ABSTRACT |
The ALFLEX (Automatic Landing Flight Experiment) vehicle is a 37% scale model of a future reentry vehicle, HOPE (H-II Orbiting Plane), and was developed for investigating the horizontal landing capability of the HOPE. The flight experiment was carried out at the Woomera Airfield in South Australia in 199onsidered as key issues that affect the landing performance, and wind tunnel tests for predicting the ground effects had been carried out. For the purpose of validating the potential of the wind tunnel data for future designs, ground effect characteristics derived from the flight data and comparison with the wind tunnel data are given in this paper. |
