Abstract:

A separated nose section of a launch vehicle with an emergency rescue system ERS is a flight vehicle FV with a jet engine JE in the front position and with honeycomb lattice fins LF in the base region. The flight vehicle configuration is illustrated in Fig. I above the X-axis and a schematic of its scaled aerodynamic model is shown below the X-axis. Determination of aerodynamic characteristics AC for that sort of fight vehicle is a complicated problem which may be solved combining experimental techniques and theoretical calculations. Such work includes the following stages.
