A significant amount of research was devoted to understanding the mechanism of dynamic stall delay as applicable to the flow environment of a helicopter rotor in forward flight. One aspect of such research deals with the unsteady characteristics of two-dimensional airfoil sections over a Mach number range from 0.3 to 9.6, since such characteristics can be meaningfully related to rotor performance and loads. This paper summarizes the results of several oscillatory tests carried out on conventional, transonic and BLC-equipped airfoils.
