Hypersonic control effectors
- Abstract:
-
In the design of any flight vehicle, preliminary concepts are assessed based on key performance indices. For hypersonic vehicles (except re-entry capsules), two of the most important indices are manoeuvrability and controllability, both of which are functions of the control effectiveness - how much control moment the control effectors can produce. The most common control effectors in the continuum regime are aerodynamic control surfaces, but shock waves and potential flow separation regions a...
