Abstract

The generation of side forces and yawing moments on three bodies of revolution with different types of canted fins is studied by means of 3D compressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations and wind tunnel measurements at Mach 2 and angles of attack between \(0^{\circ }\) and \(20^{\circ }\). The analysis of flow structures and the local force distribution on different parts of the models reveals the governing mechanisms for the dependence of loads on the angle of attack, the geometry and the roll angle of the model. Complex interactions of an induced rotatory flow motion due to fin cant with the crossflow was found to be the primary phenomenon.
