CFD Analysis of Tail Surface Modifications and Rudder Deflection Influence on I-28B Gyroplane at High Angle of Sideslip
Authors / Details: Adam Dziubinski, Instytut LotnictwaAbstract
In the following work a set of CFD computational cases was calculated in order to obtain the aerodynamic characteristics of I-28 gyroplane in a wide range of sideslip angle. Severe modifications were checked out, and most important on the directional stability components of forces and moments, acting on an airframe, have been shown in aerodynamic coefficient form. A part of these calculations was to test the influence of rudder deflection on baseline gyroplane aerodynamic properties. In order to compare the results with already flying example of gyroplane, with known, good flight characteristics, a geometry was reconstructed with low accuracy, but enough to obtain reasonable sideslip characteristics, especially for high sideslip angle.
