導致向右的滾轉運動。

AUTOROTATION 自動旋轉
1-135.In an emergency that results in an autorotation, the crew must work together as quicklyas possible to prevent rotor decaybeyond recoverable limits. The following section details the aerodynamics at work during an autorotational descent and landing. 1-135. 在導致自動旋轉的緊急情況下,機組人員必須儘快協同工作,以防止轉子衰退超過可恢復的極限。以下部分詳細說明自動旋轉下降和著陸過程中的空氣動力學。
AerodynamicsofVerticalAutorotation 垂直自轉的空氣動力學
1-136.During powered flight, rotor drag is overcome with engine power. When the engine fails or is deliberatelydisengagedfromtherotorsystem,someotherforcemustsustainrotorRPMsocontrolledflightcan be continued to the ground. Adjusting the collective pitch to allow a controlled descent generates this force. Airflow during helicopter descent provides energy to overcome blade drag and turn the rotor. When the helicopter descends in this manner, it is in a state of autorotation. In effect, the aviator exchanges altitude at a controlled rate in return for energyto turn the rotor at a RPM that provides aircraft control and a safe landing. Helicoptershavepotentialenergybasedontheiraltitudeabovetheground.Asthisaltitudedecreases,potential energy is converted into kinetic energy used in turning the rotor. Aviators use this kinetic energy to slow the rate of descent to a controlled rate and affect a smooth touchdown. 1-136. 在動力飛行期間,旋翼阻力是由引擎功率克服的。當引擎失效或故意與旋翼系統脫離時,必須有其他力量來維持旋翼轉速,以便能夠控制飛行降落。調整集體桨距以允許受控下降會產生這種力量。直升機下降過程中的氣流提供能量以克服葉片阻力並轉動旋翼。當直升機以這種方式下降時,它處於自轉狀態。實際上,飛行員以受控的速率交換高度,以換取能量來以提供飛機控制和安全著陸的轉速轉動旋翼。直升機的潛在能量基於其距地面的高度。隨著這一高度的降低,潛在能量轉化為用於轉動旋翼的動能。飛行員利用這種動能來減慢下降速率至受控速率,並實現平穩著陸。
1-137.Most autorotations are performed with forward airspeed. For simplicity, the following aerodynamic explanationisbasedonaverticalautorotativedescent(noforwardairspeed)instillair.Undertheseconditions, forcesthatcausethebladestoturnaresimilarforallblades,regardlessoftheirpositionintheplaneofrotation. Therefore, dissymmetry of lift resulting from helicopter airspeed is not a factor. During autorotation, the rotor disk is divided into three regions—driven, driving, and stall (figure 1-62). 1-137. 大多數自轉降落是以前進空速進行的。為了簡化,以下的空氣動力學解釋基於靜止空氣中的垂直自轉下降(無前進空速)。在這些條件下,導致葉片轉動的力量對所有葉片都是相似的,無論它們在旋轉平面中的位置如何。因此,來自直升機空速的升力不對稱並不是一個因素。在自轉過程中,旋翼盤被劃分為三個區域——驅動區、驅動中區和失速區(圖 1-62)。
1-138.This region is also called the propeller region and nearest the blade tip. It normally consists of nearly 30percentofthediskradius.Inthedrivenregion,theTAFactsabovethebladeandbehindtheaxisofrotation.

DrivingRegion 駕駛區域
1-139.This regionextends fromabout the 25 to70percent radius ofthe blade. Itlies betweenthe drivenand stall regions. It can also be identified as the area of autorotative force because it is the region of the blade that producestheforcenecessarytoturnthebladesduringautorotation.TAFinthedrivingregionisinclinedslightly forward of the axis of rotation and produces a continual acceleration force. This direction of force supplies thrust, which tends to accelerate the rotation of the blade. The size of the region varies with the blade pitch setting, rate ofdescent, and rotor RPM. Anychange of these factors also changes the size ofthe regions along the blade span. 1-139. 此區域從約 25%到 70%刀片半徑延伸。它位於驅動區和失速區之間。它也可以被識別為自旋力區域,因為它是刀片產生在自旋過程中轉動刀片所需力量的區域。驅動區的 TAF 略微向前傾斜於旋轉軸,並產生持續的加速力量。這種力量的方向提供推進,傾向於加速刀片的旋轉。該區域的大小隨著刀片俯仰設定、下降速率和轉子 RPM 而變化。這些因素的任何變化也會改變刀片跨度沿線的區域大小。
StallRegion 停滯區域
1-140.This region includes the inboard 25 percent of the blade radius. It operates above the stall AOA and causes drag, which tends to slow the rotation of the blade. 1-140。此區域包括葉片半徑的內部 25%。它在失速攻角以上運行,並產生阻力,這會減慢葉片的旋轉。
BladeRegionRelationships 刀片區域關係
1-141.Figure 1-63, page 1-45, illustrates the three regions. Additional information in the figure pertains to force vectors on those regions and two additional equilibrium points. This figure serves to locate those regions/points on the blade span and depict the interplay of force vectors. Force vectors are different in each regionbecauserotationalrelativewindisslowernearthebladerootandincreasescontinuallytowardtheblade tip. In addition, blade twist gives a more positive AOA in the driving region than in the driven region. The combination of inflow up through the rotor with rotational relative wind produces different combinations of aerodynamic force at every point along the blade. 1-141. 圖 1-63,頁 1-45,說明了三個區域。圖中的附加信息涉及這些區域的力向量和兩個額外的平衡點。此圖用於定位葉片跨度上的這些區域/點並描繪力向量的相互作用。由於旋轉相對風在葉片根部較慢,並且向葉片尖端不斷增加,因此每個區域的力向量不同。此外,葉片扭轉使驅動區的攻角比驅動區更為正向。通過轉子進入的氣流與旋轉相對風的結合,在葉片的每一點產生不同的氣動力組合。

At this point, TAF is aligned with the axis of rotation.

1-145.Autorotations maybe divided into three distinctphases—entry, steady-state descent, and deceleration and touchdown. Each phase is aerodynamically different from the others. 1-145. 自動旋轉可分為三個明確的階段—進入、穩定下降和減速著陸。每個階段在空氣動力學上與其他階段有所不同。
Entry 條目
1-146.This phase is entered after loss of engine power. The loss of engine power and rotor RPM is more pronounced when the helicopter is at high gross weight, high forward speed, or in high-density altitude conditions. Any of these conditions demand increased power (high collective position) and a more abrupt reactiontolossofthatpower.

Level-PoweredFlightatHighSpeed 平穩高速飛行
1-147.Figure1-65showstheairflowandforcevectorsforabladeinthisconfiguration.Liftanddragvectors are large, and the TAF is inclined well to the rear of the axis of rotation. An engine failure in this mode will causerapidrotorRPMdecay. Topreventthis,anaviator mustlowerthe collectivequickly,reducingdrag,and inclining the TAF vector forward, nearer the axis of rotation. 1-147. 圖 1-65 顯示了在此配置下葉片的氣流和力向量。升力和阻力向量較大,TAF 相對於旋轉軸的傾斜角度較大。在此模式下發生引擎故障將導致轉子 RPM 快速衰減。為了防止這種情況,飛行員必須迅速降低集體油門,減少阻力,並將 TAF 向量向前傾斜,靠近旋轉軸。
1-148.Figure 1-66, page 1-47, shows airflowand force vectors for a blade immediatelyafter power loss and subsequent collective reduction, yet before the aircraft has begun to descend. Lift and drag are reduced, with the TAF vector inclined further forward than it is in powered flight. As the helicopter begins to descend, the 1-148。圖 1-66,頁 1-47,顯示了在失去動力和隨後的集體減少後,葉片的氣流和力向量,但在飛機開始下降之前。升力和阻力減少,TAF 向量比在有動力飛行時更向前傾斜。隨著直升機開始下降,
airflowbeginstoflowupwardandundertherotorsystem.ThiscausestheTAFtoincline further forward until it reaches an equilibrium that maintains a safe operating RPM. 氣流開始向上流動並進入轉子系統。這使得 TAF 進一步向前傾斜,直到達到一個維持安全運行 RPM 的平衡。
1-149.Figure1-67showsairflowandforcevectorsforabladeinsteady-stateautorotativedescent.Airflowis now upward through the rotor disk because of the descent. This inflow of air creates a larger AOA although blade pitch angle has not changed since the descent began. TAF on the blade is increased and inclined further forward until equilibrium is established, rate of descent and rotor RPM are stabilized, and the helicopter is descending at a constant angle. Angle of descent is normally 17 to 20 degrees, depending on airspeed, density altitude, wind, and type of helicopter. 1-149. 圖 1-67 顯示了在穩態自轉下降中,葉片的氣流和力向量。由於下降,氣流現在是向上通過轉子盤。這股氣流的進入產生了更大的攻角,儘管自下降開始以來,葉片的俯仰角並未改變。葉片上的總攻角(TAF)增加並進一步向前傾斜,直到達到平衡,下降速率和轉子轉速穩定,直升機以恆定角度下降。下降角通常為 17 到 20 度,具體取決於空速、密度高度、風速和直升機類型。
1-150.Figure 1-68, page 1-48, shows airflow and force vectors for a blade in autorotative deceleration.

Airspeeds for minimum rate of descent and maximum glide distance vary by helicopter type and can be found in individual operator manuals (figure 1-69, page 1-49). 1-151. 直升機的空速和阻力是影響自轉下降率的重要因素。在非常低的空速下,下降率很高,隨著空速增加在某個中間速度時下降率降至最低,然後在更快的速度下再次增加。最低下降率和最大滑行距離的空速因直升機類型而異,具體數據可在各個操作手冊中找到(圖 1-69,第 1-49 頁)。

1-153.Itcanbe assumed autorotation endsat50 to 100 feetand landingproceduresthenbegin. To execute a power-off landing for rotary-wing aircraft, an aviator exchanges airspeed for lift by decelerating the aircraft during the last 100 feet. When executed correctly, deceleration is applied and timed so rate of descent and forward airspeed are minimized just before touchdown. At about 10 to 15 feet, this energy exchange is essentially complete. Initial pitch application occurs at 10 to 15 feet. This is used to trade some of the rotor energy to slow the rate of descent prior to cushioning. The primary remaining control input is application of collectivepitchtocushiontouchdown.Becauseallhelicoptertypesareslightlydifferent,aviatorexperiencein thatparticularaircraftisthemostusefultoolforpredictingusefulenergyexchangeavailableat100feetandthe appropriate amount of deceleration and collective pitch needed to execute the exchange safely and land successfully. 1-153. 可以假設自動旋轉在 50 到 100 英尺時結束,然後開始著陸程序。為了執行旋翼機的無動力著陸,飛行員在最後 100 英尺內通過減速來交換空速以獲取升力。當正確執行時,減速的應用和時機安排使得下降率和前進空速在觸地前達到最小化。在約 10 到 15 英尺時,這種能量交換基本完成。初始的俯仰應用發生在 10 到 15 英尺時。這用於在緩衝之前交易一些旋翼能量以減慢下降率。主要剩餘的控制輸入是應用集體俯仰以緩衝著陸。由於所有直升機類型略有不同,飛行員在特定飛機上的經驗是預測在 100 英尺時可用的有效能量交換以及執行安全交換和成功著陸所需的適當減速和集體俯仰的最有用工具。
1-154.During maneuvering flight, a considerable amount of information is processed. Aircrews must be familiar with power margins, possible maneuvers to be performed, and escape plans. Mission rehearsals and continuous crew coordination allows the aircrew to anticipate maneuvers and decrease reaction time for unplanned events. 1-154. 在機動飛行期間,處理了大量信息。機組人員必須熟悉功率邊際、可能執行的機動以及逃生計劃。任務排練和持續的機組協調使機組人員能夠預測機動並減少對突發事件的反應時間。

The most critical is lower speed since at higher speeds airspeed energy may be traded to maintain altitude while maneuvering. When below minimum bucket speed reduce bank angle. Otherwise, altitude loss may become unavoidable. 1-158. 桶速是提供最佳動力邊際以進行機動飛行的空速範圍。使用當前條件的巡航圖,從最大扭矩的 50%進入,達到總重量,然後轉到與飛機總重量相交的最低和最高空速,並注意在這些速度之間的機動飛行最佳動力邊際。最關鍵的是較低的速度,因為在較高的速度下,空速能量可以用來在機動時維持高度。當低於最低桶速時,減少傾斜角度。否則,高度損失可能變得不可避免。
TransientTorque 瞬態扭矩
1-159.Transient torque is a phenomenon occurring in single-rotor helicopters when lateral cyclic is applied and is caused by aerodynamic forces. For conventional American helicopters where the main rotor turns counterclockwise, (figure 1-70) a left cyclic input causes a temporary rise in torque and a right cyclic input causes a temporary drop in torque. 1-159. 瞬時扭矩是單旋翼直升機在施加側向循環時發生的現象,並由氣動力作用引起。對於主旋翼逆時針旋轉的傳統美國直升機(圖 1-70),左側循環輸入會導致扭矩暫時上升,而右側循環輸入則會導致扭矩暫時下降。
1-160.At the rear half of the rotor disk, downwash is greater than seen at the forward half of the rotor disk. This effect is more pronounced for heavier aircraft which exhibit greater coning due to their weight, causing even greater downwash at the rear of the rotor disk. If a left cyclic input is made by the pilot, the following events occur leading to a temporary increase in torque: 1-160. 在旋翼盤的後半部,向下氣流比在旋翼盤的前半部更強。這種效應在較重的飛機上更為明顯,因為它們因重量而顯示出更大的圓錐形,導致旋翼盤後部的向下氣流更強。如果飛行員施加左側循環輸入,則會發生以下事件,導致扭矩的暫時增加:
With increased lift on the rotor blades passing over the tail, there is also increased drag (induced drag). 隨著旋翼葉片在尾部上方產生的升力增加,阻力(誘導阻力)也隨之增加。
The increased rotor drag due to the left turn will initially try to slow the rotor, but is sensed by the applicable engine computer. The engine responds by delivering more torque to the rotor system to maintain rotor speed. 由於左轉而增加的轉子阻力最初會試圖減慢轉子,但會被相關的引擎電腦感知。引擎通過向轉子系統提供更多扭矩來響應,以維持轉子速度。
1-161.Theoppositeholdstrueforrightcyclicturns,butislesspronounced.Unlikethelefthandturn,inright turns blade pitch is being changed at the front of the rotor disk where induced downwash is lower, so the drag penalty is lower. Transient torque is not as prevalent at slower airspeeds because the induced downwash distribution is nearly uniform across the rotor disk. 1-161. 右旋轉的情況則相反,但不那麼明顯。與左轉不同,在右轉時,葉片的俯仰角在旋翼盤的前方進行變更,此處的誘導下洗較低,因此阻力懲罰較低。在較慢的空速下,瞬態扭矩不那麼明顯,因為誘導下洗的分佈在旋翼盤上幾乎是均勻的。
Torque transients are proportional with the amount of power applied. The higher the torque setting when lateral cyclic inputs are made, the higher or lower the transient. 扭矩瞬態與施加的功率量成正比。當進行橫向循環輸入時,扭矩設置越高,瞬態就越高或越低。
Magnitude of cyclic displacement directly affects the torque transient. An example of worst-case scenario occurs when a pilot initiates a rapid right roll, then due to an unexpected event breaks left. Thetransitionfromrightcyclicappliedtoleftcyclicappliedresultsinalargeamountofpitchchange in the advancing blade, resulting in large torque transients. 循環位移的大小直接影響扭矩瞬態。最壞情況的例子發生在飛行員快速向右翻滾後,因意外事件向左打破。從施加右循環到施加左循環的過渡導致前進葉片的俯仰變化量大,從而產生大的扭矩瞬態。
Drag is increased or decreased by the factor of velocity squared. Thus, the higher the forward airspeed, the higher the torque transient results. 阻力隨速度平方的因子增加或減少。因此,前進空速越高,扭矩瞬態結果越高。

1-164.Asagoodbasictechnique,imagineapieceofstringtiedbetweenthecyclicandcollective(rightcyclic- collective increase/left cyclic-collective decrease). Also, inputs must be made to keep the aircraft from descending due to torque reductions (when recovering from left cyclic inputs with collective reduced). 1-164. 作為一項良好的基本技術,想像一根繩子綁在循環桿和集體桿之間(右循環-集體增加/左循環-集體減少)。此外,必須進行輸入以防止因扭矩減少而使飛機下降(當從左循環輸入恢復時,集體桿減少)。
Note. 701C/D/DD/E equipped helicopters employ maximum torque rate attenuator which attempts to prevent transient torque related over-torques but may produce a rotor droop and loss of roll rate. Oncethepilothasgainedconfidenceintheabilityofthemaximumtorquerateattenuatortoprevent over-torquesresultingfromtransienttorque,aviatorscanaggressivelymaneuvertheaircraftwithout closely monitoring engine torque. 注意。701C/D/DD/E 裝備的直升機使用最大扭矩速率減震器,該裝置旨在防止與瞬時扭矩相關的過扭矩,但可能會導致旋翼下垂和滾轉速率損失。一旦飛行員對最大扭矩速率減震器防止由瞬時扭矩引起的過扭矩的能力建立了信心,飛行員可以在不密切監控引擎扭矩的情況下積極操控飛機。
Mushing 拉雪橇

While this is a temporarycondition (because in due time the upflow will dissipate and the stall will abate), the situation may become critical during low altitude recoveries or when maneuvering engagements require precise, tight turning radii. High aircraft gross weight and high density altitude are conditions conducive to and can aggravate mushing. 1-165. 冒險是一種在直升機中發生的暫時失速狀態,當在高前速下快速施加後循環時會出現。通常與俯衝恢復相關,這會導致顯著的高度損失,這一現象也可能在急轉彎中發生,導致轉彎半徑增加。當在高前速下突然施加後循環時,冒險會在高 G 操作中發生。這會導致旋翼系統的氣流模式發生變化,並因旋翼盤的圓錐效應而減少總升力面積。取而代之的是,氣流向上流動,這導致整個旋翼系統的部分區域出現失速狀態。雖然這是一種暫時狀態(因為隨著時間的推移,上升氣流會消散,失速會減輕),但在低高度恢復或當機動操作需要精確、緊湊的轉彎半徑時,情況可能變得危急。高飛機總重和高密度高度是有利於並可能加劇冒險的條件。
1-166.Mushing can be recognized bythe aircraft failing to respond immediately but continuing on the same flight path as before the application of aft cyclic. Slight feedback and mushiness may be felt in the controls. Whenmushingoccurs,thetendencyistopullmoreaftcyclicwhichprolongsstallandincreasesrecoverytimes. Make a forward cyclic adjustment to recover from the mushing condition. This reduces the induced flow, improves the resultant AOA, and reduces rotor disc coning which increases the total lift area of the disc.

is moved forward. To avoid mushing, the pilot must use smooth and progressive application of the aft cyclic during high G-maneuvers such as dive recoveries and tight turns. 向前移動。為了避免模糊,飛行員必須在高 G 機動(如俯衝恢復和急轉彎)期間平滑且逐步地應用後方循環。
ConservationofAngularMomentum 角動量守恆
1-167.The law of conservation of angular momentum states the value of angular momentum of a rotating body will not change unless external torques are applied. In other words, a rotating body continues to rotate with the same rotational velocity until some external force is applied to change the speed of rotation. Angular momentum can be expressed as follows: 1-167. 角動量守恆定律指出,旋轉物體的角動量值不會改變,除非施加外部扭矩。換句話說,旋轉物體會以相同的旋轉速度繼續旋轉,直到施加某種外力來改變旋轉速度。角動量可以表示如下:
1-168.Changesinangularvelocity,knownasangularaccelerationordeceleration,takeplaceifthe massofa rotating body is moved closer to or further from the axis of rotation. The speed of the rotating mass increases or decreases in proportion to the square of the radius. 1-168. 角速度的變化,稱為角加速度或減速度,發生在旋轉物體的質量移動到離旋轉軸更近或更遠的地方時。旋轉質量的速度隨著半徑的平方成比例地增加或減少。
1-169.Anexcellentexampleforthisprincipleiswhenwatchingafigureskateroniceskates.Theskaterbegins arotationononefoot, withtheotherlegandbotharmsextended.Therotationoftheskater’sbodyisrelatively slow. When a skater draws both arms and one leg inward, the moment of inertia (mass times radius squared) becomes much smaller and the body is rotating almost faster than the eye can follow. Because the angular momentum must, by law of nature, remain the same (no external force applied), the angular velocity must increase. 1-169. 這一原則的優秀範例是觀察一位花式滑冰選手在冰上滑行。滑冰者在一隻腳上開始旋轉,另一條腿和雙臂伸展。滑冰者的身體旋轉相對較慢。當滑冰者將雙臂和一條腿向內收回時,慣性矩(質量乘以半徑平方)變得小得多,身體的旋轉幾乎快到眼睛無法跟上。因為根據自然法則,角動量必須保持不變(沒有外力作用),所以角速度必須增加。
1-170.Themathematician,Coriolis,wasconcerned with forcesgeneratedbysuchradial movementsofmass onarotatingdiscorplane.Theseforcescauseaccelerationanddeceleration.Itmaybestatedasamassmoving radically— 1-170. 數學家科里奧利關注於在旋轉圓盤或平面上由質量的徑向運動產生的力量。這些力量會導致加速和減速。可以表述為一個質量以徑向運動—
1-171.The major rotating elements in the system are the rotor blades. As the rotor begins to cone due to G- loading maneuvers, the diameter of the disc shrinks. Due to conservation of angular momentum, the blades continue to travel the same speed even though the blade tips have a shorter distance to travel due to reduced discdiameter.ThisactionresultsinanincreaseinrotorRPMs.Mostpilotsarrestthisincrease withanincrease in collective pitch. 1-171. 系統中的主要旋轉元件是轉子葉片。隨著轉子因 G 載荷操作而開始圓錐化,圓盤的直徑縮小。由於角動量守恆,葉片即使因圓盤直徑減小而行程縮短,仍然以相同的速度運行。這一行為導致轉子轉速的增加。大多數飛行員通過增加總揚力來抑制這一增長。
1-172.Conversely, as G-loading subsides and the rotor disc flattens out from the loss of G-load induced coning,thebladetipsnowhavealongerdistancetotravelatthesametipspeed.Thisactionresultsinareduction of rotor RPMs. However, if this droop in rotor continues to the point it attempts to decrease below normal operating RPM, the engine control system adds more fuel/power to maintain the specified engine RPM. If the pilot does not reduce collective pitchas the disc unloads, the combinationofthe engines compensating for the RPM slow down and the additional pitch added as G-loading increased may result in exceeding the torque limitations or power the engines can produce. This problem is exacerbated by effects of the TAF encountered during maneuvering flight. 1-172. 相反,隨著 G 載荷的減少和轉子盤因 G 載荷引起的圓錐形變而變平,葉片尖端在相同的尖端速度下現在需要移動更長的距離。這一行為導致轉子轉速的降低。然而,如果這種轉子下滑持續到試圖降低到正常操作轉速以下,發動機控制系統會增加更多的燃料/功率以維持指定的發動機轉速。如果飛行員在轉子盤卸載時不減少集體桨距,發動機為了補償轉速減慢而增加的功率與隨著 G 載荷增加而增加的額外桨距的組合,可能會導致超過發動機能夠產生的扭矩限制或功率。這一問題在機動飛行中受到遇到的 TAF 影響而加劇。
HighBankAngleTurns 高銀行角轉彎
1-173.As the angle of bank increases, the amount of lift opposite the vertical weight decreases (figure 1-71, page 1-53). If adequate excess engine power is available, increasing collective pitch enables continued flight while maintaining airspeed and altitude. If sufficient excess power is not available, the result is altitude loss unless airspeed is traded (aft cyclic) to maintain altitude or altitude is traded to maintain airspeed. 1-173. 隨著傾斜角度的增加,垂直重量對面的升力減少(圖 1-71,頁 1-53)。如果有足夠的多餘引擎功率,增加集體桨距可以在保持空速和高度的同時繼續飛行。如果沒有足夠的多餘功率,則會導致高度損失,除非通過降低空速(後循環)來維持高度,或是通過降低高度來維持空速。
Figure1-71.Lifttoweight 圖 1-71. 提升與重量
1-174.At some point (airspeed/angle of bank) sufficient excess power is not available and the aviator must applyaft cyclic to maintain altitude (table 1-3).

1-176.Aviatorsmustbefamiliarwiththischaracteristic,anticipatecyclicinputresults,andapplyappropriate control inputs to conduct combat maneuvers successfully. Aviators unfamiliar with this characteristic may be surprisedattherapidbuildofsinkrateswhenturningtheaircrafttobankanglesapproaching60degrees.When flying heavy aircraft in a high hot environment, sufficient time and altitude may not be available to arrest the resultant descent. 1-176. 飛行員必須熟悉這一特性,預測循環輸入的結果,並施加適當的控制輸入以成功執行戰鬥機動。對這一特性不熟悉的飛行員在將飛機轉向接近 60 度的傾斜角時,可能會對快速增加的下沉率感到驚訝。在高溫環境中駕駛重型飛機時,可能沒有足夠的時間和高度來阻止隨之而來的下降。
1-177.The cyclic inputs and associated rotor disc pitch changes required to accomplish successful combat maneuvers have a substantial effect on TAF. Large aft cyclic inputs increase inflow through the rotor system. Since lift is perpendicular to resultant relative wind, the TAF of each rotor blade may move to a point aligned withorforwardoftheaxisofrotation(muchlikethedrivinganddrivenregionofabladeduringautorotational flight). While the engine control system reduces fuel flow to reduced load, the rotor system may still climb to transient ranges or attempt to overspeed. 1-177. 為了成功執行戰鬥機動,所需的循環輸入和相關的轉子盤傾斜變化對 TAF 有著顯著影響。大型後方循環輸入增加了通過轉子系統的進氣量。由於升力垂直於結果相對風,每個轉子葉片的 TAF 可能會移動到與旋轉軸對齊或位於其前方的點(就像在自轉飛行中葉片的驅動區和被驅動區)。當引擎控制系統減少燃料流量以降低負載時,轉子系統仍可能爬升到瞬態範圍或嘗試超速。

(圖 1-72)。引擎控制系統感知到這一點,並增加引擎的燃料流量以維持轉子轉速,導致扭矩增加。一般來說,當以高於桶速的空速行駛時,後循環會導致扭矩減少和轉子轉速增加。從後循環輸入(推壓或高 G 轉彎恢復)中恢復時,扭矩會增加,因為引擎補償轉子系統的減速。在激烈的機動中,如果未適當調整集體輸入以保持扭矩和轉子一致,這可能會導致過扭矩或過轉速。
Figure1-72.Aftcyclicresults 圖 1-72. 後循環結果
1-179.This phenomenon is exacerbated by high gross weight and also affected by ambient temperature and density altitude. Typically, cold dry air results in more rapid rotor RPM increase during aft cyclic input and a correspondinghighertorqueincreasewithaforwardcyclicinput.Hottemperaturesandhigherdensityaltitudes result in more collective input required to arrest a climbing rotor. 1-179. 這一現象因高總重量而加劇,並受到環境溫度和密度高度的影響。通常,冷乾空氣會導致在後向循環輸入時轉子轉速(RPM)更快速地增加,而在前向循環輸入時則會相應地增加更高的扭矩。高溫和較高的密度高度會導致需要更多的集體輸入來停止上升的轉子。

During G-load recovery, torque increases as the engine control systems work to maintain a rotor RPM attempting to decrease. Aviators must be able to apply appropriate and timely collective inputs to maintain consistent torque and keep rotor RPM within limits. 1-180. 角動量和 TAF 在循環變距變化期間結合。在後循環或 G 載荷期間,轉子增加而扭矩下降。在 G 載荷恢復期間,隨著引擎控制系統努力維持試圖降低的轉子 RPM,扭矩增加。飛行員必須能夠適時地施加適當的總控輸入,以維持穩定的扭矩並將轉子 RPM 保持在限制範圍內。
Dig-In 深入探索
1-181.Dig-inisapplyingaftcyclictosuchapointthatcausesthemainrotordiskthrustvectortoalmost parallel the flight path of the helicopter. While making large aft cyclic movements, the pilot must be aware of the helicopter’s tendency to rapidly and unpredictably build G-forces. As the cyclic is moved aft, the rotor disk responds by tilting aft, which tilts the thrust vector aft and ultimatelycauses the aircraft to pitch nose-up. Thisrapidpitch-upalsoincreasesthelengthoftheaircraftthrustvector, whichincreasesthepitch-uprate.The rapid onset of the pitch-up motion due to this tilting and then lengthening of the thrust vector, is considered destabilizing and countered by the helicopter’s horizontal tail or stabilizer which tries to drive the nose back down.Forlargepitch-uprates,thetendencyofthemainrotortocontinuepitching-upoverpowersthehorizontal tail/stabilizerandtheaircraftdigs-inandslowdownrapidly.Dig-incouldbeaccompaniedbyairframevibration and sometimes control feedback. Vibration and control feedback is normally canceled out by modern aircraft systems. 1-181. 鑽入是將後循環操縱杆應用到一個點,使主旋翼盤的推力向量幾乎與直升機的飛行路徑平行。在進行大幅度後循環操縱時,飛行員必須意識到直升機迅速且不可預測地產生 G 力的傾向。當循環操縱杆向後移動時,旋翼盤會向後傾斜,這會使推力向量向後傾斜,最終導致飛機的機頭向上仰起。這種快速的仰頭也增加了飛機推力向量的長度,從而提高了仰頭速率。由於這種傾斜和隨後推力向量的延長而導致的仰頭運動的快速出現,被認為是破壞穩定的,並受到直升機的水平尾翼或穩定器的抵消,後者試圖將機頭壓回向下。對於大仰頭速率,主旋翼繼續仰頭的傾向壓倒了水平尾翼/穩定器,飛機會鑽入並迅速減速。鑽入可能伴隨著機身振動,有時還會有控制反饋。現代飛機系統通常會消除振動和控制反饋。

Never move the cyclic faster than trim, torque, and rotor can be maintained. When entering a maneuver and the trim, rotor, or torque reacts quicker than anticipated, pilot limitations have been exceeded. If continued, the aircraft limitation is exceeded. The maneuver is performed with less intensity until all aspects of the machine can be controlled. 永遠不要讓循環的速度超過修整、扭矩和旋翼所能維持的速度。當進入一個機動時,如果修整、旋翼或扭矩的反應比預期更快,則超出了飛行員的限制。如果繼續這樣做,則超出了飛機的限制。該機動應以較低的強度進行,直到所有機器的各個方面都能被控制。
Changes are anticipated in aircraft performance due to loading or environmental condition. The normal collective increase to check rotor speed at sea level standard may not be sufficient at 4,000 feet pressure altitude (PA) and 95 degrees F (4K95). 由於載荷或環境條件,預期飛機性能會發生變化。在海平面標準下檢查轉子速度的正常集體增加,在 4,000 英尺壓力高度(PA)和 95 華氏度(4K95)時可能不足。

Application of forward cyclic (especially when immediately following aft cyclic application), torque increases and rotor speed decreases. 前向循環的應用(特別是在隨後立即施加後向循環時),扭矩增加而轉子速度減少。

Failure to anticipate this at low altitude endangers the crew and passengers. The rate of pitch change is proportional to gross weight and density altitude. 在急轉彎時,機頭會下沉。在大多數情況下,必須以能量(空速)來交換以維持高度,因為所需的多餘引擎功率可能無法提供(在 2G/60 度轉彎中,旋翼推力/引擎功率必須增加 100%)。未能在低高度預見這一點會危及機組人員和乘客的安全。俯仰變化率與總重量和密度高度成正比。
Many maneuvering flight over-torques occur as the aircraft unloads Gs. This is due to insufficient collective reduction following the increase to maintain consistent torque and rotor as G-loading increased (dive recovery or recovery from high G-turn to the right). 許多操控飛行過度扭矩的情況發生在飛機減少 G 力時。這是因為在 G 負荷增加(俯衝恢復或從高 G 向右轉的恢復)後,未能充分減少集體桨距以維持一致的扭矩和旋翼。

It can also be interpreted as PA corrected for nonstandard temperature differences. 1-185. 隨著空氣密度的增加,發動機功率輸出、轉子效率和空氣動力學升力也隨之增加。密度高度是指在標準大氣中,特定大氣密度出現的平均海平面(MSL)之上高度。它也可以解釋為針對非標準溫度差進行修正的 PA。
1-186.PA is displayed as the height above a standard datum plane, which in this case, is a theoretical plane where air pressure is equal to 29.92 inches mercury (Hg). PA is the indicated height value when the altimeter setting is adjusted to 29.92 inches Hg. PA, as opposed to true altitude, is an important value for calculating performance as it more accurately represents the air content at a particular level. The difference between true altitudeandPAmustbeclearlyunderstood.TruealtitudemeanstheverticalheightaboveMSLandisdisplayed on the altimeter when the altimeter is correctly adjusted to the local setting. 1-186. PA 顯示為高於標準基準平面的高度,在這種情況下,這是一個理論平面,空氣壓力等於 29.92 英寸汞柱 (Hg)。當高度計的設定調整為 29.92 英寸 Hg 時,PA 是指示的高度值。PA 與真實高度相對,是計算性能的重要值,因為它更準確地代表特定高度的空氣含量。必須清楚理解真實高度與 PA 之間的差異。真實高度是指高於海平面的垂直高度,當高度計正確調整為當地設定時,會在高度計上顯示。
1-187.For example, if the local altimeter setting is 30.12 inches Hg and adjusted to this value, it indicates exact height above sea level. However, this does not reflect conditions found at this height under standard conditions.Sincethealtimetersettingismorethan29.92inchesHg,theairinthisexamplehasahigherpressure and is more compressed, indicative of air found at a lower altitude. Therefore, the PA is lower than the actual heightaboveMSL.TocalculatePAwithoutuseofanaltimeter,rememberpressuredecreasesapproximately1 inchofmercuryforevery1,000-footincreaseinaltitude.For example,ifthecurrentlocalaltimetersettingata 4,000footelevationis30.42,thePAwouldbe3,500feet(30.42–29.92=.50inchesHg/.50x1,000feet=500 1-187. 例如,如果當地的高度計設定為 30.12 英寸汞柱並調整至此值,則表示海平面以上的確切高度。然而,這並不反映在標準條件下此高度的實際情況。由於高度計設定超過 29.92 英寸汞柱,這個例子中的空氣壓力較高且更為壓縮,顯示出在較低高度的空氣。因此,絕對氣壓(PA)低於海平面以上的實際高度。要在不使用高度計的情況下計算 PA,請記住,壓力每增加 1,000 英尺高度約下降 1 英寸汞柱。例如,如果當前在 4,000 英尺高度的當地高度計設定為 30.42,則 PA 將為 3,500 英尺(30.42 – 29.92 = .50 英寸汞柱/.50 x 1,000 英尺 = 500)。
feet; subtracting 500 feet from 4,000 equals 3,500 feet.). Four factors affecting density altitude most are atmospheric pressure, altitude, temperature, and moisture content of the air. 英尺;從 4,000 英尺中減去 500 英尺等於 3,500 英尺。影響密度高度的四個主要因素是大氣壓力、高度、溫度和空氣的濕度含量。
AtmosphericPressure 大氣壓力
1-188.Duetochangingweatherconditions,atmosphericpressureatagivenlocationchangesfromdaytoday. If the pressure is lower, the air is less dense. This means a higher density altitude and less helicopter performance. 1-188. 由於天氣條件變化,特定位置的氣壓每天都會變化。如果氣壓較低,空氣的密度就較小。這意味著較高的密度高度和較差的直升機性能。
Altitude 高度
1-189.As altitude increases, air becomes thinner. This is because the atmospheric pressure acting on a given volume of air is less, allowing air molecules to move further apart. Dense air contains air molecules spaced closelytogether,whilethinaircontainsairmoleculesspacedfurtherapart.Asaltitudeincreases,densityaltitude increases. 1-189. 隨著高度的增加,空氣變得稀薄。這是因為作用於特定空氣體積的氣壓較低,使得空氣分子能夠更遠地分開。密集的空氣包含緊密排列的空氣分子,而稀薄的空氣則包含較遠排列的空氣分子。隨著高度的增加,密度高度也隨之增加。
Temperature 溫度
1-190.As warm air expands the air molecules move further apart, creating less dense air. Since cool air contracts,airmoleculesmoveclosertogethercreatingdenserair.Hightemperaturescauseevenlowelevations to have high density altitudes. 1-190. 當暖空氣膨脹時,空氣分子之間的距離變得更遠,形成較低密度的空氣。由於冷空氣收縮,空氣分子之間的距離變得更近,形成較高密度的空氣。高溫使得即使在低海拔地區也會有高密度的高度。
Moisture(Humidity) 濕度 (濕氣)
1-191.Thewatercontentofairalsochangesairdensityaswatervaporweighslessthandryair.Therefore,as the water content of the air increases, air becomes less dense, increasing density altitude and decreasing performance. 1-191. 空氣的水分含量也會改變空氣密度,因為水蒸氣的重量低於乾燥空氣。因此,隨著空氣水分含量的增加,空氣變得不那麼密集,導致密度高度增加和性能下降。
1-192.Humidity, also called relative humidity, refers to the amount of water vapor contained in the atmosphereandisexpressedasapercentageofthemaximumamountofwatervaporaircanhold.Thisamount varies withtemperature; warmaircanhold more watervapor, whilecolderair holdsless. Perfectlydryairthat containsnowatervaporhasarelativehumidityof0percent,whilesaturatedairthatcannotholdanymorewater vapor has a relative humidity of 100 percent. 1-192. 濕度,也稱為相對濕度,指的是大氣中所含水蒸氣的量,並以空氣能夠容納的最大水蒸氣量的百分比表示。這個數量隨著溫度而變化;暖空氣能夠容納更多的水蒸氣,而冷空氣則能容納較少的水蒸氣。完全乾燥的空氣不含水蒸氣,其相對濕度為 0 百分比,而飽和空氣無法再容納更多水蒸氣,其相對濕度為 100 百分比。
1-193.Humidity alone is usually not considered an important factor in calculating density altitude and helicopterperformance however,itdoescontribute.Therearenorules-of-thumborcharts usedtocomputethe effectsofhumidityondensityaltitude. Aviatorsshouldexpectadecreaseinhoveringandtakeoffperformance in high humidity conditions. 1-193. 濕度通常不被視為計算密度高度和直升機性能的重要因素,然而,它確實有影響。沒有經驗法則或圖表用於計算濕度對密度高度的影響。飛行員應該預期在高濕度條件下懸停和起飛性能會下降。
HIGHANDLOWDENSITYALTITUDECONDITIONS 高低密度高度條件
1-194.A thorough understanding of the terms high density altitude and low density altitude are required. In general, high density altitude refers to thin air, while lowdensity altitude refers to dense air. Those conditions resulting in a high density altitude (thin air) are high elevations, low atmospheric pressure, high temperatures, high humidity, or some combination thereof. Lower elevations, high atmospheric pressure, low temperatures, and low humidity are more indicative of lowdensityaltitude (dense air). However, high density altitudes may be present at lower elevations on hot days, so it is important to calculate density altitude and determine performance before a flight. 1-194. 需要對高密度高度和低密度高度的術語有透徹的理解。一般來說,高密度高度指的是稀薄的空氣,而低密度高度則指的是濃密的空氣。導致高密度高度(稀薄空氣)的條件包括高海拔、低大氣壓、高溫、高濕度或其某種組合。較低的海拔、高大氣壓、低溫和低濕度則更能表明低密度高度(濃密空氣)。然而,在炎熱的日子裡,低海拔地區也可能出現高密度高度,因此在飛行前計算密度高度並確定性能是很重要的。
1-195.One of the ways density altitude can be determined (CPU-26A/P is another) is through use of charts designedforthatpurpose(figure1-73,page1-57).Thegraphisusedtofinddensityaltitudeeitherontheground or aloft. Set altimeter at 29.92 inches to indicate PA. Read outside air temperature (OAT). Enter the graph at that PA and move horizontally to the temperature. Read density altitude from the sloping lines. 1-195. 確定密度高度的方法之一(CPU-26A/P 是另一種)是通過使用為此目的設計的圖表(圖 1-73,頁 1-57)。該圖表用於查找地面或高空的密度高度。將高度計設置為 29.92 英寸以顯示 PA。讀取外部空氣溫度(OAT)。在該 PA 進入圖表,並水平移動到溫度。從斜線上讀取密度高度。
Example 1. Find density altitude in flight. PA is 9,500 feet and temperature is 18 degrees F. Find 9,500 feet on the left of the graph and move across to 18 degrees F. density altitude is 9,000 feet (marked 1 on the graph). 範例 1. 在飛行中找出密度高度。海平面高度為 9,500 英尺,溫度為 18 華氏度。在圖的左側找到 9,500 英尺,然後移動到 18 華氏度。密度高度為 9,000 英尺(在圖上標記為 1)。
1-196.Most performance charts do not require computation of density altitude; instead, the computation is built into the performance chart. All that remains is to enter the correct PA and temperature. 1-196. 大多數性能圖表不需要計算密度高度;相反,計算已內建於性能圖表中。剩下的只是輸入正確的氣壓高度和溫度。
1-197.Weight is the force opposing lift. As weight increases, power required to produce lift needed to compensate for the added weight must also increase. Most performance charts include weight as one of the variables.Byreducingweight,thehelicopterisabletosafelytakeofforlandatalocationotherwiseimpossible. However,ifindoubt,takeoffisdelayeduntilmorefavorabledensityaltitudeconditionsexists.Ifairborne,land at a location that has more favorable conditions or one where a landing can be made that does not require a hover. 1-197. 重量是對抗升力的力量。隨著重量的增加,產生升力所需的功率也必須增加,以補償增加的重量。大多數性能圖表將重量作為變數之一。通過減少重量,直升機能夠安全地在原本不可能的地方起飛或降落。然而,如果有疑慮,起飛將延遲,直到出現更有利的密度高度條件。如果已在空中,則應降落在條件更有利的地方,或在不需要懸停的地方降落。
1-198.At higher gross weights the increased power required to hover produces more torque, which means moreantitorquethrustisrequired.Insomehelicopters,duringhighaltitudeoperations,themaximumantitorque produced bythe tail rotor during a hover may not be sufficient to overcome torque even if the gross weight is within limits. 1-198. 在較高的總重量下,懸停所需的增加功率會產生更多的扭矩,這意味著需要更多的反扭矩推力。在某些直升機中,在高海拔操作期間,即使總重量在限制範圍內,尾旋翼在懸停時產生的最大反扭矩也可能不足以克服扭矩。
WINDS
1-199.Wind direction and velocity also affect hovering, takeoff, and climb performance. Translational lift occurs any time there is relative airflow over the rotor disc. This occurs whether the relative airflow is caused 1-199. 風向和風速也會影響懸停、起飛和爬升性能。當旋翼盤上有相對氣流時,就會產生平移升力。這種情況無論是由相對氣流引起的。
by helicopter movement or wind. As wind speed increases, translational lift increases, resulting in less power required to hover. 透過直升機的運動或風。隨著風速的增加,平移升力增加,導致懸停所需的功率減少。
1-200.Wind direction is also an important consideration. Headwinds are desirable as they contribute to the most increase in performance. Strong crosswinds and tailwinds may require use of more tail rotor thrust to maintain directional control. This increased tail rotor thrust absorbs power from the engine, which means less power is available to the main rotor for production of lift. Some helicopters even have a critical wind azimuth ormaximumsaferelativewindchart.Operatingthehelicopterbeyondtheselimitscouldcauselossoftailrotor effectiveness. 1-200. 風向也是一個重要的考量因素。逆風是理想的,因為它們對性能的提升貢獻最大。強烈的側風和順風可能需要使用更多的尾旋翼推力來維持方向控制。這種增加的尾旋翼推力會消耗引擎的功率,這意味著可用於主旋翼產生升力的功率會減少。一些直升機甚至有一個關鍵風方位或最大安全相對風圖表。超出這些限制操作直升機可能會導致尾旋翼效能下降。
1-201.Takeoff and climb performance is greatly affected by wind. When taking off into a headwind ETL is achievedearlier,resultinginmoreliftandasteeperclimbangle.Whentakingoffwithatailwindmoredistance is required to accelerate through translation lift. 1-201. 起飛和爬升性能受到風的重大影響。當迎著逆風起飛時,ETL 會更早達成,導致產生更多的升力和更陡的爬升角度。當順著順風起飛時,則需要更長的距離來加速通過轉換升力。

It is assumed the helicopter is in good operating condition and the engine is developingits rated power. The pilot is assumed to be followingnormal operatingprocedures and to haveaverageflyingabilities.Averagemeansapilotcapableofdoingeachoftherequiredtaskscorrectlyandat appropriate times. 1-202。在開發性能圖表時,飛機製造商對直升機的狀況和飛行員的能力做出某些假設。假設直升機處於良好的操作狀態,且引擎發揮其額定功率。假設飛行員遵循正常的操作程序,並具備平均的飛行能力。平均指的是能夠正確且在適當時間內完成每項所需任務的飛行員。
1-203.Using these assumptions, the manufacturer develops performance data for the helicopter based on actual flight tests. However, they do not test the helicopter under each and every condition shown on a performance chart. Instead, they evaluate specific data and mathematically derive the remaining data. 1-203. 根據這些假設,製造商根據實際飛行測試開發直升機的性能數據。然而,他們並不在性能圖表上顯示的每一種條件下測試直升機。相反,他們評估特定數據並數學推導出其餘數據。
HOVERINGPERFORMANCE 懸停性能
1-204.Helicopter performance revolves around whether or not hover is possible. More power is required during hover than in any other flight regime. Obstructions aside, if hover can be maintained, takeoff can be made, especially with the additional benefit of translational lift. Charts are provided for IGE and OGE under variousconditionsofgrossweight,altitude,temperature,andpower.TheIGEhoverceilingishigherthanOGE hover ceiling due to the added lift benefit produced by ground effect. 1-204. 直升機的性能圍繞著是否能夠懸停。在懸停時所需的功率比其他任何飛行狀態都要高。撇開障礙物不談,如果能夠維持懸停,就可以起飛,特別是還有平移升力的額外好處。提供了在不同的總重量、高度、溫度和功率條件下的 IGE 和 OGE 圖表。由於地面效應產生的額外升力,IGE 懸停天花板高於 OGE 懸停天花板。

The heavier the gross weight, the lower the hovering ceiling. As gross weight is decreased, the hover ceiling increases. 1-205. 隨著密度高度的增加,懸停所需的功率也會增加。在某個時刻,所需的功率等於可用的功率。這確定了在現有條件下的懸停天花板。通過改變燃料、有效載荷或兩者來調整總重量,會影響懸停天花板。總重量越重,懸停天花板越低。隨著總重量的減少,懸停天花板會增加。

If the destination point is at a higher density altitude because of higher elevation,temperature,and/orrelativehumidity,morepowerisrequiredtohover.Youshouldbeabletopredict whether hovering power will be available at the destination byknowing the temperature and wind conditions. Using performance charts in the helicopter flight manual, and making certain power checks during hover and in flight prior to commencing the approach and landing. 1-206. 能夠在起飛位置以某一總重量懸停並不保證在著陸點有相同的性能。如果目的地因為較高的海拔、高溫和/或相對濕度而位於較高的密度高度,則需要更多的功率來懸停。您應該能夠通過了解溫度和風況來預測目的地是否有懸停功率可用。使用直升機飛行手冊中的性能圖表,並在接近和著陸之前進行某些功率檢查。
CLIMBPERFORMANCE 攀登性能
1-207.Most factors affecting hover and takeoff performance also affect climb performance. In addition, turbulent air, pilot techniques, and overall condition of the helicopter can cause climb performance to vary. 1-207. 大多數影響懸停和起飛性能的因素也會影響爬升性能。此外,湍流空氣、飛行員技術和直升機的整體狀況也會導致爬升性能的變化。
1-208.A helicopter flown at the best rate-of-climb speed obtains the greatest gain in altitude over a given periodoftime.Thisspeedisnormallyusedduringtheclimbafterallobstacleshavebeenclearedandisusually maintained until reaching cruise altitude. Rate of climb must not be confused with angle of climb. Angle of climb is a function of altitude gained over a given distance. The best rate-of-climb speed results in the highest climb rate, but not the steepest climb angle and may not be sufficient to clear obstructions. The best angle-of- climb speed depends upon power available. If there is a surplus of power available the helicopter can climb vertically; therefore, the best angle-of-climb speed is zero. 1-208. 直升機在最佳爬升速率下飛行,能在給定的時間內獲得最大的高度增益。這個速度通常在清除所有障礙物後的爬升階段使用,並通常保持直到達到巡航高度。爬升速率不應與爬升角度混淆。爬升角度是指在給定距離內獲得的高度。最佳爬升速率會導致最高的爬升速率,但不一定是最陡的爬升角度,並且可能不足以清除障礙物。最佳爬升角度速度取決於可用的功率。如果有多餘的功率可用,直升機可以垂直爬升;因此,最佳爬升角度速度為零。

SETTLINGWITHPOWER 以權力解決問題
1-211.Settlingwithpower(figures1-74through1-76)isaconditionofpoweredflightinwhichthehelicopter settlesinitsowndownwash.Thisconditionmayalsobereferredtoasvortexringstate.Undercertainconditions the helicopter may descend at a high rate which exceeds the normal downward induced flow rate of the inner blade sections (inner section of the rotor disk). Therefore, the airflow of the inner blade sections is upward relative to the disk. This produces a secondary vortex ring in addition to the normal tip vortex system. The secondary vortex ring is generated about the point on the blade where airflow changes from up to down. The result is an unsteadyturbulent flowover a large area ofthe disk whichcauses loss ofrotor efficiencyalthough engine power is still supplied to the rotor system. 1-211. 以動力降落(圖 1-74 至 1-76)是直升機在其自身下洗氣流中降落的動力飛行狀態。這種狀態也可稱為渦環狀態。在某些條件下,直升機可能以超過內葉片部分(轉子盤的內部區域)正常向下誘導流速的高速度下降。因此,內葉片部分的氣流相對於轉子盤是向上的。這會產生一個次級渦環,除了正常的尖端渦流系統之外。次級渦環是在葉片上氣流從向上變為向下的點周圍產生的。其結果是在轉子盤的大面積上產生不穩定的湍流,雖然仍然有引擎動力供應給轉子系統,但這會導致轉子效率的損失。
1-212.Figure 1-74 shows normal induced flow velocities along the blade span during hovering flight. Downwardvelocityishighestatthebladetipwherebladespeedishighest.Asbladespeeddecreasesnearerthe center of the disk, downward velocity is less. 1-212. 圖 1-74 顯示了在懸停飛行期間沿著葉片跨度的正常誘導流速。向下的速度在葉片尖端最高,因為葉片速度在此處最高。隨著葉片速度在圓盤中心附近減少,向下的速度也較低。

Averticalornear-verticaldescentofatleast300feetperminute(FPM).Actualcriticalratedepends on gross weight, rotor RPM, density altitude, and other pertinent factors. 垂直或接近垂直的下降速率至少為每分鐘 300 英尺 (FPM)。實際的臨界速率取決於總重量、旋翼轉速、密度高度及其他相關因素。
Rotorsystemmustbeusing20to100percentoftheavailableenginepowerwithinsufficientpower remaining to arrest the descent. Low rotor RPM could aggravate this. 轉子系統必須使用可用引擎功率的 20%至 100%,而剩餘的功率不足以停止下降。低轉子轉速可能會加劇這一情況。
During the initial stage (when a large amount of excess power is available), a large application of collective pitch may arrest rapid descent. If done carelessly or too late, collective increase can aggravate the situation resulting in more turbulence and an increased rate of descent. 在初始階段(當有大量多餘的功率可用時),大幅度的集體變距可能會阻止快速下降。如果操作不當或太晚,集體增加可能會使情況惡化,導致更多的湍流和下降速率的增加。
Insingle-rotorhelicopters,aviatorscanaccomplishrecoverybyapplyingcyclictogainairspeedand arrest upward induced flowof air and/orbyloweringthe collective (altitude permitting). Normally, gaining airspeed is the preferred method as less altitude is lost. In most helicopters, lateral cyclic thrust combined with an increase in power and lateral antitorque thrust produces the quickest exit from the hazard. 在單旋翼直升機中,飛行員可以通過施加循環控制來獲得空速並阻止向上的氣流,和/或通過降低集體控制(在高度允許的情況下)來完成恢復。通常,獲得空速是首選方法,因為損失的高度較少。在大多數直升機中,側向循環推力結合增加的功率和側向反扭矩推力能最快地脫離危險。
In tandem-rotor helicopters, fore and aft cyclic inputs aggravate the situation. By lowering thrust (altitude permitting) and applying lateral cyclic input or pedal input to arrest this upward induced flow of air, the aviator can accomplish recovery. 在雙旋翼直升機中,前後的循環輸入會加劇情況。通過降低推力(在高度允許的情況下)並施加側向循環輸入或踏板輸入來阻止這種向上的氣流,飛行員可以實現恢復。
The vortexringstate canbe completelyavoided bydescendingon flightpathsshallower thanabout 30 degrees (at any speed). 渦環狀態可以通過在約 30 度(以任何速度)以下的飛行路徑上下降來完全避免。
For steeper approaches, the vortex ring state can be avoided by using rates of descent versus horizontal velocity either faster or slower than those passing through the area of severe turbulence and thrust variation. 對於較陡的進場,通過使用下降速率與水平速度的比率,無論是快於還是慢於經過嚴重湍流和推力變化區域的速率,都可以避免渦環狀態。
At veryshallowanglesofdescent, the vortexring wake isdispersed behind the helicopter. Forward airspeed coupled with induced-flow velocity prevents the upflow from materializing on the rotor system. 在非常淺的下降角度下,渦環尾流在直升機後方擴散。前進的空速與誘導流速結合,防止了在旋翼系統上形成上升流。
At steep angles, the vortex ring wake is belowthe helicopter at slowrates of descent and above the helicopter at high rates of descent. Low rates of descent prevent the upflow from exceeding the induced flow velocities. High rates of descent result in autorotation or the windmill brake state. 在陡峭的角度下,渦環尾流在直升機下方時的下降速率較慢,而在下降速率較快時則在直升機上方。較低的下降速率防止上升流超過誘導流速。較高的下降速率會導致自轉或風車剎車狀態。
1-219.Ahelicopterissusceptibletoalateral-rollingtendencycalleddynamicrollover.Dynamicrollovercan occuronlevelgroundaswellasduringaslopeorcrosswindlandingandtakeoff.Threeconditionsarerequired for dynamic rollover—pivot point, rolling motion, and exceed critical angle. 1-219. 直升機容易受到一種稱為動態翻滾的側向翻滾傾向影響。動態翻滾可以在平坦地面上發生,也可以在斜坡或側風著陸和起飛時發生。動態翻滾需要三個條件——支點、翻滾運動和超過臨界角。
PivotPoint 樞紐點
1-220.Dynamic rollover begins when the helicopter starts to pivot around its skid, wheel, or any portion of theaircraftincontact withthe ground.Whenthishappens,lateralcycliccontrolresponseis moresluggishand less effective than for a free hovering helicopter. This can occur for a variety of reasons including failure to remove a tiedown or skid securing device, the skid or wheel contacts a fixed object while hovering sideward, or the gear is stuck in ice, soft asphalt, or mud. Dynamic rollover may also occur if proper landing or takeoff technique is notused or while performingslope operations. Ifthe gear or skid becomesa pivotpoint, dynamic rollover is possible if proper corrective techniques are not used. 1-220. 動態翻滾始於直升機開始圍繞其滑橇、輪子或任何與地面接觸的機身部分旋轉。當這發生時,橫向循環控制反應比自由懸停的直升機更遲鈍且效果較差。這可能由於多種原因造成,包括未能移除固定裝置或滑橇固定裝置、滑橇或輪子在側向懸停時接觸固定物體,或齒輪卡在冰、軟瀝青或泥土中。如果未使用正確的著陸或起飛技術,或在執行坡度操作時,也可能發生動態翻滾。如果齒輪或滑橇成為支點,且未使用正確的修正技術,則可能發生動態翻滾。
RollingMotion 滾動運動
1-221.The rate of rolling motion is vital. As the roll rate increases, the critical angle is reduced. In a fully articulated rotor system, all three control inputs (collective, cyclic, and pedals) can contribute to the rolling motion. 1-221. 滾動運動的速率至關重要。隨著滾轉速率的增加,臨界角度會減小。在一個完全關節化的旋翼系統中,所有三個控制輸入(集體、循環和踏板)都可以對滾動運動產生影響。
ExceedCriticalAngle 超過臨界角
1-222.To understand critical angle we must first discuss static rollover angle. Each helicopter has a static rolloveranglethat,ifexceeded,causestheaircrafttorollover.ThestaticangleisbasedonCGandpivotpoint. This angle is described as being the point where the aircraft CG is located over the pivot point. 1-222. 要理解臨界角,我們必須首先討論靜態翻滾角。每架直升機都有一個靜態翻滾角,如果超過這個角度,會導致飛機翻滾。靜態角是基於重心(CG)和支點。這個角度被描述為飛機重心位於支點上方的點。
1-223.When a rolling motion is present the dynamic rollover angle is introduced and is called the critical angle.Thedynamicanglevariesbasedontherateoftherollingmotionofthehelicopter.Thegreatertherolling motion the earlier (less bank angle) the critical angle is exceeded. If the dynamic rollover angle is exceeded, momentum carries the helicopter through the static rollover angle, regardless of corrections by the aviator. 1-223. 當存在滾轉運動時,引入動態翻滾角,稱為臨界角。動態角度根據直升機的滾轉運動速率而變化。滾轉運動越大,臨界角被超越的時間越早(傾斜角度越小)。如果超過動態翻滾角,動量會使直升機穿過靜態翻滾角,無論飛行員如何修正。
Types 類型
1-224.Certain factors influence dynamic rollover including right skid down, left pedal inputs (single-rotor aircraft),theeffectsofpilotinput(lateralmotion)inarigidrotoraircraft,lateralloading(asymmetricalloading), crosswind,andhighrollrates.Smoothandmoderatecollectiveinputsaremosteffectiveinpreventingdynamic rollover as it reduces the rate at which lift/thrust is applied. A smooth and moderate collective reduction is recommended if the onset of dynamic rollover is encountered. There are three main rollover types normally encountered—rollingoveronlevelground(takeoff),rollingdownslope(takeofforlanding)androllingupslope (takeoff). 1-224. 某些因素會影響動態翻滾,包括右側滑行、左側踏板輸入(單旋翼飛機)、在剛性旋翼飛機中駕駛員輸入的影響(橫向運動)、橫向載荷(不對稱載荷)、側風和高翻滾率。平穩且適度的集體輸入在防止動態翻滾方面最為有效,因為它減少了升力/推力施加的速率。如果遇到動態翻滾的開始,建議平穩且適度地減少集體輸入。通常遇到的三種主要翻滾類型為——在平坦地面上翻滾(起飛)、下坡翻滾(起飛或降落)和上坡翻滾(起飛)。
RollingOveronLevel Ground 在平坦地面上翻滾
1-225.A rollover condition can occur during takeoff from level ground if one skid or wheel is stuck on the ground. As collective pitch is increased, the stuck skid or wheel becomes the pivot point which sets dynamic rollover into motion. A smooth and moderate collective reduction is recommended lowering the aircraft back to the ground until the stuck skid or wheel is free. Then the aircraft may be picked up normally. 1-225. 在從平地起飛時,如果一個滑橇或輪子卡在地面上,則可能會發生翻滾條件。隨著集體桨距的增加,卡住的滑橇或輪子成為支點,導致動態翻滾開始運動。建議平穩且適度地減少集體桨距,將飛機降低回地面,直到卡住的滑橇或輪子脫困。然後,飛機可以正常抬起。
RollingDownslope 滾動下坡
1-226.A downslope rollover during landing (figure 1-78) occurs when the steepness of the slope causes the helicopter to tilt beyond the lateral cyclic control limits. If the steepness of the slope, a crosswind component, or CG condition exceeds lateral cyclic control limits, the mast forces the rotor to tilt downslope. The resultant rotor vector hasa downslope componenteven withfull upslope cyclic applied.

Atthispoint,aircrewmemberscanbetterassessslopeconditions.Afterstabilizingthehelicopterinthisposition, the aviator smoothly reduces collective until the downslope skid/wheel contacts the ground or cyclic nears lateral limits. If the cyclic is near the lateral limit, the aviator must carefully evaluate remaining distance to ensure enough cyclic travel remains to land without exceeding aircraft limits. If not enough travel remain the aviator should abort the landing, return the aircraft to a hover, and select an area of lesser slope. 1-226. 在著陸過程中發生的下坡翻滾(圖 1-78)是因為坡度的陡峭使直升機傾斜超過橫向循環控制的限制。如果坡度的陡峭程度、側風成分或重心條件超過橫向循環控制的限制,桅杆會迫使旋翼向下坡傾斜。即使在完全施加上坡循環的情況下,產生的旋翼向量仍然具有下坡成分。為了防止在著陸過程中發生下坡翻滾,飛行員應緩慢垂直下降,直到與上坡滑橇/輪子接觸。此時,機組人員可以更好地評估坡度條件。在將直升機穩定在此位置後,飛行員平穩地減少集體桿,直到下坡滑橇/輪子接觸地面或循環接近橫向限制。如果循環接近橫向限制,飛行員必須仔細評估剩餘距離,以確保有足夠的循環行程來著陸而不超過飛機的限制。如果行程不足,飛行員應中止著陸,將飛機返回懸停,並選擇坡度較小的區域。
1-227.A downslope rollover during takeoff (figure 1-78) can occur when the aviator lands the helicopter on too steep a slope, then attempts takeoff.

These adjustments include awaitingdifferentwindconditions,changingtheCGofthehelicopterbymoving/removingsomeoftheinternal load, or contacting a recovery crew. 1-227. 在起飛過程中發生向下坡翻滾(圖 1-78)可能是因為飛行員將直升機降落在過於陡峭的坡度上,然後嘗試起飛。如果上坡的滑橇/輪子首先開始上升,飛行員應該降低集體桿以防止向下坡翻滾的情況。如果在完全施加循環桿的情況下,主旋翼的產生升力不是垂直的或不夠向上坡方向,無法首先抬起下坡的裝置,然後進一步的起飛嘗試會導致主軸使產生的旋翼升力進一步向下坡移動,並導致動態翻滾。飛行員在進行額外的起飛嘗試之前應考慮進行一些調整。這些調整包括等待不同的風況、通過移動/移除一些內部負載來改變直升機的重心,或聯繫救援小組。

1-229.Dynamicrolloverusuallyoccursduetoacombinationofphysicalandhumanfactors.Physicalfactors considered in the prevention of dynamic rollover include main rotor thrust, CG, tail-rotor thrust, crosswind component, ground surface, sloped landing area, and in some aircraft, presence of a low fuel condition which mightcausetheCGtomoveupward.Theaviatorcanpreventdynamicrolloverbyavoidingthephysicalfactors causing it; however, human factors can interfere in the avoidance process. Human factors considered in the prevention of dynamic rollover include— 1-229. 動態翻滾通常是由物理因素和人為因素的結合引起的。防止動態翻滾的物理因素包括主旋翼推力、重心、尾旋翼推力、橫風分量、地面表面、傾斜的降落區域,以及在某些飛機中,可能導致重心上移的低油量狀況。飛行員可以通過避免引起動態翻滾的物理因素來防止動態翻滾;然而,人為因素可能會干擾避免過程。防止動態翻滾的人為因素包括—
Inattention. Dynamic rollover is more likely if the aviator at the controls is inattentive to aircraft position and attitude when lifting off or touching down to the ground, effectively losing situational awareness (SA). 不注意。當操控的飛行員在起飛或著陸時對飛機的位置和姿態不夠注意時,動態翻滾的可能性會增加,實際上失去了情境意識(SA)。
Inexperience. Most dynamic rollover accidents occur while inexperienced aviators are at the controls. The pilot in command (PC) must remain vigilant. 缺乏經驗。大多數動態翻滾事故發生在缺乏經驗的飛行員操控時。指揮飛行員(PC)必須保持警覺。
Failure to take timely corrective action. Timely action must be exercised before a roll rate develops. 未能及時採取糾正措施。必須在滾動比率發展之前採取及時行動。
Inappropriate controlinput. Applyinginappropriate or incorrectcontrolinputisthe rootcause of nearlyalldynamicrollovers.Iftheaviatorappliesappropriatecontrolinput smoothlyand carefully, dynamic rollover is avoidable. 不當的控制輸入。不當或不正確的控制輸入是幾乎所有動態翻滾的根本原因。如果飛行員平穩且小心地施加適當的控制輸入,則可以避免動態翻滾。
Loss of visual reference. Loss of visual reference may allow the aircraft to drift unnoticed by the crew. If the aircraft contacts the ground while drifting sideward, rollover can occur. Therefore, if visualreferenceislostwhiletheaircraftnearstheground,theaviatorshouldexecuteatakeofforgo- around using instrument techniques if necessary. 視覺參考的喪失。視覺參考的喪失可能使飛行器在機組人員不知情的情況下漂移。如果飛行器在側向漂移時接觸地面,可能會發生翻覆。因此,如果在飛行器接近地面時失去視覺參考,飛行員應根據需要使用儀器技術執行起飛或繞飛。

RETREATINGBLADESTALL 退刀停滯
1-231.The retreating blade of a helicopter eventuallystalls in forward flight (figures 1-80 through 1-82). As thestallofanairplanewinglimitsthelowspeedofaFWaircraft,thestallofarotorbladelimitsthehighspeed of a rotary-wing aircraft. In forward flight, decreasing velocity of airflow on the retreating blade demands a higher AOAto generate the same liftasthe advancingblade.Figure 1-80 illustratesthe liftpatternata normal hover with distribution/production of lift evenly spread throughout the rotor disk. 1-231. 直升機的後退葉片在前進飛行中最終會失速(圖 1-80 至 1-82)。就像飛機翼的失速限制了固定翼飛行器的低速一樣,旋翼葉片的失速限制了旋翼飛行器的高速。在前進飛行中,後退葉片上氣流速度的減少需要更高的攻角來產生與前進葉片相同的升力。圖 1-80 顯示了正常懸停時的升力模式,升力的分佈/產生均勻分佈在整個旋翼盤上。
1-232.Figure1-81illustratesthenormalcruiseliftpatternwherethesmallerareaoftheretreatingblade,with itshighanglesofattack,muststillproduceanamountofliftequaltothelargerareaoftheadvancingbladewith its lower angles of attack.

This smaller section of blade demands a higher AOA until the tip of the blade (area of the highest AOA) stalls. 1-232。圖 1-81 顯示了正常巡航升力模式,其中後退葉片的較小面積,儘管具有較高的攻角,仍必須產生與前進葉片較大面積及其較低攻角相等的升力。該圖顯示前進葉片在其整個跨度上產生升力,而後退葉片僅在其部分跨度上產生升力,這是由於前進空速的影響。當前進速度增加時,後退葉片的無升力區域變得更大,對後退葉片的逐漸減小部分產生升力的需求也隨之增加。這一較小的葉片部分需要更高的攻角,直到葉片的尖端(最高攻角的區域)失速。
1-233.Figure1-82,page1-65illustratesthesamediskatacriticalairspeedwiththeretreatingbladeproducing less than sufficient lift due to the no-lift area growing larger and effects of tip stall. Tip stall causes vibration andbuffetingwhichspreadinboardandaggravatethesituationwhiletheaircraftmayrollleftandnosepitches up.Whilethismaybesubtle,itworsensifaftcyclicisnotappliedorcollectiveisreduced(altitudepermitting). 1-233。圖 1-82,頁 1-65 顯示在臨界空速下的同一個旋翼,後退葉片因無升力區域擴大及尖端失速的影響而產生的升力不足。尖端失速會引起振動和顫動,這些現象向內擴散並加劇情況,同時飛機可能向左滾轉,機頭抬起。雖然這可能是微妙的,但如果不施加後循環或減少集體(在高度允許的情況下),情況會惡化。
The effects of retreating blade stall in a tandem-rotor helicopter create a different response. With the forward and aft rotor systems turning in opposite directions, effects of retreating blade stall on the separate rotors tend to counteract themselves. The pitch-up of the nose will be insignificant. Blade stall probably occurs on the aft system first as it operates in the turbulent wake of the forward rotor system. The most likely effect is an increasing vibration which is easily reduced by slowing down and reducing collective pitch (thrust). 在串列旋翼直升機中,後退葉片失速的影響會產生不同的反應。由於前後旋翼系統以相反方向旋轉,後退葉片失速對各自旋翼的影響往往會相互抵消。機頭的仰角變化將不會顯著。葉片失速可能首先發生在後部系統,因為它在前部旋翼系統的湍流尾流中運行。最可能的影響是振動增加,這可以通過減速和降低總揚力(推力)來輕易減少。
1-234.Inoperationsathighforwardspeeds,thefollowingconditionsare mostlikelytoproducebladestallin either single- or tandem-rotor helicopters: 1-234. 在高前進速度的操作中,以下條件最有可能導致單旋翼或雙旋翼直升機的葉片失速:

takeoff isnotan option,allpersonnelshouldremain in theaircraftuntilmain rotorshavestopped.Ground resonance usually occurs when the aircraft is nearly airborne (80 to 90 percent hover power applied). 起飛不是選項,所有人員應該留在飛機內,直到主旋翼停止。地面共振通常發生在飛機幾乎起飛時(施加 80 到 90%的懸停功率)。

However, at high speeds greater pressure changes occur causing compression of air which results in significant changes to air density. This compressible flowoccurs when there is a transonic or supersonic flow of air across the airfoil. Because helicopters are being flown at increasingly higher speeds, aviators must learn more about coping with effects of compressible flow. 1-239. 在低空速下,空氣是不可壓縮的。不可壓縮的氣流類似於水、液壓油或任何其他不可壓縮流體的流動。在低速下,空氣的壓力變化相對較小,密度變化也很小。然而,在高速下,壓力變化較大,導致空氣的壓縮,從而使空氣密度發生顯著變化。當空氣在翼型上流動時,這種可壓縮流動會發生在跨音速或超音速的情況下。由於直升機的飛行速度越來越高,飛行員必須學習更多有關應對可壓縮流動影響的知識。

1-241.Compressibility effects are not limited to blade speeds at and above the speed of sound. The aerodynamic shape of an airfoil causes local flow velocities greater than blade speed. Thus a blade can experience compressibility effects at speeds well below the speed of sound because both subsonic and supersonic flows can exist on a blade. 1-241. 壓縮性效應並不僅限於刀片速度達到或超過音速。氣動形狀的翼型會導致局部流速超過刀片速度。因此,刀片在遠低於音速的速度下也能經歷壓縮性效應,因為亞音速和超音速流動都可以存在於刀片上。
1-242.Differences between subsonic and supersonic flow are due to compressibility of supersonic flow. Figure1-84,page1-68,comparesincompressibleandcompressibleflowthroughaclosedtube.Inthisexample, the mass flow along the tube is constant. 1-242. 亞音速流和超音速流之間的差異是由於超音速流的可壓縮性。圖 1-84,頁 1-68,對比了通過封閉管道的不可壓縮流和可壓縮流。在這個例子中,沿管道的質量流量是恆定的。
SubsonicIncompressibleFlow 亞音速不可壓縮流動

Also, as the subsonic incompressible flow enters a diverging section of the tube, velocity decreases and static pressure increases; density remains unchanged. 1-243. 亞音速不可壓縮流的例子被簡化,因為流體的密度在整個管道中是恆定的。當流體接近收縮處且流線匯聚時,速度增加而靜壓降低。管道的收縮需要增加速度以適應流量的連續性。此外,當亞音速不可壓縮流進入管道的擴張段時,速度降低而靜壓增加;密度保持不變。
SupersonicCompressibleFlow 超音速可壓縮流動
1-244.The example of supersonic compressible flow is complicated because variations of flow density are related to changesinvelocityand static pressure. The behavior ofsupersonic compressible flowisa convergence causing compression; a divergence causes expansion. Therefore, as the supersonic compressible flow approachesaconstrictionandstreamlinesconverge,velocitydecreasesandstaticpressureincreases.Continuity of mass flow is maintained by the increase in flow density accompanying the decrease in velocity. As the supersonic compressible flow enters a diverging section of the tube, velocity increases and static pressure decreases; density decreases to accommodate the condition of continuity. 1-244. 超音速可壓縮流的例子相當複雜,因為流密度的變化與速度和靜壓的變化有關。超音速可壓縮流的行為是收斂造成壓縮;而發散則造成膨脹。因此,當超音速可壓縮流接近收縮處且流線收斂時,速度減少而靜壓增加。質量流的連續性是通過伴隨速度減少而增加的流密度來維持的。當超音速可壓縮流進入管道的發散段時,速度增加而靜壓減少;密度減少以適應連續性的條件。

1-246.Critical Mach number is the highest blade speed without supersonic airflow. As the critical Mach number is exceeded, an area of supersonic airflow is created. A normal shock wave then forms the boundary betweensupersonicandsubsonicflowontheaftportionoftheairfoilsurface.Theaccelerationofairflowfrom subsonic to supersonic is smooth and without shock waves if the surface is smooth and transition gradual. However, transition of airflow from supersonic to subsonic is always accompanied by a shock wave. When airflow direction does not change, the wave formed is a normal shock wave. 1-246. 臨界馬赫數是指在不產生超音速氣流的情況下,葉片的最高速度。當超過臨界馬赫數時,會產生一個超音速氣流區域。然後,正常激波形成超音速和亞音速流動之間的邊界,位於翼型表面的後部。如果表面光滑且過渡平緩,則氣流從亞音速加速到超音速是平滑的,且不會產生激波。然而,氣流從超音速過渡到亞音速時,總是伴隨著激波。當氣流方向不變時,形成的波是正常激波。
1-247.The normal shock wave is detached from the leading edge of the airfoil and perpendicular to the upstreamflow.Theflowimmediatelybehindthewaveissubsonic.Figure1-85illustrateshowanairfoilathigh subsonic speeds has local supersonic flow velocities. As the local supersonic flow moves aft, a normal shock wave forms slowing the flow to subsonic. As supersonic air passes through shock wave, air density increases, heatiscreated,velocityoftheairdecreases,staticpressureincreases,andboundarylayerseparationmayoccur. 1-247. 正常激波從翼型的前緣脫離,並與上游流動垂直。波後的流動為亞音速。圖 1-85 顯示了在高亞音速下,翼型如何具有局部超音速流速。當局部超音速流向後移動時,形成正常激波,使流動減速至亞音速。當超音速空氣通過激波時,空氣密度增加,產生熱量,空氣速度減少,靜壓增加,並可能發生邊界層分離。
1-248.Astheshockwavesmovetowardthetrailingedgeoftheairfoil,theaerodynamiccenterbeginstomove awayfromitsnormallocationof25percentchord.Bythetimetheshockwavehasreachedthetrailingedgeof the airfoil, the aerodynamic center has retreated to the 50 percent chord. This causes the leading edge of the airfoiltobedeflecteddown,whichmayresultinstructuralfailureoftheblade(skindeformationorseparation). 1-248. 當衝擊波向翼型的後緣移動時,氣動中心開始遠離其正常位置的 25%弦長。當衝擊波到達翼型的後緣時,氣動中心已經退回到 50%弦長。這導致翼型的前緣向下偏轉,可能會導致葉片的結構失效(表皮變形或分離)。
1-249.Because speed of the helicopter is added to the speed of rotation of the advancing blade, the highest relative velocities occur at the tip of the advancing blade. When the Mach number of the advancing blade tip sectionexceedsthecriticalMachnumber fortherotorbladesection,compressibilityeffectsresult.Thecritical Mach number is the free stream Mach number producing the first evidence of local sonic flow. The principle effects of compressibility are large increase in drag and rearward shift of the airfoil aerodynamic center. 1-249. 由於直升機的速度加上前進葉片的旋轉速度,最高的相對速度出現在前進葉片的尖端。當前進葉片尖端部分的馬赫數超過旋翼葉片部分的臨界馬赫數時,會產生可壓縮性效應。臨界馬赫數是產生局部音速流動的第一個證據的自由流馬赫數。可壓縮性的主要影響是阻力的大幅增加和氣動中心的向後移動。
Low temperature.Speedof soundis proportional tothe square root of the absolute temperature; therefore, the aviator more easily obtains sonic velocity at low temperatures. 低溫。聲速與絕對溫度的平方根成正比;因此,飛行員在低溫下更容易達到音速。
Turbulent air. Sharp gusts momentarily increase the blade AOA and thus, lower the critical Mach number to the point where compressibility effects may be encountered on the blade. 湍流空氣。尖銳的陣風瞬間增加了葉片的攻角,因此降低了臨界馬赫數,導致葉片可能遇到壓縮性效應。
