This paper describes scale-resolving unsteady flow simulations performed using a Lattice-Boltzmann based solver, applied, for the first time, to a full-scale helicopter main rotor in forward flight. The simulation setup is obtained through a fully automated in-house developed workflow. Validation is performed by comparing thrust and power coefficients with reference wind tunnel data; with and without trimming based on an in-house developed Newton-Raphson trim algorithm. Results for different rotor advance ratios yield insight in both aerodynamic and acoustic quantities for the rotor, highlighting both mean as well as unsteady behavior. Finally, digital helicopter noise certification is performed by calculating the ground noise map for a helicopter in landing condition.
