Abstract:

In the context of the continuous development of anti-missile technology, higher requirements must be imposed on missile maneuverability and fast response to improve the missile hit rate. In recent years, due to the advantages of short response time, no mechanical parts and wide working frequency band, the active flow control technology based on plasma synthetic jet actuator has become a research hotspot in the weapons science and technology and the aerospace field. Great application prospects have been demonstrated in the flow control fields of missiles, such as fast response aerodynamic control, transverse mainstream interference control, shock wave control, shock wave/boundary layer interference control, etc., which provides technical support for reducing the missile resistance and improving the maneuverability and fast response of missile. The principle, development and key problems of the missile plasma synthetic jet flow control technology are described and summarized based on the related literatures issued at home and abroad in the past 20 years and the research experience, hoping to provide help to the relevant researchers.

Key words: missile, plasma synthesis jet, active flow control, aerodynamic control, shock wave control
