Aerolab estimates Drag, Lift and Center of Pressure for rockets flying at velocities up to 8 Mach. It also estimates the rockets Center of Gravity and Moments of Inertia and performs stability analysis within the entire velocity range.

MicroTunnel analyzes 2-D subsonic, transonic, and supersonic aerodynamic flow (Mach 0.1 to 10) over multi-element configurations on an 800x600 Cartesian cut-cell mesh. Flow visualization is provided through color contour plots of local Mach number, density, pressure, and temperature, including streamline plots. Shock waves are easily captured!
