Aerodynamic Characteristics of Unguided Artillery Projectile

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper presents results of investigation of a flow over unguided artillery projectile in order to understand variation of flow parameters past a 155 mm artillery projectile M107 and the performance of the computational code. Furthermore; static aerodynamic coefficients were calculated. The flow around projectile was solved as 3-D unsteady compressible flow.
