Abstract

Accurate and economical estimates of the aerodynamic characteristics are vital for missile preliminary design. A rapid mediumfidelity method is presented to predict the aerodynamics of subsonic missiles. The vortex lattice method is used to calculate the lift, center of pressure, tail fin efficiency as well as dynamic derivatives. The missile drag is component based and accounts for the wing drag and fuselage drag. A tactical missile is studied as a case. The analysis indicates the maximum error of aerodynamic parameters is within 15% over the flight Mach number range of 0. 3 to 0.6, angle of attack from 0 to 8deg and the time penalty of a single operating condition is less than 20 seconds. The results confirm both accuracy and efficiency of the proposed numerical method.
