Abstract: The projectile is disturbed by high-pressure gas during aftereffect period, which affects its exterior ballistic characteristics. The change of pressure on the base of projectile during the aftereffect period is studied for improving the accuracy firing table and optimized design of projectile. As computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation takes a long time, a theoretical model based on Prandtl-Meyer wave and isentropic flow is established for predicting the pressure on the base of projectile, and a modified model of pressure boundary estimation is proposed. The muzzle dates measured in a firing practice test were analyzed. The results show that the simulated results of the proposed model and CFD 3D model have less difference, but the calculating time of the proposed model is shorter, which is decreased from about 1.5 h to less than 1 s.
