Abstract
An air directing arrangement for controlling flow of air at a compartment outlet of a fuselage of a rotorcraft. The air directing arrangement comprises a continuous surface that covers the compartment outlet outside the fuselage and forms a flow channel for directing an air flow at the compartment outlet; a first flow-through opening that is formed at a first position of the flow channel, wherein the first flow-through opening forms an air inlet area; and a second flow-through opening that is formed at a second position of the flow channel, wherein the second flow-through opening is arranged downstream of the first flow-through opening in the predetermined flow direction, and wherein the second flow-through opening forms an air outlet area; wherein the air inlet area is smaller than the air outlet area.
