Report Number: R16E0113 Responsible Representative: Eiichi Sato(Department of Space Flight Systems, Institute of Space and Astronautical Science, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) Contact Information: Mikiroh Motoe(motoe.mikiroh@jaxa.jp) Members: Toru Shimada, Mikiroh Motoe, Tomoki Matsuno Subject Category: Space(Space transportation,Satellite utilization,Space engineering) Abstract It is natural and logical to require safe and economic space transportation for the realization of sustainably growing future space economy. However, the current space transportation system cannot be as safe as the current aircraft because the current rocket has essential・・・<<read more>>
Report Number: R16E0111 Responsible Representative: Yuichi Matsuo(Aeronautical Technology Directorate, Numerical Simulation Research Unit) Contact Information: Yoimi Kojima(y-kojima@st.go.tuat.ac.jp) Members: Yoimi Kojima Subject Category: Aviation(Aircraft) Abstract Transonic buffet is self-induced oscillation of shock waves appeared on a suction side of a wing. In this project, we simulated the transonic buffet over a NASA-CRM which is similar the actual aircraft shape. The numerical results indicate that spectrum of shock oscillation over the 3D wing exhibits broadband and three-dimensionally oscillation. It is a remarkable・・・<<read more>>
Report Number: R16E0110 Responsible Representative: Yuichi Matsuo(Aeronautical Technology Directorate, Numerical Simulation Research Unit) Contact Information: Keiichi Murakami(murakei@chofu.jaxa.jp) Members: Kohei Takahashi Subject Category: Space(Space transportation) Abstract We investigate the influence of the real gas effect on aerodynamic performance and aerodynamic heating for the target lifting body. Goal In the chemical reaction model, various temperature models have been proposed. The objective is to investigate the aerodynamic performance of the lifting body and their effect on aerodynamic heating. Objective The aim is to・・・<<read more>>
