Missile aerodynamics and thrust systems can be modeled quickly and accurately using Fluent's full-featured software. With robust numerical methods for transonic flows, and the ability to model flows that include both low-speed and high-speed regions, Fluent's software can predict the performance of thrusters, control surfaces, nozzles, and solid or liquid rocket motors. Plume analysis, including flow details required for infrared signature prediction, can also be modeled.
