Abstract

This paper carries out a modeling method of ducted propulsion system of vertical take-off and landing aircraft. On axial flow condition, the model of ducted propulsion system, based momentum theory, is established and verified. Based on the non-dimensional definition of open propeller, the non-dimensional method, applied to the ducted blades, is proposed. The research shows that the ducted propulsion system model and the ducted blade non-dimensional method are reasonable and effective, for high performance aircraft configuration design with tilting duct-fan propulsion system.
