Simulation results concerning performance of helicopter suitable for high-mountain rescue operations are
presented. Including operations in regions of the highest Himalaya Mountains, the possibility of hover ceiling out of
ground effect (OGE) at 10,000 m above sea level is assumed. Demand of high ratio of developed lift to power required
for hover leads to choice the coaxial rotor configuration as the best for rescue helicopter, which can operate in extremely
high mountain environment, and gives good stability features in wind gust conditions in comparison with single main
rotor helicopter. For performance calculations the simple model of helicopter is applied, which consists of fuselage
point mass and rotor disk. The cases of partial and total power loss are considered to define range of H-V zones and
possibilities of flight continuation due to height of landing surface over level of sea. The rotor blades and rotor loads
are calculated applying detail model of elastic blade, which includes effects of its deflections due to out-of-plane
bending, in plane bending, and torsion. The Runge-Kutta method is applied to solve equations of motion of rotor blades
with taken into account effects of blade pitch control and variable deflections of blades. According to Galerkin method,
the blade parameters of motion are treated as a combination of torsion and bending eigen modes of the rotor blades.
Elastic blade model allows defining behaviour rotor blades in selected states of flight: hover, level flight, wind gust
conditions, and pull-up manoeuvre. The results of simulation for upper and lower rotor for blade deflections and loads
are shown in form of time-run plots and rotor disk distributions. The simulation investigation may be applied to define
features of helicopter configuration suitable for operation in extremely high mountain conditions..
