Description
Summary:The article shows the effects of various aerodynamic parameters, the possibilities of their change are determined.The increase in the length of the lightweight stern, the diameter of the skirt and the thinning of the tube and skirt material improve the stability, but adversely affect the strength or aerodynamic properties of the product in question. The uniform distribution of mass over the nanosatellite volume is preferable in the process of acceleration with high-speed throw and exit from the railgun, but it negatively affects the stability in flight.
