چکیده

7.1 ABSTRACT Two experiments have been conducted to acquire data for the validation of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes used in the design of supersonic combustors. The first experiment is a study of a supersonic coaxial jet into stagnant air in which the center jet is of a light gas, the coflow jet is of air, and the mixing layer between them is compressible. The jet flow field is characterized using schlieren imaging, surveys with Pitot, total temperature and gas sampling probes, and RELIEF velocimetry. VULCAN, a structured grid CFD code, is used to solve for the nozzle and jet flow. The second experiment is a study of a supersonic combustor consisting of a diverging duct with single downstream-angled wall injector. Nominal entrance Mach number is 2 and enthalpy is nominally that of Mach 7 flight. The primary measurement technique is coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS), although surface pressures and temperatures have also been acquired. Modern-design-of-experiment techniques have been used to maximize the quality of the data set.

Chapter 5: Review of Experiments on Ignition and Flameholding in Supersonic Flow

5.1 ABSTRACT Supersonic combustion data obtained at the low static temperatures appropriate for an efficient scramjet engine are reviewed. Attention is directed at the methods by which the fuel was ignited and combustion maintained. The cited supersonic combustion experiments are grouped under the six headings: chemical intiators; non-uniform flows; turbulent flameholding; combustion induced co...

Scramjet Combustor Development.pdf

An airframe integrated scramjet propelled vehicle has advantages for application to several missions. In its simplest form, such a vehicle will combine the features of quick reaction, low vulnerability to counter attack and better propulsion efficiency. The Supersonic Combustion Ramjet (SCRAMJET) engine has been recognized as the most promising air breathing propulsion system for the hypersonic...

A flamelet-based model for supersonic combustion

The renewed interest in high-speed flight has recently demonstrated the need for the development of hypersonic air-breathing propulsion systems, i.e., in which the ambient air is used as oxidizer. These systems have long been recognized as the most well-suited for hypersonic propulsion. Although a traditional ramjet is most appropriate for supersonic speeds (Mach 3 to 5), hypersonic speeds (Mac...
