Improved method developed to simulate numerically flow about helicopter rotor with multiple blades. Computes vortical wake beneath rotor without using simplified ad hoc mathematical models of effects in wake. Patched grids used in numerical simulation of flow about rotor blades. Cylindrical configuration simplifies interpolation at interface between rotating and stationary grids.
