ABSTRACT

The SPINNER computer program has been updated to compute aerodynamic

coefficients for a wide variety of spin stabilized projectile shapes.

Improvements over the original program are substantial as ogive radius,

meplat diameter and rotating band diameter are accounted for instead of

assuming mean values. Test cases are shown comparing the 1969 SPINNER,

the 1973 SPINNER and experimental data. Input instructions and sample pro-

gram outputs are given along with the 1973 program listing.

INTRODUCTION

The Armament Department of General Electric under contract to Picatinny

Arsenal has developed an empirical computerized model for predicting the

aerodynamic coefficients of spin stabilized ,rojectiles. The code name of

the new program is SPIN-73.

The starting point for the current study was the computer program

SPINNFR 70 which was developed at Picatinny Aasenal during the period from

September 1966 to October 1968. This program was modified by General Electric

in 196968 and 197071 to update the predictions of the drag coefficient and

also to perform a closed form dispersion analsis.

In general the method used during the development of the original

Spinner was as follows-

Basic projectile configurations were selected which were considered by

Whyte 68,70 to have well determined aerodynamic coefficients. Empirical equa-

tions and constants were developed, by a trial and error process, by which

the standard coefficierts could be adjusted for changes in total length, nose

length, boattail t.ngth and center of gravity.

The following limitations were and are present in the original program.

1., Nose length 1.8 to 4.0 calibers

2. Projectile length 3.6 to 9.0 calibers

3. Boattail length 0.0 to 1.0 calibers

4. Meplot diameter, 0.10 to 0.15 calibers

5. Nose radius, secant +100% to secant -30%

6. Rotating band diameter, 3.025 calibers

However as most projectiles in service and under investigation during

the period from 1966 to 196q in general fell within the above bounds the

limitations of the program were not considered very serious.

Since 1970 several programs have been initiated by the Army and Navy

which are considering utilizing projectiles with nose lengths of up to 5.5

calibers and boattail lengths of up to 2.5 calibers.

Also payload and fuzing capabilities of several small arms projectiles

currently under development by the Air Force, Navy, and Army have dictated

blunter ogives (large meplats) and near tangent ogives.

Rotating band diameter are also of larger scale on small arms than

corresponding shapes of large calibers thereby complicating the prediction

process.

Because of these known limitations and future requirements the need for

a revised SPINNER was indicated. Thus this current study was initiated in

August 1972.

Sears6 0 of Eglin in 1972 published a computerized curve fit technique

for predicting the drag of projectile. His results indicated improvement

over the original SPINNER in the area of tangent ogives and meplat bluntness.

A similar method to that used by Sears was employed in updating SPINNER.

In discussing the computer programs the 1969 version of SPINNER will be

referred to as SPIN-69 and the 1973 version as SPIN-73.

PROCEDURE

The most difficult task in the analysis of data is determining a

constant accurate model which will adequately curve fit data under all cir-

cumstances, whereupon predictions of results under a different sets of

initial conditions do not result in completely useless answers.

An example of useless results is shown in figure 15 where the pre-

dicted axial force is negative in the SPIN-69 program. When terms of

higher order polynomials are employed to obtain good fits one must be very

cautious when using these polynomials to extrapolate or even interpolate

data. These cautions are pointed out because SPIN-73 does employ higher

order polynomials.

The equations used for fitting and probable) errors i.i1 be covered for

each coefficient individually.

In general the data utilized with very fei exceptions was obtained

from reports published by the Ballistic Resea:ch Laboratory (BRL) and

Arnold Engineering Development Center (AEDC). No wind tunnel data was used

at all in the data bank. Wind tunnel data aas used to determine trends

and comparisons were made with the trends resulting data fitting.

The references utilized to collect the experimental data are listed

starting on page 22. Unpublished data from BRL, Picatinny, AEDC and GE

were also used. The method used to curve fit the data is described briefly

in Appendix A.

Equations of the following general form were used for all coefficients.

Definitions of VL, VN, VB, VCG, BD, DM, OR, and BOOM are found in figure 1.

effective way of deriving an empirical equation. By the trial and error pro-

cess equations of the above type were manipulated into a form which adequately

described the experimental data.

The "IF" statements are required to circumvent the need for higher order

polynomials in the equations. In this manner only linear extrapolation and

interpolations are allowed on the fringes of the program capabilities. This

should prevent completely erroneous estimates.

The dispersion (DISP) is the radius in mils of a circle which a projectile

will impact in a vertical plane when disturbed to a first maximum yaw angle of

5 degrees or less. The basis for this calculation is derived in Reference 71.

The time step (DELT) shown will provide 20 integrations per nutation

cycle. This is entirely adequate for a 4th Order Range Kutta integrator.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

The results of several test cases are presented in Figures 2 thru 15.

Plotted are experimental points, SPIN-69 and SPIN-73 results. Tabulated

outputs of SPIN-73 are shown as tables 2 thru 15.

The following ranges of parameters are demonstrated by the test cases.

Total length 3.8 thru 10.0 calibers

Nose length 1.6 thru 5.5 calibers

Boattail length 0.0 thru 1.0 calibers

Ogive radius tangent thru conical

Meplat diameter 0.0 thru 0.26 calibers

Band diameter 1.00 thru 1.05 calibers

In general the coz relations between SPIN-73 and the experimental data

is very good with noticeable improvements over SPIN-69. Most of the effort

during this current study has been directed at the Axial Force and Pitching

Moment correlations as these two coefficients are by far the most accurately

determined during the experimental process. Mach work still remains to be

done on these coefficients in terms of defining a more adequate empirical

model.

The most poorly determined coefficients remain the Magnus and damping.

It is this author's opinion that the SPIN-73 improvement in these the cal-

culations is negligible. While some new data has been published since 1968,

in general data was previously available on similar shapes. For example

the projectiles refered to as the XM380 and XM549 were experimentally

investigated long ago as the T388 and T387. This data was available in 1967

and had been included in the original (SPIN-69) program.

The bulk of the data published by AEDC through calendar year 1972 is

suspect as far as the Magnus and damping coefficient are concerned because

the effect on lineai theory reductions of a slowly varying pd/2V was not taken

into account.

This author also found in several instances as did Sears that the

geometric description of the projectiles under test were not available

either in the data reports or the data files.

The probable errors to the experimental data of the SPIN-73 empirical

equations are shown in Table 1. The number of data points used to compute

the probable rror is shown in parenthesis.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The SPIN-73 program has been shown through test cases to be more accurate

than the SPLN-69 program.

The updating rcf SPIN-73 should be continued as new data is accumulated.

Records should be kept of shortcomings and extremely poor predictions.

Data should be more carefully reported with respect to actual configura-

tion tested.

CURVE FIT TECHNIQUE

The method used to perform least squares fits to the experimental

data using the empirical equations was a GE Time Sharing computer program

code name LSQMM. This program was utilized with the GE415 computer at

the Armament Systems Department. The brief description starting or the

next page of this program was extracted from the following reference.

The SPINNEI. corputer program has been updated to compute aerodynamiccoe-1ffcients tb'r a wide varict:, o-f spin stabil2zed projectile shapes.Improvemerts ovolt the original program are substantial as ogiveradius, met-iat. di:moe_r and rctating band diameter are account-' forinstead of assumru"q mear 'iia. Test cases are shown compar the1969 SPINNER, the _1973 .EPIN1,NER and experimental data. Input instruc-tions ard s-imple >rograim uuitputs are given along with the 1973 programnlisttnq.
