In this thesis, a numerical simulation of a store separating from an aircraft has been studied and validated. A dynamic unstructured tetrahedral mesh approach is used to numerically solving the discretized three dimensional, inviscid and compressible Euler equations. The method used for computations of separation of an external store assuming quasi-steady flow condition. Computations of quasi-steady flow have been directly coupled to a six degree-of-freedom (6DOF) rigid-body motion code to generate store trajectories. Then the trajectory of the store after it's safely separation from the F-16 aircraft till it reaching the Earth's surface are presented and discussedusing MATLAB/Simulink platform
