  2. Dynamic stall on helicopter rotors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_stall_on...

    [1] [2] Unlike fixed-wing aircraft, of which the stall occurs at relatively low flight speed, the dynamic stall on a helicopter rotor emerges at high airspeeds or/and during manoeuvres with high load factors of helicopters, when the angle of attack(AOA) of blade elements varies intensively due to time-dependent blade flapping, cyclic pitch and ...

  3. Retreating blade stall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retreating_blade_stall

    Retreating blade stall is a hazardous flight condition in helicopters and other rotary wing aircraft, where the retreating rotor blade has a lower relative blade speed, combined with an increased angle of attack, causing a stall and loss of lift. Retreating blade stall is the primary limiting factor of a helicopter's never exceed speed, V NE. [1]

    It has a maximum speed of 18 miles per hour (29 km/h). [2] The Ruppert Archaeopteryx has a certified stall speed of 30–39 kilometres per hour (19–24 mph). [3] The Vought XF5U can fly as slow as 32 kilometres per hour (20 mph). [4] The Tapanee Pegazair-100 stall speed is 45 kilometres per hour (28 mph).

  5. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(fluid_dynamics)

    Propeller slipstream reduces the stall speed by energizing the flow over the wings. [26]: 61 Speed definitions vary and include: V S: Stall speed: the speed at which the airplane exhibits those qualities accepted as defining the stall. [26]: 8 V S0: The stall speed or minimum steady flight speed in landing configuration. [27]

  6. Dissymmetry of lift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissymmetry_of_lift

    Dissymmetry of lift [1]: 2–20 [2] (also known as asymmetry of lift [3]: 342 [4] or asymmetric lift [5] [6]) in rotorcraft aerodynamics refers to an unequal amount of lift on opposite sides of the rotor disc. It is a phenomenon that affects single-rotor helicopters and autogyros in forward flight.

  9. Vortex ring state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_ring_state

    The signs of VRS are a vibration in the main rotor system [8] followed by an increasing sink rate and possibly a decrease of cyclic authority. [9]In single rotor helicopters, the vortex ring state is traditionally corrected by slightly lowering the collective to regain cyclic authority and using the cyclic control to apply lateral motion, often pitching the nose down to establish forward flight.
