Pages : 860
Book Description
Written by an internationally recognized teacher and researcher, this book provides a thorough, modern treatment of the aerodynamic principles of helicopters and other rotating-wing vertical lift aircraft such as tilt rotors and autogiros. The text begins with a unique technical history of helicopter flight, and then covers basic methods of rotor aerodynamic analysis, and related issues associated with the performance of the helicopter and its aerodynamic design. It goes on to cover more advanced topics in helicopter aerodynamics, including airfoil flows, unsteady aerodynamics, dynamic stall, and rotor wakes, and rotor-airframe aerodynamic interactions, with final chapters on autogiros and advanced methods of helicopter aerodynamic analysis. Extensively illustrated throughout, each chapter includes a set of homework problems. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, practising engineers, and researchers will welcome this thoroughly revised and updated text on rotating-wing aerodynamics.

Book Description
Optical methods are now used routinely for the measurement of velocity, concentration, temperature, and other parameters in wide-ranging areas of industrial research and design such as IC engines, turbines, and combustors. Recent advances such as the use of high-resolution CCD cameras and the extension of flow mapping to three dimensions, make optical tools such as particle image velocimetry increasingly viable for use in the industrial environment. This excellent book presents new developments in optical diagnostic techniques in heat and fluid flow and offers an unparalleled opportunity for industrialists and academic researchers to exchange ideas. CONTENTS INCLUDE: Comparison of injector sprays for gasoline direct-injection engines The design, development, and preliminary results from a high-speed, optically accessed, single cylinder engine The reflected spectrum of complex multi-layered inhomogeneous highly scattering medium Development of full volume digital holography for particle measurement Improved liquid crystal thermography by using true-colour image processing technology Development of an optical measuring technique for the study of acoustical phenomena Spatio-temporal reconstruction of the unsteady wake of axisymmetric bluff bodies via time-recording DPIV Application of particle image velocimetry to helicopter vortex interactions Pulsed laser particle image velocimetry using a fibre-optic delivery system Automated fringe analysis for profilometric mass-transfer experiments.
