Aerodynamics
Experienced professionals at AES will meet your engineering needs for aerodynamics, CFD, and fluid mechanics by combining classical methods such as wind tunnel test results and computational fluid dynamics.
Test Data
- We will help you apply test results from NACA, NASA, public and private universities, and corporations to your applications.
- With AES you have the added benefit of our personal involvement in many tests from low-speed through hypersonic flow regimes.
Our experience includes the following:
- Turboprop and turbofan aircraft design
- Cruise missiles
- UAV’s
- Smart projectiles
- Parachutes
- Mortar systems
- Fin-stabilized and spin-stabilized large and small caliber projectiles and those designed for shoulder weapons and handguns
- gas turbine engine exhaust gas flow and cooling airflow
- Air data sensors
In addition to aerodynamic testing, our experience includes live firing ballistic tests and aircraft-related in-flight tests.
