The Software for the Captive Trajectory Yawmeter System.

Abstract

This report describes the mathematical analysis and software associated with the Captive Trajectory Yawmeter System (CTYS), which is used in Aeroballistics Division, WSRL to simulate store separation from aircraft. The CTYS uses a yawmeter probe attached to a traverse rig to measure flow conditions from which store loads are derived, and thus differs from the traditional Captive Trajectory System in which store loads are measured directly. The CTYS is therefore applicable to small continuous flow wind tunnels. Computer listings of all programs are included. (Author)
