Cooling System for Ramjet Engine.

Abstract

This report describes a ramjet powered vehicle having a bleed slot in the subsonic diffuser, for the ramjet combustor, which supplies air to a turbine for supplying power to vehicle accessories. A vortex tube is provided between the bleed slot and the turbine to provide a cool air supply. Radar absorbing material is positioned adjacent ramjet inlet with a cooling duct provided to supply cooling air from the vortex tube to the ramjet inlet cowl lip to provide cooling for the radar absorbing material.
