Effects of forward-facing cavity on drag in hypervelocity projectiles: a computational approach

The present numerical study examines hypersonic flow (Mach 5.9) over a blunt body, comparing configurations with and without a forward-facing cavity (FFC). Operating at 1200 Pa and 143 K free-stream conditions, the research focuses on critical parameters, including the drag coefficient, pressure flu...
