Practical Aerodynamics of the Mi-6 Helicopter

Abstract

The book presents a brief description of the helicopter, the aerodynamics of its lifting system and fuselage, characteristics of the D-25V gas turbine engine and the 'pitch-gas' system. The basic flying modes of the helicopter, methods for performing them and flying limitations for the Mi-6 helicopter with trapezoidal and rectangular lifting rotor blades, as well as problems of balancing, control centering and stability of the helicopter and special cases in flight are analyzed. The diagrams of forces in flying modes with forward speed are presented for simplicity without considering banking or slipping with which the helicopter should be balanced. These problems are discussed in the analysis of balancing of the helicopter.
