Download or read book The 2002 Version of the Aeroprediction Code written by Frankie Gale Moore and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new version of the aeroprediction code (APC), the AP02, has been developed to address the requirements arising from advanced weapon concepts. The AP02 was formed by adding significant new technology and several productivity improvements to the previous version of the APC, the AP98. New technology added included 6 and 8 fin aerodynamics, improved nonlinear aerodynamics, improved pitch damping predictions, improved power-on base drag estimates, base-bleed effect on base drag estimation, improved axial force of nonaxisymmetric bodies and trailing-edge flap capability. Other improvements and productivity enhancements include an aerodynamic smoother, ballistic and three degree-of-freedom simulation modules as well as refinements for the pre- and post-processor for inputs and outputs of the AP02. Comparison of the predicted aerodynamics of the AP02 to AP98 and experimental data showed the AP02 to be slightly better than the AP98 in most cases that both codes would handle. However, due to the additional new technology incorporated into the AP02, many new options are available in the AP02 that are not available in the AP98. Therefore, the AP02 is more robust and, on average, is slightly more accurate than the AP98 in predicting aerodynamics of weapons.

Book Synopsis The 1995 Version of the NSWC Aeroprediction Code by : Frankie Gale Moore
Download or read book The 1995 Version of the NSWC Aeroprediction Code written by Frankie Gale Moore and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NSWC Aeroprediction Code has been extended to angles of attack (AOA) greater than 30 deg. To accomplish this, several data bases were used to approximate the nonlinearities in individual missile component aerodynamics. Theoretical aerodynamic methods are used at small AOA. The new semiempirical model was applied to several configurations and the empirical constants adjusted to eliminate some of the errors associated with wind tunnel measurements of individual missile component loads. The new version of the code (AP95) was then pplied to several other missile configurations and estimates compared to data and other aerodynamic code calculations. Comparisons were made for Mach numbers 0.1 to 10.0 and AOA of 0 to 90 deg (not all data were available on any single configuration). In general, average accuracy levels of ±10 percent could be obrained for axial and normal force coefficeint and ±4 percent of body length for center of pressure, using the AP95. An exception to this was at AOA above 30 deg and at high supersonic Mach numbers, where nonlinearities caused by internal shock interactions were not accounted for. While these accuracy levels are very encouraging for a semiempirical code, improvements in the AP95 methodology could be made by additional missile-component wind-tunnel data at high AOA.

Book Synopsis Refinements in the Aeroprediction Code Based on Recent Wind Tunnel Data by : Frankie Gale Moore

This book was released on 1999-12-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1998 (AP98) and prior versions of the aeroprediction code are based primarily on slender body and perturbation theories at low angle of attack and empirical constants that represent the nonlinear aerodynamics as a function of angle of attack, Mach number, aspect and taper ratio, and other missile geometric parameters. The primary data base upon which these empirical nonlinear constants were derived was based on the NASA/Tri-Service component data base taken in the 1970s. This data base was limited in body radius to wing semispan plus body radius ratios (r/s) of 0.5. A more recent data base taken by NASA and the former McDonnell Douglas Corporation, investigated other values of the parameter r/s of 0.25, 0.33 and 0.5. As a result of this new data base, the empirical constants in the AP98 were fine-tuned. This fine-tuning has shown the average normal force coefficient errors to be reduced by anywhere from 10 percent to over 40 percent on various missile configurations. The largest reductions in error were for configurations where the AP98 average accuracy was the worst. These new improved empirical constants will be a part of the next planned release of the aeroprediction code in 2002 (AP02). The AP98 average error on normal force coefficient of +/- 10 percent will therefore be somewhat better for the AP02.

Download or read book State-of-the-art Engineering Aeroprediction Methods with Emphasis on New Semiempirical Techniques for Predicting Nonlinear Aerodynamics on Complete Missile Configurations written by Frankie Gale Moore and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report discusses the pros and cons of numerical, semiempirical and empirical aeroprediction codes and lists many state-of-the-art codes in use today. It then summarizes many of the more popular approximate analytical methods used in State-of-the-Art (SOTA) semiempirical aeroprediction codes. It also summarizes some recent new nonlinear semiempirical methods that allow more accurate calculation of static aerodynamics on complete missile configurations to higher angles of attack. Results of static aerodynamic calculations on complete missile configurations compared to wind tunnel data are shown for several configurations at various flight conditions. Calculations show the new nonlinear methods being far superior to some of the former linear technology when used at angles of attack greater than about 15 degrees.

Book Synopsis Improved Power-on, Base Drag Methodology for the Aeroprediction Code by : Frank G. Moore
Download or read book Improved Power-on, Base Drag Methodology for the Aeroprediction Code written by Frank G. Moore and published by . This book was released on 2001-05-01 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Improved methods for base pressure prediction under base bleed and rocket motor-on conditions have been developed. The base bleed method makes several refinements to the method developed by Danberg at the Army Research Laboratory in Aberdeen, Maryland. The improved rocket motor-on, base pressure prediction improves upon the method developed at the Army Missile Command in Huntsville, Alabama by Brazzel and some of his colleagues. The major refinement to the base bleed method of Danberg was to estimate the power-off value of base pressure empirically based on an extensive data base, as opposed to using computational fluid dynamics codes to predict this term. The major modifications to the power-on base pressure prediction method of Brazzel was to extend its range of applicability to high values of thrust coefficient, to Mach numbers less than 1.5, and to different afterbody shapes. In comparing the improved methods for power-on base drag prediction to experiment, it was seen that both methods gave reasonable agreement to most experimental data bases. However, more validation is needed, particularly for the combined effects of angle of attack, fins, and power-on conditions.
Book Synopsis New Methods for Predicting Nonlinear Lift, Center of Pressure, and Pitching Moment on Middile Configurations by : Frankie Gale Moore
Download or read book New Methods for Predicting Nonlinear Lift, Center of Pressure, and Pitching Moment on Middile Configurations written by Frankie Gale Moore and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new semiempirical method has been developed to predict normal force, pitching moment, and center of pressure on missile configurations up to angles of attack of 30° The method is based on linear theory and slender body techniques at low angle of attack and uses wind tunnel data to derive nonlinear angle-of-attack corrections as angle of attack increaces. The new improved theories include body alone, wing alone, and body-wing and wing-body interference. While the new theory is databased, simple analytical formulas are derived that allow general use of the techniques. Comparison with the linearized approaches used in the former NSWCDD aeroprediction code shows singificant reductions in errors of aerodynamics above 5° to 10° angle of attack. Limited comparisons to other state-of-the-art engineering codes show the new theory to be as good as or better than anything known to be available for computing planar aerodynamics up to 30° angle of attack.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The NSWC Aero prediction code has been extended to the roll position of 45 deg (fins in 'x' or cross roll orientation) in addition to the roll position of 0 deg (fins in '+' or plus roll orientation). It has also been extended to compute aerodynamics of nonaxisymmetric bodies based on an equivalent axisymmetric body. In addition, the nonlinear aerodynamic loads have been distributed over the body and lifting surfaces to provide a more useful tool for preliminary structural analysis. Finally, new technology was developed to improve the prediction of axial force at angle of attack (AOA). These new technologies have been integrated into the AP95 and will be transitioned to legitimate users as the AP98. To make the AP98 more user friendly, an upgraded pre- and post-processing, personal computer interface was also developed. Comparisons of the new theory have been made to both experimental data and the AP95. Comparisons of theory and experiment show the AP98 to be at least as good as the AP95 and, in general, maybe slightly better. In general, average accuracy levels of aerodynamics are +/- 10 percent on axial and normal force and +/- 4 percent of body length on center of pressure. For nonaxisymmetric body cases, accuracy can be slightly higher than these numbers, although not enough cases have been considered to make a definitive assessment. While these accuracy levels are encouraging for a semiempirical code, they could be improved upon by use of computational fluid dynamics codes or additional experimental data or both to reduce errors due to limited data bases.
