Application of Modified Newton Flow Model to Earth Reentry Capsules
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2014, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper presents an implementation of the modified Newton method for the aerodynamic analysis of Planetary Reentry Capsules. A straightforward method is employed, such that a CATIA model and its hybrid surface mesh are used as input. Reference capsules are analyzed and results are compared to other similar codes. Future improvements of the code consider the Busemann correction of the wall pressure, heat flux evaluation and unsteadiness in order to enable the analysis of the hypersonic portion of trajectory and to assess the vehicle’s stability.
