Abstract
There has been necessity to supplement the fin database to improve the accuracy of low-fidelity aerodynamic solver for missile configuration. In this study, fin database is expanded by in-house solver, utilized in the triservice data the previously established into regions beyond means of CFD. Fin alone data of CFD analysis results in the original region is matched well with triservice data originated from the wind tunnel tests. Extensive fin aerodynamic data from CFD analysis is added to the existing database of the low-fidelity solver. For confirmation, aerodynamic characteristics of body-tail and body-canard-tail missile configurations is computed using upgraded low-fidelity solver at transonic region. The result using improved solver shows good agreements with wind tunnel test and CFD analysis results, which implies that it becomes more accurate.
