Results of model tests of a rotating composite beam with integrated piezoelectric active element are presented in the paper. A proposed electromechanical system is a simplified model of the structure of a modern helicopter rotor blade. Numerical analysis of the considered system is developed by means of the finite element method. In addition, the laboratory setup has been built in order to perform real experimental studies. Selected static and dynamic characteristics of the object are determined by a series of numerical simulations. The results are compared with the outcomes of tests performed on the experimental setup. A very good agreement between numerical simulation and experiment results is observed.
