Several experimental and numerical studies on muzzle blast and flow fields have been
performed. However, due to the extremely short duration and the spatiotemporal evolution of …

Shooting accuracy of air gun projectiles is very important in sport tournaments and has
always been questioned by enthusiasts. For this purpose, the performance of four samples …

In this research paper, a numerical analysis in Computational Fluid Dynamics uses the
Finite Volume Method to visualize the external flow characteristics over a bullet speeding at …

The aerodynamics of projectiles launched from barrels of various devices is quite
complicated due to their interactions with the unsteady flowfield around them. A …

Numerical study of the shocked flows generated by a supersonic projectile released from a
launch tube into a big chamber has been performed in this paper. Based on fixed Cartesian …

Abstract A Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method has been applied to simulate the
pressure blast of the projectile which is launched from a barrel and to investigate the …

WHEN a projectile suddenly starts to move in the launch tube of a ballistic range, a series of
compression waves are formed ahead of the projectile, due to its piston effect. These …

A projectile when passes through a moving shock wave, experiences drastic changes in the
aerodynamic forces as it moves from a high-pressure region to a low pressure region. These …
