In this image, a concept for a six-passenger quadcopter is run through a computer simulation to visualize the interaction of airflow among the four rotors. Among the design goals are to minimize the interaction between the front and rear rotors, while keeping an efficient and compact configuration. The background shows the pressure oscillations, where white is high and black is low. To create this visualization the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nas.nasa.gov\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Pleiades and Electra supercomputers<\/a> at NASA’s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/ames\">Ames Research Center<\/a> in California were used to process the hundreds of millions of data points that are the result of four three-bladed rotors rotating and slightly flexing as they do. For the more technically minded, the supercomputers were powered by up to 3,000 Intel Xeon Broadwell, Ivy Bridge, and Skylake processors and used NASA’s OVERFLOW computational fluid dynamics code.<\/p>\n<p>Image Credit: NASA\/Patricia Ventura Diaz<br \/>\nText Credit: Jim Banke, Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate<\/p>\n"},"caption":{"rendered":"<p>In this image, a concept for a six-passenger quadcopter is run through a computer simulation to visualize the interaction of airflow among the four rotors.<\/p>\n"},"alt_text":"Concept of 6-passenger quadcopter is run through a computer simulation to visualize the interaction of airflow and the 4 rotors.","media_type":"image","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","media_details":{"width":1041,"height":690,"file":"2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg","filesize":224660,"sizes":{"thumbnail":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=150,150","width":150,"height":150,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=150&h=150&crop=1"},"medium":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=300,199","width":300,"height":199,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=300"},"medium_large":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=768,509","width":768,"height":509,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=1024"},"large":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=1024,679","width":1024,"height":679,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=1024"},"thumbnail-sm":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=50,50","width":50,"height":50,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=50&h=50&crop=1"},"thumbnail-md":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=100,100","width":100,"height":100,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=100&h=100&crop=1"},"thumbnail-lg":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=200,200","width":200,"height":200,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=200&h=200&crop=1"},"card-xsm":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=400,265","width":400,"height":265,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=400"},"card-sm":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=600,398","width":600,"height":398,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=600"},"card-md":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg?resize=900,597","width":900,"height":597,"filesize":224660,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg?w=900"},"full":{"file":"visualize-aam.jpg","width":1024,"height":679,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg"}},"image_meta":{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"Created with Tecplot Version 2018.2.1.93726","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"All Frames","orientation":"0","keywords":[]},"credits":"NASA \/ Patricia Ventura Diaz","original_date":{"stamp":0,"display":""}},"post":null,"source_url":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/visualize-aam.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/221300"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/attachment"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"media-tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media-tags?post=221300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
