Direct injection into a cavity-based supersonic ramjet combustor has been recently
considered to be an effective way of stabilizing the flame over a wide range of operating …

Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes simulations using kw model are employed to explore a
single cavity flame-holding configuration of an analogous supersonic combustor. The flight …

The characteristics of cavity-based supersonic flow and combustion in a scramjet combustor
are investigated both experimentally and numerically. Cavities with depth D= 8 mm, length …

It has been found that the static pressure distribution along the axial direction of liquid

Future space transport vehicles or even high speed aircrafts are supposed to use air
breathing propulsion systems for their flight in a wide range of hypersonic Mach numbers …

Abstract Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes simulations using ak− ω model are employed to
explore a Mach 6 scramjet flow path in a notional direct connect facility. The inflow to the …

RAPID mixing between fuel and air during the short residence time with acceptable total
pressure loss is essential for a robust fuel-injection system in a scramjet combustor. At the …

THE scramjet is an engine being actively researched for use in aircraft and future space
transportation systems operating at speeds of about Mach 4 and above. At these flight …

The present study experimentally investigates the effect of inlet distortion on the combustion
process in a direct-connect test environment. A blockage by introducing physical intrusions …
