The 1998 (AP98) and prior versions of the aeroprediction code are based primarily on slender body and perturbation theories at low angle of attack and empirical constants that represent the nonlinear aerodynamics as a function of angle of attack, Mach number, aspect and taper ratio, and other missile geometric parameters. The primary data base upon which these empirical nonlinear constants were derived was based on the NASA/Tri-Service component data base taken in the 1970s. This data base was limited in body radius to wing semispan plus body radius ratios (r/s) of 0.5. A more recent data base taken by NASA and the former McDonnell Douglas Corporation, investigated other values of the parameter r/s of 0.25, 0.33 and 0.5. As a result of this new data base, the empirical constants in the AP98 were fine-tuned. This fine-tuning has shown the average normal force coefficient errors to be reduced by anywhere from 10 percent to over 40 percent on various missile configurations. The largest reductions in error were for configurations where the AP98 average accuracy was the worst. These new improved empirical constants will be a part of the next planned release of the aeroprediction code in 2002 (AP02). The AP98 average error on normal force coefficient of +/- 10 percent will therefore be somewhat better for the AP02.

A new version of the aeroprediction code (APC), the AP02, has been developed to address the requirements arising from advanced weapon concepts. The AP02 was formed by adding significant new technology and several productivity improvements to the previous version of the APC, the AP98. New technology added included 6 and 8 fin aerodynamics, improved nonlinear aerodynamics, improved pitch damping predictions, improved power-on base drag estimates, base-bleed effect on base drag estimation, improved axial force of nonaxisymmetric bodies and trailing-edge flap capability. Other improvements and productivity enhancements include an aerodynamic smoother, ballistic and three degree-of-freedom simulation modules as well as refinements for the pre- and post-processor for inputs and outputs of the AP02. Comparison of the predicted aerodynamics of the AP02 to AP98 and experimental data showed the AP02 to be slightly better than the AP98 in most cases that both codes would handle. However, due to the additional new technology incorporated into the AP02, many new options are available in the AP02 that are not available in the AP98. Therefore, the AP02 is more robust and, on average, is slightly more accurate than the AP98 in predicting aerodynamics of weapons.

New capability has been added to the NSWC aeroprediction code to allow aerodynamics to be predicted for Mach numbers up to 20 for configurations with flares. This new capability includes extending the static aerodynamic predictions for Mach numbers less than 1.2, improving the body alone pitch damping for Mach numbers above 2.0, and developing a new capability for pitch damping of flared configurations at Mach numbers up to 20. This new capability for flared configurations was validated for several different configurations in the Mach number range of 2 to 8.8. In general, pitch damping predictions of the improved capability was within 20 percent of either experimental data or computational fluid dynamics calculations. This accuracy level is believed to be quite adequate for dynamic derivatives in the preliminary design stage. These new additions to the aeroprediction code will be transitioned to users as part of the 2002 version of the code (APO2).

The NSWC Aero prediction code has been extended to the roll position of 45 deg (fins in 'x' or cross roll orientation) in addition to the roll position of 0 deg (fins in '+' or plus roll orientation). It has also been extended to compute aerodynamics of nonaxisymmetric bodies based on an equivalent axisymmetric body. In addition, the nonlinear aerodynamic loads have been distributed over the body and lifting surfaces to provide a more useful tool for preliminary structural analysis. Finally, new technology was developed to improve the prediction of axial force at angle of attack (AOA). These new technologies have been integrated into the AP95 and will be transitioned to legitimate users as the AP98. To make the AP98 more user friendly, an upgraded pre- and post-processing, personal computer interface was also developed. Comparisons of the new theory have been made to both experimental data and the AP95. Comparisons of theory and experiment show the AP98 to be at least as good as the AP95 and, in general, maybe slightly better. In general, average accuracy levels of aerodynamics are +/- 10 percent on axial and normal force and +/- 4 percent of body length on center of pressure. For nonaxisymmetric body cases, accuracy can be slightly higher than these numbers, although not enough cases have been considered to make a definitive assessment. While these accuracy levels are encouraging for a semiempirical code, they could be improved upon by use of computational fluid dynamics codes or additional experimental data or both to reduce errors due to limited data bases.
