Abstract:
A Projectile Continuous Power Module (PCMP) is configured to take incoming or oncoming airflow of an inflight projectile and direct the airflow to a turbine for converting the airflow into electrical power. The PCMP is mounted within or otherwise coupled to an airframe of the projectile. The PCMP is coupled to the projectile in a manner such that an air inlet of the projectile is positioned to capture incoming or oncoming boundary layer airflow as the projectile travels.
