Unsteady Numerical Simulations of Subsonic Flow Over a Projectile with Jet Interaction

This report describes a computational study undertaken to consider the aerodynamic effect of synthetic jets as a means to provide the control authority needed to maneuver a projectile at low subsonic speeds. The time-accurate Navier-Stokes computational technique has been used to obtain numerical solutions for the unsteady jet interaction flow field for a projectile at a subsonic speed, Mach = 0.11, and several angles of attack from O deg to 4 deg. Qualitative flow field features show the interaction of the time dependent jet with the free stream flow. Numerical results show the effect of the jet on the flow field, surface pressures and aerodynamic coefficients. Unsteady numerical results have been obtained for a two-dimensional jet flow and compared with experimental data for validation. The same unsteady jet modeling technique has been applied to a subsonic projectile. These numerical results are being assessed to determine if synthetic jets can be used to provide the control authority needed for maneuvering munitions to hit the targets with precision.

Unsteady Flow Computations of a Finned Body in Supersonic Flight

This report describes a multidisciplinary computational study undertaken to compute the flight trajectories and simultaneously predict the unsteady free flight aerodynamics of a finned projectile at supersonic speeds with the use of an advanced unstructured time-accurate Navier-Stokes computational technique. Actual flight trajectories are computed with an advanced coupled computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-rigid body dynamics (RBD) technique. In addition, our goal is to be able to extract the aerodynamic coefficients from these fully coupled time-accurate CFD-RBD computations. Computed positions and orientations of the projectile have been compared with actual data measured from free flight tests and are found to be generally in good agreement. Unsteady numerical results obtained from the coupled method and unstructured grids show the flow field, the extracted aerodynamic forces and moments, and the flight trajectories of the projectile. Aerodynamic coefficients such as the dynamic derivatives have been obtained with a separate unsteady time-accurate CFD approach and have been compared with the extracted aerodynamic coefficients from the fully coupled dynamic simulations.
