Demonstration Program for a Flexible Duct Valve for Ramjet Engine Fuel Controls.

Abstract

A demonstration program was conducted to develop a flex duct-type metering valve for use in the fuel control of ramjet engines for Navy missiles. This type valve has inherent advantages of simplicity, low cost, and high reliability that make it particularly attractive for this application. This type valve functions best when the leakage flow from the metering gap is bypassed back upstream of the fuel pump. (Author)
