Abstract
This paper introduces a research on the control method design for the subsonic intake flow of a dual-combustion ramjet engine. To design the control method, the intake flow dynamic response characteristics, based on a designated flow condition and intake geometry, are investigated, and a control method concept considering the intake flow characteristics is established. Using a dynamic simulation model of a dual-combustion ramjet, control input/output linearized models are obtained such that a control loop design based on linearized models can be accomplished. Finally, from various control loop simulations, the performance of the control method, including its control loop stability, is evaluated.
