About this project

In this simulation, it is aimed to calculate the drag coefficient of an experimental rocket. Although the rocket geometry used is representative, the drag coefficient can be calculated for realistic models by following the simulation steps. K-w SST turbulence model was used for simulation. For the experimental rocket, the speed was taken 270 m / s and a ninety-degree (not realistic) flight angle assumption was made.
