This study aims to develop an approach for the aerodynamic parameter estimation problem for supersonic air to air missile with rapid speed variation, as well as large variation of aerodynamic parameters with respect to Mach number. In literature, most of the estimation techniques require that estimator is time independent. Therefore, most of the aerodynamic parameter estimation methods are applied for air vehicles which have control over their speed or which can operate at relatively constant Mach number so that the variation of aerodynamic coefficients with respect to Mach number is eliminated. For aircrafts, it is possible to identify aerodynamic parameters during trimmed flight condition at an approximately constant Mach number. Moreover, since a fixed wing aircraft has control over its thrust and speed, many flight tests can be conducted to identify aerodynamic derivatives at discrete Mach numbers. On the contrary, most agile missile configurations do not have control over their speed, number of flight test trials is very limited and flight durations are much less than that of fixed wing aircraft. Therefore, the missile aerodynamic parameter identification problem requires a different approach and this study serves as a guide to these considerations. In this study, aerodynamic parameter identification problem of a supersonic missile, which has large and rapid Mach variations throughout its limited flight duration, is solved by using the Kalman filter algorithm together with measurements and flight path reconstruction outputs modified by the Wiener filter and a complementary filter. First, the mathematical structure of the n onlinear aerodynamic model in the identification region is obtained and the aerodynamic identification problem is simplified to a classical, time-invariant aerodynamic derivative identification problem. Then, Mach derivatives of aerodynamic terms are added into the simplified aerodynamic model to take into account the dependency of the aerodynamic parameters on Mach number. The resulting parameter identification problem is solved by using an adaptive Kalman filter algorithm. Finally, the suggested method is tested against a set of uncertainties by using simulated data generated from a high fidelity six degree of freedom missile flight simulation model. Since estimation method is vulnerable to drift in angle of attack, a first order complementary filter which is designed using a predefined but uncertain aerodynamic model is utilized to remedy angle of attack reconstruction problems due to instrumentation errors.

Numerical and experimantal analysis of flapping motion
Sarıgöl, Ebru; Alemdaroğlu, Hüseyin Nafiz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2007)
The aerodynamics of two-dimensional and three-dimensional flapping motion in hover is analyzed in incompressible, laminar flow at low Reynolds number regime. The aim of this study is to understand the physics and the underlying mechanisms of the flapping motion using both numerical tools (Direct Numerical Simulation) and experimental tools (Particle Image Velocimetry PIV technique). Numerical analyses cover both two-dimensional and three-dimensional configurations for different parameters using two differen...
Aerodynamic parameter estimation using flight test data
Kutluay, Ümit; Platin, Bülent Emre; Mahmutyazıcıoğlu, Gökmen; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
This doctoral study aims to develop a methodology for use in determining aerodynamic models and parameters from actual flight test data for different types of autonomous flight vehicles. The stepwise regression method and equation error method are utilized for the aerodynamic model identification and parameter estimation. A closed loop aerodynamic parameter estimation approach is also applied in this study which can be used to fine tune the model parameters. Genetic algorithm is used as the optimization ker...
Aeroservoelastic Modelling and Analysis of a Missile Control Surface with a Nonlinear Electromechanical Actuator
Mehmet Ozan, Nalcı; Kayran, Altan (null; 2014-06-16)
In this study, aeroservoelastic modeling and analysis of a missile control surface which is operated and controlled by a power limited, nonlinear electromechanical actuator is performed. Linear models of the control fin structure and aerodynamics together with the nonlinear servo-actuation system are built and integrated. The resulting aeroservoelastic system is analyzed both in time and frequency domain. Structural model of the control fin is based on the finite element model of the fin. Aerodynamic model ...
Wave drag optimization of high speed aircraft
Çıtak, Can; Özgen, Serkan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2015)
Supersonic flight has been the subject of the last half century. Both military and civil projects have been running on to design aircraft that will fly faster than the speed of sound. Developing technology and increasing experience leads to faster, more fuel – efficient, longer ranged aircraft designs. These vehicles have the advantage of shortening travelling times in the civilian role and performing missions with greater success in the military role. Aerodynamic design is the main argument of high speed a...
AERODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF SUPERSONIC FLOW OVER A SIMPLE AIRCRAFT GEOMETRY BY USING CST AND PANEL METHODS
Uğur, Levent; Turan, Sena; Gedik, Ramazan Kürşat; Adam, Ali Ata; Sezer Uzol, Nilay; Ertem, Sercan; Ayan, Erdem (2021-09-10)
In this paper, the aerodynamic properties of a selected aircraft geometry are calculated in supersonic flow condition using PANAIR. PANAIR is an open-source high-order panel method solver for irrotational and inviscid flows and it is more efficient than higher fidelity CFD analyses for the preliminary design process since it is faster and easier to use. A batch of supersonic analyses is completed for different wing/body configurations for the selected aircraft geometry and with various panel g...
