Numerical simulations in obtaining drag reduction for projectile with base bleed

An artillery projectile in flight produces a low pressure area immediately behind the projectile which creates a force called base drag which lessens the velocity of the projectile. It is known that theoretically this base resistance can be reduced or even eliminated by allowing a stream of hot gas...
