Test Technique Research for the Hinge Moment of a Grid Fin in High Speed Wind Tunnel

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to study the test technique for the hinge moment of a grid fin in wind tunnel, a platform based on half model support technique was established in FL-23 and FL-31 wind tunnel in China Aerodynamics Research & Development Center (CARDC). The platform developed a wind tunnel test balance, rudder control system and the aerodynamics measurement system. This test technique was important to optimize aerodynamic configurations of a grid fin, design or evaluate the capability of the rudder control system. Nomenclature
