Abstract

Lateral thrust jet has better maneuverability performance than the control surface like the conventional fin for attitude control or orbital transition of guided weapons. However, in the supersonic region, a jet interaction flow occurs due to the lateral thrust jet during flight, and a complicated flow structure is exhibited by the interaction of the shock wave, boundary layer flow, and the vortex flow. Especially, hit-to-kill interceptors require precise control and maneuvering, so it is necessary to analyze the effect of jet interaction flow. Conventional jet interaction analyses were performed under low altitude conditions, but there are not many cases in the case of medium altitude condition, which has different flow characteristics. In this study, jet interaction flow analysis is performed on the lateral jet controlled interceptor operating at medium altitude. Based on the results, the structural characteristics of the flow field and the changes of aerodynamic coefficient are analyzed.

측 추력 제트는 유도무기의 자세제어 및 궤도 천이 기동을 하는 데 있어 기존의 핀과 같이 제어 면을 이용한 방식보다 우수한 기동성을 갖는다. 하지만 초음속 영역에서 비행 시 측 추력 제트로 인한 제트 간섭 유동이 발생하며 충격파와 경계층 유동, 와류 유동의 상호 작용으로 인해 매우 복잡한 유동 구조를 나타낸다. 특히 직격 파괴(hit-to-kill) 방식의 요격체의 경우 정밀한 제어 및 기동이 요구되기 때문에 제트 간섭 유동이 미치는 영향에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 기존의 제트 간섭 해석은 저고도 운용 조건에서 주로 수행되었으나 중고도 운용 조건의 경우 해석 사례가 많지 않으며 대기 조건으로 인해 분사 제트 유동이 상대적으로 크게 발달하는 특징을 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 중고도에서 비행하는 요격체 형상에 대해 받음각 조건에 따라 제트 간섭 유동 해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과를 바탕으로 유동장의 구조적인 변화 특성을 분석하였으며, 공력 계수의 변화를 비교하였다.
