Design of aerial-aquatic rotor test system and experimental study of rotor performance
The aerial-aquatic rotor vehicle is a cross-medium vehicle designed on the basis of rotor-craft and can navigate in two different media.Due to the large difference in the properties between water and air mediums,the performance of the rotorcraft in the water-air medium spanning process is still unclear.In order to study the performance changes of the rotor system during the process of trans-medium,a set of rotor cross-medium test system was designed,and the performance of the ro-tor system in the water-air cross-medium process was experimentally analyzed.The experimental comparison data of the rotor thrust under the ground effect and the water surface effect is obtained,and the weakening effect of the water surface effect on the rotor thrust is found.
