You can read online Preliminary Investigation Of The Effects Of Several Seeker Nose Configurations On The Longitudinal Characteristics Of A Canard Type Missile At A Mach Number Of 160 and write the review.

Experimental aerodynamic investigations were conducted at the CALSPAN Corporation's transonic wind tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of several nose-mounted canard wing configurations. Canard position, geometry, angular orientation, and model nose shape were varied systematically to determine their effects on model aerodynamics. Angle of attack was varied from -3 to 12 degrees and Mach number was varied from 0.6 to 1.25. Aerodynamic loads were measured separately for each of the four canards and tail surfaces, and the total model.
Experimental aerodynamic investigations were conducted in a supersonic wind tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of several nose mounted canard wing configurations. Canard position, geometry, angular orientation, and model nose shape were varied systematically to determine their effects on model aerodynamics. The model was tested at angles of attack of -5 to 13 degrees and Mach numbers of 1.5 to 4.5. Aerodynamic loads were measured separately on four canards and tail panels, and the total model. The vapor screen method was used to trace the paths of the vortices shed from the canards. Roll control effectiveness of canards, both with a planar tail and a ring tail was investigated.
