The EROS (European ROtorcraft Software) project was a three-year, European Commission funded, collaborative project between research institutes, universities and industry, with the goal of producing a practical computational fluid dynamic (CFD)-based design tool for rotor blade design. The overlapping mesh, or CHIMERA, approach was adopted for structured grid generation within the project. The specifics of volume grid generation in GEROS, the EROS grid generator, are presented here. The capabilities and effectiveness of GEROS are demonstrated, and sample grids are shown for fixed-wing hovering rotor and forward-flight rotor cases.
