초음속 흡입구는 고속 비행에서 발생하는 충격파를 이용하여 제트엔진 내부에 유입되는 공기를 압축시키는 구조로써 주로 램제트와 스크램제트 엔진에 적용되어 연구개발이 진행되어 왔으며 현재는 미사일의 추진체 개발에도 응용되고 있다. 초음속 영역에서의 흡입구는 cone 모양의 스파이크 구조를 통해 경사충격파가 생성되어 외부에서의 공기압축을 먼저 거치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 EDISON CFD를 이용하여 외부압축 초음속 흡입구 주위의 공기유동을 해석하고 Cubbison, R.W.의 풍동실험 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 초음속 흡입구 주위의 유동을 2D 축대칭 압축성 유동으로 가정하고 EDISON CFD의 2D_Comp_P 솔버를 사용하여 수치해석을 수행하였다.

초음속 흡입구는 설계점에서 안정적으로 작동하지만 설계점 밖에서는 엔진성능이 급격히 감소하거나 층 격파 불안정 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 초음속 흡입구의 일반적인 특성을 파악하기 위해 2단 꺾임각을 갖는 외부 압축식 2차원 흡입구를 설계하고 EDISON_열유체 시스템을 이용하여 최종적으로 설계 마하수 2.5에서 작동하는 형상을 얻었다. 그러나 설계 마하수 이하의 영역에서는 충격파-경계층, 충격파간 상호작용으로 인해 유동에서 박리가 발생하고 최종적으로 흡입구 목을 질식시켜 아임계 상태로 천이된다. 이를 해결하기 위해 유동 제어 방법 중 하나인 bleeding을 이용하여 경계층을 제거하거나 유동의 박리를 방지하여 충격파를 cowl lip 전방에 안정하게 고정시킬 수 있었으며, 결과적으로 목적하였던 마하수 2.0에서 2.5에 이르는 작동 영역에서 강건하게 운용될 수 있는 초음속 흡입구를 설계하였다.

An axisymmetric supersonic ejector equipped with a converging-diverging diffuser was built and pressure at various locations along the ejector-diffuser system was recorded with emphasis on the supersonic starting of the secondary flow. In order to find the effects of the opening size of the secondary flow, a number of openings were used with a constant primary pressure. Supersonic starting was possible only for d/D, the ratio of the opening diameter and the diffuser throat diameter, less than 0.306. for larger values of d/D, the ejection begins at subsonic secondary flow condition. With the closure of the opening, the primary flow brings the normal shock downstream of the converging-diverging diffuser And the starting of the ejector continues even after the closure was removed.

Unsteady numerical analysis of an entire supersonic propulsion system from intake to nozzle was performed to study dynamic interaction between terminal shock in the intake and flame in the combustor. Both acceleration and cruise flight-modes were considered. Acoustic mode of the entire engine for both flight-modes were investigated by detail analysis of pressure fluctuation at each location of engine.

The performance of ramjet engine is closely associated with a supersonic intake. In this study, experiments and computational simulations were conducted to observe the internal flow characteristics of the supersonic intake. The supersonic intake which have self-starting characteristics was designed and manufactured. The flow characteristics was analyzed from the experimental results using the supersonic wind tunnel testing and computational results using RANS equation and Menter's SST turbulence model. The detailed visualization results were suggested for the pseudo-shock wave of stable operations and for the inlet buzz phenomenon of unstable operations.

A study on the performance design schemes of the supersonic air intakes applied to the supersonic air-breathing propulsion system(Ramjet/Scramjet) was conducted and for two kinds of air intakes, the preliminary configuration designs and the performance analysis models were established. For axisymmetric conical air intake and two dimensional rectangular air intake, the performance effects were assessed according to compression angles and shock wave numbers.

In this study, the Inlet/Isolator model experiments performed at Texas University were performed by 2-dimensional RANS computerized analysis. First, supersonic flow conditions were analyzed and compared with experimental surface pressure results, and the flow structure was analyzed by confirming Mach number distribution and numerical shadowgraph. Then, the inlet unstart condition was given by changing the back pressure, and the URANS analysis was performed to confirm the progress of inlet unstart.

Numerical simulations of flows in an axisymmetric supersonic inlet with bleed regions were performed. For the simulations, the existing code which solves the RANS(Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) equations and 2-equation turbulence model equations was transformed to axisymmetric form and bleed boundary condition was applied to the code. In this paper, the modified code was validated by comparing the results against an experimental data and other computational results for flow on a bump and over an oblique shock with bleed region. Using the code, numerical simulations were performed for the flow in the inlet with multiple bleed regions.

A Supersonic air intake model was designed for the high performance ramjet and dual-mode scramjet engine to operate at Mach 4 flight condition. The air intake was tested in the blowdown-type wind tunnel of Kyushu University to identify the internal flow characteristics corresponding to the flight parameters such as the back pressure, angle of attack and angle of yaw. Flow visualization was achieved by the Schlieren and oil flow visualization techniques. The intake performance was analyzed quantitatively based on the surface pressure and total Pressure measurements. The experimental results were compared with the computational fluid dynamics results. The present study exhibits the fundamental but rarely found experimental results of the high Mach number supersonic air intake.

A Numerical analysis of preventing pressure oscillation for the supersonic inlet of IRR at the boosting mode was conducted in this study. To reduce the fluctuation of pressure, the supersonic inlet was equipped with annular slit. By decreasing the entrained air mass, the amplitude of fluctuation and maximum pressure at the inlet were decreased while the frequency was increased. In case, the optimal trade-off value is obtained between frequency and amplitude, it is expected that the pressure oscillation declining method using the slit will be helpful in various boosting and transition mode problem for IRR.
