1. Green Rotorcraft

2. Environmental Objectives Clean Sky / GRC– IPAS 2013

3. Innovative Blades Drag Reduction Eco-friendly Design More Electrical RotorcraftOptimised Flight Paths High Compression Engine on Light Helicopter Clean Sky / GRC– IPAS 2013 An objective-driven approach implemented through demonstrators

4. Innovative Rotor Blades -3D-Optimized Blade Blade design for improved performances (stall alleviation, increased lift and reduced drag) PDR passed, Detailed design of full scale rotor in progress TRL 5/6 to completion (ground test demonstration) -Active Gurney Flap rotor Active device (Gurney Flap) actuated once per revolution and blended into blades: lift increased and reduced power CDR passed Both model scale & full scale tests under preparation Ground tests/ Flight test in 2014 (TRL6) Clean Sky / GRC– IPAS 2013

5. Drag reduction Clean Sky / GRC– IPAS 2013 -Rotor hub & pylon Optimisation of specific helicopter features (rotor hub, aft body, landing skids,) to reduce drag effects Wind Tunnel tests in progress (light& medium twin engine configs) Best solutions to be flight-tested in 2015-16 (TRL6) -Flow separation control devices for drag reduction Study of different active and passive devices Synthetic jets and steady blowing: successful Wind Tunnel Tests (TRL 4) -Engine installation Optimised engine installation (air-inlet, exhaust pipe)for both conventional and Tilt-rotor platforms ERICA tilt-rotor nacelle: Wind Tunnel verification of inlet & bypass efficiency (scheduled in 2014)
