ABSTRACT


The unsteady compressible flow around a body tail projectile is numerically solved with a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method, Smagorinsky-Lilly model was used as the Sub-Grid Scale (SGS). The computed results are obtained in supersonic flow regime for a viscous fluid in order to determine the aerodynamic coefficients with different angles of attack. The flow around a body tail projectile was solved as a three-dimensional flow.


Keywords: Body Tail Projectile, Aerodynamic Coefficients, FLUENT
