Scramjet combustion modeling using eddy dissipation model
In order to aid in the design of scramjet propulsion systems at high Mach number operation, this works considers the Eddy Dissipation Model (EDM) to describe the combustion process inside an open-access Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solver. Typical CFD modeling approaches for turbulent …

Performance of a Plasma Torch with Hydrocarbon Feedstocks for Use in Scramjet Combustion
… feasibility of using the torch as an igniter in scramjet applications. Operational characteristics studied included electrical properties, such as arc stability, voltage-current characteristics and start/re-start capabilities, and mechanical properties, such as coking, electrode erosion and …

Effect of Flow Distortion on Fuel Mixing and Combustion in an Upstream-Fueled Cavity Flameholder for a Supersonic Combustor
Typical studies of scramjet combustion employ as uniform a flowpath as possible. These studies are important to isolate the effects of a given combustor configuration. However, such studies tend to ignore the effects of a shock train created by the vehicle installation and that this shock train …

Experimental investigation of helium injection at a low downstream angle into supersonic flow
… of these jets as fuel injectors in a supersonic combustion ramjet (scramjet) combustion chamber was estimated. Both injection angle jets were made flush to the wind tunnel wall. The jets were injected into a Mach 3 free stream with a total pressure of 6.5 atm, a total temperature of 283 K and a …

Skin Friction Sensor Design Methodology and Validation for High-Speed, High-Enthalpy Flow Applications
… as that found in atmospheric re-entry vehicles, scramjets, jet engines, material testing, and industrial processes. Fully understanding and optimizing these complex flows requires an understanding of aerodynamic properties at high enthalpies, which, in turn, requires numerical and analytical …
