The present invention includes a system and method for slowing the rotation of a rotor (902) using, for example, rotor brake system (900) for a rotorcraft (906) comprising: one or more generators connected to a main rotor gearbox (914); an electric distributed anti-torque system (924) mounted on a tail boom (108) of the rotorcraft comprising two or more electric motors connected to the one or more generators, wherein the two or more electric motors are connected to one or more blades; and wherein a rotation of the rotor is slowed by placing a drive load on the main rotor gearbox with the one or more generators to bleed the mechanical power from rotor into electrical power via the two or more electric motors, wherein the electric distributed anti-torque system generates thrust in opposing directions.
ROTOR BRAKE EFFECT BY USING ELECTRIC DISTRIBUTED ANIT-TORQUE GENERATORS AND OPPOSING ELECTRIC MOTOR THRUST TO SLOW A MAIN ROTOR
ROTORBREMSWIRKUNG DURCH VERWENDUNG VON ELEKTRISCH VERTEILTEN DREHMOMENTAUSGLEICHSGENERATOREN UND GEGENLÄUFIGEM ELEKTROMOTORSCHUB ZUR VERZÖGERUNG EINES HAUPTROTORS
EFFET DE FREINAGE DE ROTOR UTILISANT DES GÉNÉRATEURS ANTI-COUPLE DISTRIBUÉS ÉLECTRIQUES ET UNE POUSSÉE OPPOSÉE DE MOTEUR ÉLECTRIQUE POUR RALENTIR UN ROTOR PRINCIPAL
