Abstract

The Air-breathing Hypersonic Vehicle (AHV) can meet the futuristic goals of rapid global travel, to Low-Earth Orbit and into space in near-term decades. This paper presents the study of the trim and stability characteristics of the 3DOF longitudinal model of the generic AHV. Longitudinal 3DOF AHV simulation is developed with the aerodynamic model for trim analysis considering the complete flight envelope for Mach number from M=0 to 24. Dynamic model simulation of the 3DOF AHV is performed for the trim conditions and stability of the AHV flight for the complete envelope. Bifurcation Analysis is implemented with the longitudinal 3DOF AHV model for trim analysis and stability for the complete AHV flight envelope.
