This book was released on 1998 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wall-mounted semi-cylindrical model fitted with a single wrap- around in (WAF) has been investigated numerically and experimentally, with the objective of characterizing the mean and turbulent flowfield near a WAF in a supersonic flowfield. Numerical and experimental results are used to determine the nature of the flowfield and quantify the effects of fin curvature on the character of the flow near WAFs. This research has been motivated by the need to identify possible sources of a high-speed rolling moment reversal observed in sub-scale flight tests. Detailed mean flow and turbulence measurements were obtained in the AFIT Mach 3 wind tunnel using conventional probes and cross-wire hot-film anemometry at a series of stations upstream of and aft of the fin shock/boundary layer interaction. Hot-film anemometry results showed the turbulence intensity and Reynolds shear stress in the fuselage boundary layer to be far greater on the concave side of the fin than on the convex side. Mean flow was also obtained in the AFIT Mach 5 wind tunnel using conventional pressure probes. Numerical results were also obtained at the test conditions employing the algebraic eddy viscosity model of Baldwin and Lomax. Correlation with experimental data suggests that the calculations have captured the flow physics involved in this complicated flowfield. The calculations, corroborated by experimental results, indicate that a vortex exists in the fin/body juncture region on the convex side of the fin. This feature is not captured by the oft- used inviscid methods, and can greatly influence the pressure loading on the fin near the root.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The principal difference between a wrap around fin and a planar fin is that the WAF exhibits an induced rolling moment at zero degree angle of attack, while a straight fin has none. The Naval Ordnance Laboratory, along with other members of The Technical Cooperation Program, initiated a joint investigation into the causes of the induced roll moment. Measurements of the pressure distribution over both the convex and concave sides of a WAF showed that the primary difference in pressure across the fin occurred immediately behind the leading edge with the pressure on the convex side apparently being affected more by the curvature than that on the concave side. In general, for a WAF with fixed curvature, it appeared that the physical characteristic which would have the most effect on changing the roll moment would be the fin cross-sectional profile, especially the leading-edge profile.

Download or read book Handbook of Systems Engineering and Risk Management in Control Systems Communication Space Technology Missile Security and Defense Operations written by Anna M. Doro-on and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides multifaceted components and full practical perspectives of systems engineering and risk management in security and defense operations with a focus on infrastructure and manpower control systems, missile design, space technology, satellites, intercontinental ballistic missiles, and space security. While there are many existing selections of systems engineering and risk management textbooks, there is no existing work that connects systems engineering and risk management concepts to solidify its usability in the entire security and defense actions. With this book Dr. Anna M. Doro-on rectifies the current imbalance. She provides a comprehensive overview of systems engineering and risk management before moving to deeper practical engineering principles integrated with newly developed concepts and examples based on industry and government methodologies. The chapters also cover related points including design principles for defeating and deactivating improvised explosive devices and land mines and security measures against kinds of threats. The book is designed for systems engineers in practice, political risk professionals, managers, policy makers, engineers in other engineering fields, scientists, decision makers in industry and government and to serve as a reference work in systems engineering and risk management courses with focus on security and defense operations.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: A wind-tunnel investigation has been performed at low supersonic speeds (at Mach numbers of 1.60, 1.90, and 2.16) to evaluate the aerodynamic characteristics of a missile concept capable of being tube launched and controlled with a simple one-axis canard controller. This concept, which features and axisymmetric body with two planar canards and four wraparound tail fins arranged in opposing pairs, must be in rolling motion to be controllable in any radial plane with the planar canards. Thus, producing a constant rolling moment that is invariant with speed and attitude to provide the motion is desirable. Two tail-fin shaping designs, one shaved and one beveled, were evaluated for their efficiency in producing the needed rolling moments, and the results showed that the shaved fins were much more desirable for this task than the beveled fins.
