This study aims to analyse the flow characteristics and drag profiles of six different fin geometries - clipped delta, swept, trapezoidal, elliptical, rectangular, and triangular - for subsonic, transonic, and supersonic flow at different Mach numbers. By comparing the aerodynamic characteristics of these fin variants, the research aims to identify the most efficient fin geometry for each Mach regime. This study will benefit missile designers in selecting the most suitable fin geometry for their mission by providing information on the efficiency of each fin geometry at different Mach numbers. The findings of this research will enable the development of more efficient and effective fins for missile models
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
