To identify the detailed 3D flow characteristics of a model scramjet engine, a unified 3D numerical analysis was performed. The numerical domain of concern includes the entire flow path of the model scramjet engine extending from the intake to the nozzle exhaust. Turbulent models($k-{\omega}$ SST and low Reynolds number k-e with Sarkar model) were applied with comparison of experiment result. Intake side wall's effect on flow characteristics was analyzed in view points of flow quality at inlet duct and near the flame holder as well. The code is paralleled with multi-block feature using MPI(Massage Passing Interface) library to speed up the 3D calculation.

For the development of Scramjet engine technology, intake designing processes are investigated. The basic geometry is determined by the inviuld relation such as shock wave relations and geometric relations. Furthermore, bleed duct is installed for preventing boundary layer development and shock wave impingement. Performance of the designed intake is validated by numerical analysis. As a result, double- wedge intake showed better characteristics in total pressure recovery than single-wedge intake.
