Rotorcraft blade-vortex interaction noise prediction using the Lattice-Boltzmann method

The aim of this paper is to assess the accuracy, capabilities and computational performances of the Lattice-Boltzmann/Very Large Eddy Simulation Method to predict the unsteady aerodynamic loads, the rotor wake development and the noise radiation of helicopter rotors in strong Blade-Vortex Interaction conditions. The numerical flow solution is...
