Urban Air Mobility (UAM) is envisioned to be the future air transportation system over populated areas, where everything from small package delivery drones to passenger-carrying air taxis are able to interact safely and efficiently. The capacity of multi-rotor vehicles to perform vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL), together with their great maneuverability, make them an excellent choice for UAM aircraft. The accurate prediction of multirotor vehicles performance and acoustics is very challenging due to the unsteady and complex flows, as well as the aerodynamic interactions. By running high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics simulations on NASA supercomputers, researchers model the complex aerodynamics of multi-rotor flows, getting us closer to making UAM a reality.
