A high-precision CFD method based on WENO(weighted essentially non-oscillatory)-piecewise linear scheme was established for numerical simulation on the rotor/fuselage aerodynamics interaction flow field. And it was suitable for the CFD solver of cell-centered scheme. The pressure coefficient on the surface of the fuselage of different rotor/fuselage model examples in forward flight was calculated by the method
and the calculation results were in good agreement with the experimental results
verifying the effectiveness of the calculation method. Then
the method was extended to simulate the flow field of X3 compound high-speed helicopter rotor/wing/propeller model in hover
and the flow field was compared with flow field of single rotor and rotor/wing model in hover. The results showed that the wing acted as a retarder on the downwash of rotor
causing the irregular flow under the wing. Furthermore
the slipstream of propeller and the downwash of rotor interfered with each other to produce a certain deflection
and the speed of downwash was faster than the speed of slipstream
the downward deflection of propeller slipstream was significant.
