Pterodactyl: Aerodynamic and Aerothermal Modeling for a Symmetric Deployable Earth Entry Vehicle with Flaps

NASA’s Pterodactyl project has investigated a deployable atmospheric entry vehicle integrated with a flap control system that provides precision targeting during reentry. The control system consists of eight flaps mounted at the edge of a heatshield that can deflect in and out of the flow. An aerody...
