ABSTRACT:A computer study for predictins high-,speed launcher performance was conducted using a one-dimensional hydrodynamics computer code.This computer code uses the Lagrangian scheme, and is based on the "q" method as devised by Von Neumann and Richtmyer.These calculations provide understanding for the proper variation of the launcher parameters for optimization of launcher performance.A series of calculations for the 2-in. The results will be applied to the operation of the model launchers existing in the ranges at the Naval Ordnance Laboratory.
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.
