Experimental investigation of main rotor wake

In this Bracelet work, experimental results of rotor wake in hover mode are presented.The experiments were carried out with a rotor rig model in the T-1K wind tunnel in Kazan National Research Technical University (Kazan Aviation Institute).The rotor consisted of four identical blades.

The Q-criterion was used to identify tip vortices for a 9VR 2D case.The results were then compared with two different wake models.
