Turbine Engine produces a huge amount of power for their size at the same time it’s very expensive to operate. The operation of the turbine engine is completely different from the turbine engine used in the aircraft. It is more powerful and is used in a variety of the helicopter. Turbine Engine is used in the commercial helicopter. A reciprocating engine is mostly used in the training helicopter because of its simplicity and easy to operate.
Piston engine or reciprocating engine are basically used in a small helicopter which has less capacity to carry the load. In the helicopter mostly two types of engines are used. The First one is reciprocating engine and the second one is turbine engine. Now we will discussed about construction of a helicopter. We have discussed about lift and drag in previous article. It is generated by the pressure difference between upper section of airfoil and lower section of airfoil. Lift is an upward pushing force that overcomes the weight and sweeps into the air. It works on the principle of generating lift. The mechanism of the helicopter is the same as the mechanism of the aircraft. Firstly it was Incorporated a single main rotor and tail rotor design. It took flight at Stratford Connecticut on September 14 1939. First practical helicopter VS-300 was designed by Igor Sikorsky and was by the Vought Sikorsky aircraft division of the United aircraft corporation. It is very useful air transportation vehicle.
We will learn about helicopter construction, working and affecting factors.
