액체 램제트 엔진의 특성은 흡입구를 통해 들어오는 유입공기의 상태에 따라 많이 달라진다. 흡입구에 들어오는 공기의 유입각이 일정각도를 넘어서면 유입공기의 왜곡이 심하여 정상적인 연소가 불가능 할 수 있다. 따라서 다양한 비행조건에 따른 램제트 엔진의 특성을 파악하기 위하여 외부 유입영역, 흡입구, 연소기, 노즐 및 출구 대기 영역을 함께 계산하여 유동 특성과 연소 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 흡입구는 마하 2.0을 기준으로 설계하고, 4각 덕트에서 완만하게 원형 덕트로 변화되는 확대관의 형상으로 비행체에 붙어 있는 것으로 격자를 구성하였다. 흡입구에서의 유동 조건은 비행체을 지난 유속이 마하 2.0과 2.2의 경우에 대하여 수치 실험을 수행하였으며, 비반응 유동 해석과 연소가 있는 반응 유동해석 결과를 흡입구를 포함하지 않았던 선행 연구 결과들과 비교하였다. 유입각이 영 일 때의 흡입구를 포함한 계산 결과는 흡입구에서 생성되는 충격파에 의한 손실로 총압력이 흡입구를 포함하지 않았던 선행 연구 결과와 차이가 있었으나 유동 특성에는 큰 차이가 없었다. 그러나 유입각이 증가함에 따라 흡입구로 유입되는 공기의 량이 감소하고 그에 따른 유동의 왜곡이 심하여 연소특성에 변화를 보여 주었다.

An unsteady numerical combustion analysis was performed to investigate the combustion characteristics of A Dual Combustion Ramjet(DCR) engine using a gas generator. According to a variance of the equivalence ratio of the gas generator, the flow pattern in the combustor was analyzed. A typical acoustic frequency in the combustor was observed by detail analysis of pressure fluctuation at each location of the combustor.

The flow and combustion dynamics in the ignition and ramjet sustainer phase of an integrated rocket-ramjet(IRR) engine are investigated. The physical model includes the entire engine flowpath, from the freestream in front of the inlet to the exit of the exhaust nozzle. The flowfield obtained from a rocket booster study is used as the initial condition for the present analysis, so that the complete operation history of the engine can be obtained. The analysis for the primary factor governing flame propagation during the ignition and the key mechanisms for driving and sustaining the flow oscillations are performed.

This paper presents a theoretical analysis of a ramjet and scramjet engine according to flight Mach numbers. The main objective of this study is to give physical understanding on the performance parameters and to provide a more unified treatment of the fundamentals of ramjet and scramjet propulsion, mainly based on analytical methods. The effects of flight Mach number, inlet characteristics, and combustion on the performance of ramjet and scramjet are analysed. The cycle analysis are conducted on both combustors with constant pressure and with constant cross-section area, on which comparisons are made. Also the optimal Mach number at the entry of the combustor is studied.

This is a reviewing paper on the ramjet development programs of the U.S.A. and European countries through the presented papers at the ISABE 2005 and Joint Propulsion Conference 2008. Interestingly, the programs which are developing now are only limited on the ducted rocket, neither liquid nor pure solid fuel ramjet.

Ramjet engine have been usually operated on Mach $1.5\sim3$ as the vehicle of supersonic cruising engine and studied about the higher performance above Mach 4. The research of Duel mode Scramjet engine which have duel operating mode of ramjet/Scramjet are in progress actively nowadays. This paper suggests the effect the flow characteristics and the effects of back pressure, angle of attack, angle of yow on the supersonic air intake on mach 4 through the Schlieren/Oil flow visualization, and pressure measurement on experimental model.

This paper investigates the off-design performance of methane-fueled air turbo ramjet(ATR) engine in subsonic flight speed range. The ATR engine was modeled and simulated numerically. Each component was modeled to enable their off-design calculation. Compressor operating point was determined by flow matching with nozzle, and turbine by work matching. The ATR engine exhibited quite different off-design behavior compared to the conventional gas turbine engine.

Recently many studies have been made for the development of propulsion system with wide range flight from supersonic to hypersonic. Dual Mode scramjet engine as a hybrid cycle with advantage of ramjet and scramjet has one combustor. It works under the ramjet mode (subsonic combustion) and scramjet mode (supersonic combustion) respectively. In this study, Experimental results of hot firing tests of dual scramjet engine designed on the condition of Mach 3.5~6 as a flight Mach number are discussed. The tests were carried out on a ground test bench under free stream condition of Mach 6 at 27.6km altitude. In the tests, the adopted design and technological solutions were verified and efficient operation of the dual mode ramjet engine with Kerosene combustion during 5 seconds was demonstrated.

An analytical study based on physical understandings and aero-thermodynamic theories was conducted to observe the performance characteristics and to derive the essential design parameters of dual ramjet(dual-combustion/dual-mode) propulsion for wide Mach number. The performances and operating limitations of the engines with two types combustors, such as constant pressure- and constant area- combustor, over various flight Mach numbers was investigated. Finally, the transition Mach number from ramjet to scramjet was carried out to optimize performance load balancing of ramjet and scramjet.
