Prediction of Six-Degree-of-Freedom Store Separation Trajectories at Speeds Up to the Critical Speed. Volume 1. Theoretical Methods and Comparisons with Experiment

Abstract

The primary objective of this report is to present a prediction method for determining the forces, moments, and six-degree-of-freedom trajectories associated with stores released from single, TER, or MER configurations on fighter-bomber aircraft up to the critical speed. A secondary objective is to present important experimental results and comparison with theory from an extensive wind-tunnel test program designed to provide data to test the theory through systematic measurements of flow fields, store load distributions, store forces and moments, and captive-store trajectories.
