RotorcraftAerodynamic#

class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.aviator.RotorcraftAerodynamic#: Class defining the aerodynamic options for a rotorcraft.

Overview#

Properties

`rotor_count`	Get or set the number of rotors.
`rotor_diameter`	Get or set the diameter of the rotor.
`blades_per_rotor`	Get or set the number of blades on each rotor.
`blade_chord`	Get or set the chord length of the blade.
`rotor_tip_mach`	Get or set the Mach number of the advancing blade tip.
`fuselage_flat_plate_area`	Get or set the flat plate area for the fuselage.
`tail_rotor_offset`	Get or set the offset of the tail rotor.
`tail_rotor_diameter`	Get or set the diameter of the tail rotor.
`blade_profile_drag_cd0`	Get or set the drag coefficient when the rotor disc does not generate any lift.
`blade_profile_drag_k`	Get or set the induced drag coefficient, which accounts for how lift generation impacts drag.
`induced_power_correction_factor`	Get or set the slop factor that accounts for losses.
