EDISON CFD 수치 해법 기법을 바탕으로 초음속 유동장 속에서 spike가 부착된 무딘 물체에 대하여, spike 형상 변화에 따른 압축성 효과에 의한 항력 변화 추이를 고찰하였다. Spike의 길이 따른 항력 변화 추이를 살펴보았다. Spike의 길이가 Main body와 특정한 비율을 가질 때 항력이 최소가 된다. 이를 기준으로 spike 길이가 특정 길이만큼 줄어들거나 늘어날 경우에 각각 1.35%, 4.95% 항력이 증가하였다. 이러한 자료들은 초음속 유동장에서 무딘 물체에 가해지는 압축성 효과에 의한 저항을 최소화하기 위한 spike 설계 시 중요한 견해를 제공한다.

A spike attached to a blunt nosed body significantly alters its flow field and influences the aerodynamic coefficients at hypersonic speed. The basic body is an axisymmetric, with a hemisphere nose followed by a cylindrical portion. Five different types of spikes, namely, conical aerospike, hemisphere aerospike, flat-face aerospike, hemisphere aerodisk and flat-face aerodisk are attached to the basic body in order to assess the aerodynamic characteristic. The spiked blunt body without the aerospike or aerodisk has been set to be a basic model. The coefficients of drag, lift and pitching moment were measured with and without blunt spike body for the length-to-diameter ratio (L/D) of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0, at Mach 6 and angle of attack up to 8 degrees using a strain gauge balance. The measured forces and moment data are employed to determine the relative performance of the aerodynamic with respect to the basic model. A maximum of 77 percent drag reduction was achieved with hemisphere aerospike of L/D = 2.0. The comparison of aerodynamic coefficients between the basic model and the spiked blunt body reveals that the aerodynamic drag and pitching moment coefficients decrease with increasing the L/D ratio and angle of attack but the lift coefficient has increasing characteristics.
