Drag Coefficient Measurements for Typical Bomb and Projectile Fragments
The FRAGHAZ computer program has been developed to predict the hazardous regions due to fragments produced by an accidential explosion of stored ammunition. Determination of these hazardous regions is based on computer simulations of fragment trajectories. Currently, the fragment drag coefficients used in the program are extrapolations of subsonic drag coefficients out to transonic and superson...
متن کاملHigh-order iterative learning identification of projectile's aerodynamic drag coefficient curve from radar measured velocity data
Extracting projectile’s optimal fitting drag coefficient curve Cdf from radar measured velocity data is considered as an optimal tracking control problem (OTCP) where Cdf is regarded as a virtual control function while the radar measured velocity data are taken as the desired output trajectory to be optimally tracked. With a three-degree of freedom (DOF) point mass trajectory prediction model, ...
متن کاملComparison of formulas for drag coefficient and settling velocity of spherical particles
Two formulas are proposed for explicitly evaluating drag coefficient and settling velocity of spherical particles, respectively, in the entire subcritical region. Comparisons with fourteen previously-developed formulas show that the present study gives the best representation of a complete set of historical data reported in the literature for Reynolds numbers up to 2×10.
متن کاملDrag coefficient reduction at very high wind speeds
[1] The correct representation of the 10-m drag coefficient for momentum (K10) at extreme wind speeds is very important for modeling the development of tropical depressions and may also be relevant to the understanding of other intense marine meteorological phenomena. We present a unified boundary layer model for (K10), which takes account of both the wave field and spray production, and asympt...
متن کاملImpact of Breaking Wave Form Drag on Near-Surface Turbulence and Drag Coefficient over Young Seas at High Winds
The effects of breaking waves on near-surface wind turbulence and drag coefficient are investigated using large-eddy simulation. The impact of intermittent and transient wave breaking events (over a range of scales) is modeled as localized form drag, which generates airflow separation bubbles downstream. The simulations are performed for very young sea conditions under high winds, comparable to...
