  • SPENN TATE1 8 5 5

    Objectives

    Design, construct, and experimentally validate a first generation prototype of a passive or semi-active LORD Fluidlastic bypass damper that greatly reduces damper forces when damping is not required

    An adaptable lag damper could greatly reduce the forces seen both by the damper and the blade and hub attachment points.

    Longer damper life, smaller lower drag parts, lighter dampers

  • SPENN TATE1 8 5 5

    Approach: Experiment

    Design damper to meet damping requirements for a generic light helicopter

    Reduce damper force by at least 50% via a bypass feature

    Conduct a series of experimental bench tests to evaluate the damper performance with bypass channels open and closed

  • SPENN TATE1 8 5 5

    Approach: Analysis

    Predict damper behavior using basic analytical fluid flow equations

    Develop a CFD model of the bypass damper

    Validate models with experimental data

    Use findings to work towards ultimate goal of developing a first-principles model that incorporates CFD correction factors
