Aerodynamic Analysis Of Grid Fins Using Analytical And Computational Methods

Grid fins (lattice fins) are used as a lifting and control surface for highly manoeuvrable missiles. Grid fins also find their applications for air-launched submunitions. The main advantages are its low hinge moment requirement and good high angle of attack performance characteristics. Two dimensio...
