Abstract
The experimental results of a parallel Blade-Vortex Interaction (BVI) study are presented. The quality of all pressure data reflects improve ments in the Glasgow University BVI facility and in the method of redu cing and presenting data. Pressure histories clearly track the passage of a vortex-associated disturbance across the aerofoil. Tracking this disturbance permits an examination of vortex convection velocities, a nd also allows for a correlation between vortex trailing edge passage and force and moment perturbations.
