Abstract:
This paper presents a numerical methodology to calibrate the performance of an existing vehicle in NASA Design and Analysis of RotorCraft (NDARC) and derive some vehicle upgrades. The UH-60A is used as the baseline vehicle and the infusion of the UH-60L and UH-60M technologies will be discussed. The calibration process includes various data found on the performance of the rotor from high-fidelity analysis and from the operator's manual.
