Abstract

A number of spoilers are designed in the leading edge of the weapons bay which may possibly control the flow and improve the yawing moment characteristic in the missile separating course so as to force the missile's head to reverse for the safety of the separation yawing. To study the problem, spoilers of different heights are built in the leading edge of the weapons bay through theoretical analysis and a wind tunnel test is conducted to measure the forces acting on the parts so as to study the spoilers' effect on the flow patterns in the bay and the missile's yawing moment characteristics. Furthermore, the spoilers' effect on the missile's yawing separation characteristics is analyzed, and the credibility of the separation yawing attitude angle characteristic analysis is validated by a track capture wind tunnel test. The result shows that designing spoilers with certain heights in the leading edge of the weapons bay can effectively control the flow patterns in the bay, improve the missile's yawing aerodynamic characteristic, and improve the separating yawing safety.
