A summary is presented of research progress in the design and technology of hypersonic air
intakes and variable-geometry turbine based combined cycle (TBCC) intakes. Development …

Waverider is expected to break the lift-to-drag ratio constraint in the hypersonic flight
condition and it is commonly been studied as the forebody of the cruise vehicle. In this …

The aerodynamic shape of the hypersonic forebody/inlet integrated vehicle is usually
designed according to the inviscid flow. However, due to the effect of air viscosity, there is a …

Mode transition control is a critical issue of Turbine-Based-Combined Cycle (TBCC) engines
when the primary thrust providers change from gas turbine engines to ramjets/scramjets …

Direct numerical simulation of the Navier–Stokes equations is carried out to investigate the
interaction of a conical shock wave with a turbulent boundary layer developing over a flat …

The detailed design steps and the idea of connecting M-flow and truncated Busemann flow
are given in this paper. A new improved method is proposed to effectively reduce the size of …

A novel Bump-integrated three-dimensional internal waverider inlet (IWI) design method is
presented for high-speed inlet/forebody integration. The low-kinetic-energy (boundary layer) …

Ramjet propulsion is commonly preferred to power supersonic and hypersonic vehicles for
cruising faster than Mach 3. This is an elegant solution owing to the lean architecture which …

Abstract A RANS (Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulation) study is performed on an
internal duct at a free-stream Mach number 4.0, to investigate the internal conical shock …

As part of our efforts to study the hysteresis characteristic and formation mechanism for a
variable geometry dual mode combustor, a series of geometry path continuous adjustment …
