Generalization of results of the computational modeling of streamline flow of a parachute by an undisturbed high-speed flow of gas using the method of large particles

Abstract

On the basis of analysis of the numerical solution of the problem of aerodynamics of a parachute using the method of large particles, a simple analytical method of determining the pressure gradient on the canopy and the resistance coefficient of the parachute in a high-speed flow of gas is given. The results of computations coincide well with the experimental ones.
