ADVANCED AIR BREATHING ENGINE STUDY

Abstract

This report summarizes analytical studies on supersonic combustion ramjet engines. The performance capabilities of components, such as inlet, combustor, and exit nozzle, are studied from theoretical considerations and their influence on the engine performance is examined. Turbulent mixing in combustor, nozzle flows with nonuniform entrance, incomplete recombination within the nozzle, and the influence of nozzle contour are included.
