METHOD OF ATMOSPHERIC DESCENT OF COMPONENT POSSESSING AERODYNAMIC EFFICIENCY SEPARATING FROM HYPERSONIC FLIGHT VEHICLE AND DEVICE FOR ITS REALIZATION

摘要

FIELD: aerodynamics. SUBSTANCE: in the method based on stabilization of separating component at a preset angle of incidence in the plane of symmetry under the action of aerodynamic flow stabilization of the separating component is accomplished in the whole atmospheric portion of the flight by action on it by an additional stabilizing moment equal in value and inverse in sign to the aerodynamic moment acting on the separating component at an angle of incidence equal to a zero aerodynamic lift and minimum aerodynamic drag at hypersonic flight speeds. The device uses a stabilizing device to the separating component; the stabilizing device is made as a rigid body of the ballistic type statically stable in aerodynamic flow; one end of the flexible coupling is hinge joined to the top of the stabilizing device, and the area of the stabilizing device midsection is determined from the relation given in the description of the invention. EFFECT: reduced areas of the fall zones of components separating from flight vehicles, simplified design of the device for realization of the method, reduced expenditures connected with the rent of the fall areas.
