Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive experimental analysis of the noise characteristics of an isolated tilt-rotor system under edgewise flight conditions. The investigation explores the effect of rotor tilt on noise and aerodynamics using flow velocity, thrust, and far-field noise measurements. Flow...
