Drag Assessment of Transonic Missile due to Engine Plume

엔진화염에 따른 천음속 유도탄의 항력 평가

  • Published : 2003.09.01

Abstract

Accurate assessment of the effect of jet plume on the boattail pressure drag of transonic airbreathing missiles is very important to reduce drag and to satisfy the flight range and the required maneuver. Numerical results of drag analysis for boattail and base pressures due to jet plume are presented considering the turbulence modeling. Drag assessment due to the size of jet plume, the conditions of the exhaust gas, the configurations of the boattail, and transonic mach numbers is included.
