In severe maneuvers, out of necessity for a military aircraft or inadvertently for a civil aircraft, a helicopter airfoil will stall in a dynamic manner and provide lift beyond what would be calculated based on static airfoil tests. The augmented lift that occurs in dynamic stall is related to a vortex that is shed near the leading edge of the airfoil. However, directly related to the augmented lift that results from the dynamic stall vortex are significant penalties in pitching moment and drag. An understanding of the relationship between the augmented lift in dynamic stall and the associated moment and drag penalties is the purpose of this paper. This relationship is characterized using data obtained in two-dimensional wind tunnel tests and related to the problem of helicopter maneuverability.
