Flight Simulation of Boomerang Using CFD

Abstract: A boomerang thrown properly into the air can fly in an elliptical path and return to the point of origin. In this study, such a motion of the boomerang was numerically simulated to clarify the mechanism of the motion. The simulation was conducted by the double CFD method which is the coupling method of the computational fluid dynamics and the computational flight dynamics. We considered the case that a small flat boomerang was thrown with a translational and a rotational velocity, an angle of the translational… Show more
