Dynamic Compatibility of Helicopter Propulsion Systems,

Abstract

The overall problem of achieving dynamic compatibility in helicopter propulsion system can be conveniently divided into four major areas: engine vibration limits; design of the engine/airframe interface; whirling and vibration of power transmission shafting, gearboxes, and bearings; and torsional stability of the engine and drive train with closed-loop fuel controls. These four areas are discussed each with a review of the state of the art and recommendations for future research and development. (Author)
