Abstract: Abstract In this paper we present numerical simulation results of a complete helicopter configuration. The CFD code FLOWer (DLR) is used for the simulation of the aerodynamics. For the main rotor an aeroelastic analysis is performed using weak fluid-structure coupling between FLOWer and the flight mechanics code HOST (Eurocopter). As a reference configuration the complete helicopter configuration investigated in the EU project GOAHEAD has been chosen.
