Combustion scaling laws and inlet starting for Mach 8 inlet-injection radical farming scramjets
Abstract
This project has investigated the fundamental scaling laws for supersonic combustion in scramjets flying at Mach 8. Developing these laws is critical for successfully transitioning small-scale ground test and flight experiment data to the design of full-scale scramjet vehicles. To achieve this, the project has employed state-of-the-art diagnostics to investigate inlet-injection radical farming supersonic combustion in a shock tunnel over a wide range of dynamic pressures at flight Mach 8.
