Moscow plant them. Mile will develop a draft of a new high-speed helicopter

43
January 29, AEX.RU - The Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant (part of the Russian Helicopters holding) will develop a conceptual and technical design of the new Russian prospective high-speed helicopter until the end of November 2015, reports ITAR-TASS with reference to a representative of the Roman Kirillov holding. The amount of the contract for research work will be up to 3,3 billion rubles.

The company also has to manufacture and test the so-called "flying laboratory" - a prototype, on the basis of which tests will be conducted.

Initially, the program of a promising high-speed helicopter assumed two parallel developments - the Mi-X1 design bureau Mil and Ka-92 of the Kamov design bureau to select the best technological solution. As a result, the most optimal from an economic and technical point of view were recognized the solutions and approaches of KB Mil.

“Currently, the classic eight (Mi-8 helicopter) is the world market leader in the medium helicopter segment, so it was decided to maintain positions in this niche and develop a helicopter in the same“ weight category. ”As a model, it was presented to at the Farnborough Air Show in 2012, the project was defended and received state support, "said a representative of Russian Helicopters.

In May, 2013, Roman Chernyshev, then the general director of the Russian Helicopters holding, said that certification tests could begin in 2018-2020 years. According to him, at the first stage, the speed characteristics of the helicopter will exceed the current by about a quarter, the car will be manufactured on the basis of the available technologies and materials. Only at the second stage of the program will the holding start building a helicopter with higher speed and other technical characteristics.

The development of a promising high-speed helicopter (PSV) is provided for by the federal target program "Development of Civil aviation Russian technology. "PSV should provide a flight range of up to 1,5 thousand km and be adapted for vip transportation. At the first stage of the program, the cruising speed of the machine will be 300-350 km / h, at the second stage - about 450 km / h. Helicopter weighing 10-12 tons, it is focused on the needs of the aviation market, in the passenger version it will have a passenger capacity of 21-24 people, specialized versions of the helicopter are also being developed: search and rescue, patrol and medical.

        A high-speed helicopter can only be coaxial, because otherwise the problem of the retreating blade appears, it is it that limits the speed of helicopters to the value of the order of 350-400 km / h.

            Piston engine can be replaced by a turbine, solving the problem of power, but the supersonic tip of the blades becomes inevitable, the problem is sometimes solved with coaxial screws on both the An-70 and Tu-95, the fastest screw aircraft in history (920 km / h). For 500-800 km / h speeds, the turboprop engine is apparently optimal in terms of fuel consumption, the only problem is noisy, the Tu-95 seems to be the champion here, in terms of noise.

        You’re wrong just to do better what was brilliant in the Milev edition you had to jump above your head, but it turned out just like the genius of Mil, and it seems to you that you don’t have it, but you yourself think, did the designers and technologists mess around slowly all these years improved the car ??? So it turned out that the helicopter legend flies and will fly for another 40 years at least ... And then now, to surpass this design, you have to create a machine p 2 times superior to existing ones, which means we need a chief designer and a design bureau that is cooler than Mil had. So if they do it in 5-6 years, then they will receive the Stalin Prize! soldier

      I agree completely! I had to fly it in the North in different weathers, and even when it was not at all. Here, of course, a lot depends on the skill of the pilots, but skill is not developed on a bad machine. Reliable, unpretentious, time-tested device. Very good concept. Would not lose!
      After all, in Afghanistan they came from a mission in the form of one continuous hole, but on their own. And his speed is quite, 230 km / h. (I flew on such), and maybe more.
      It would be necessary to erect a monument to him.

          Klim hi ! I was interested in something else, I quote: "The amount of the contract for the research work of the Mi-X1 will be up to 3,3 billion rubles.", Now the same topic, but a little less than a year ago- "92 billion will be spent on the development of the Ka-2,5 high-speed helicopter rubles ", (read here), that is, it turns out the more expensive the project (+ 0,8 lard or + 24,24% of the cost of the Kamovsky project), the more persistently it lobbies. Wonderful are you in Russia ...

        Rachel
        This model took shape as a separate project as part of the work on the creation of a promising medium helicopter. The sonorous English name RACHEL is an abbreviation for Russian Advanced Commercial Helicopter (promising Russian commercial helicopter). Its task - neither more nor less - to replace the legendary Mi-8, the most massive and successful domestically produced vehicle. Several fundamental decisions have been made along the way. So, according to Russian Helicopters, instead of the sheer speed that was supposed to be pursued earlier, priority is given to economic efficiency and environmental friendliness. There will still be an increase in speed, but it will be about 25% compared to modern counterparts, and not 50 or 100, which were assumed by the programs of high-speed helicopters (note that they will continue to exist, but as separate projects). The selection of the priorities was made after a thorough market research carried out with the assistance of aircraft operators.
        According to the plan, RACHEL will become a multipurpose commercial helicopter with a maximum take-off weight of 10-12 tons. The passenger version with a comfortable cabin will be able to carry 21-24 passengers. Specialized versions are also being developed: search and rescue, patrol and medical. The management of the Russian Helicopters holding suggests that this aircraft may become a new product of the Russian helicopter industry, which will gradually replace the fleet of Mi-8/17 helicopters. Together with the heavier Mi-38 helicopter, it is designed to strengthen the company's position in traditional markets in the long term. For the first time, the RACHEL concept was demonstrated to visitors to the Farnborough Air Show last year, and additional information on the promises of the holding representatives will be available privately at HeliRussia-2013.

        I don’t understand something - how does his propeller work, which is on the tail boom? It seems like "left-right" should push depending on the direction of rotation of the main carrier.

          30 January 2014 15: 31
          I’m also wondering how they compensate for the moment of rotation. Maybe he is not standing right, but at an angle?
          Considered: There, in the plane of the ring, the vertical "rudder" stands, apparently deflects the flow to the desired angle.

            Well, if things are as they say. It is too similar to the fact that Kamovites are pushed out like MiGs are pushed out of planes. A healthy competition would not hurt.

            One of the main technical tasks to be solved in the framework of
            grams of Mi-X1, is the creation and experimental testing local rotor retreat suppression systems (SLES). According to the developers, the introduction of such a system in combination with the use of a pushing propeller as an additional source of propulsive force and the general improvement of the aerodynamics of the helicopter will make it possible to get at least 1 km / h on the Mi-X500. Wherein thrust driven thrust screwlocated in a satellite stream, at the same time allows you to compensate for the reactive moment from the rotor of a single-rotor helicopter in hovering and low speeds

        Damn, this design, in principle, can not fly, because there is no device for quenching the reactive moment from the screw.

    I think that it’s not for nothing that the Milevians won. They always worked in this segment, but as far as I remember, Kamovites had no such work. Although, judging by the lower part of the fuselage, it is also suitable for Kamovites to land on water (?), If so, then this is a plus, especially during an emergency landing.
