High-fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations have been carried out for NASA’s air taxi concepts. The high-fidelity approach uses high-order accurate schemes and dual-time stepping, which simulates the rotor with its individual rotating blade grids. The delayed detached-eddy simulation model has been employed. A loose-coupling approach between the flow solver and a rotorcraft comprehensive code is utilized to include vehicle trim and motion variables.NASA’s air taxi conceptual designs are intended to focus and guide NASA’s research activities in support of aircraft development for vertical take-off and landing air taxi operations
