A numerical study was carried out to investigate the combustion phenomena in a model Scramjet engine, which had been experimentally studied in the University of Tokyo using a high-enthalpy supersonic wind tunnel. The main airflow was 2.0 in Mach number and the total temperature of hot flow was 1800K. Equivalence ratio was set to be rather higher value of 0.26 than that of experiment to investigate the effect of strong precombustion shock. The results showed that self-ignition occurred at the rear bottom wall of the combustor and combined with the shear layer flame between fuel jet and main airflow. Then, precombustion shock was generated at the step location and reversely enhanced the mixing and combustion process behind the shock. Due to the high equivalence ratio, the precombustion shock moved upstream of the step compared with that of experiment.

This paper describes numerical efforts to characterize the flame-holding and air-fuel mixing process of model SCRamjet engine combustor, where a hydrogen jet injected into a supersonic cross flow and in a cavity. Combustion phenomena in a model SCRamjet engine, which has been experimentally studied at University of Queensland and Australian National University using a free-piston shock tunnel, was observed around separation region of upstream of the normal injector and inside of cavity. The results show that the separation region and cavity generates several recirculation zones, which increase the fuel-air mixing. Self ignition occurs in the separation-freestream and cavity-freestream interface.

The mixing characteristics of a multiple transverse injection system in a scramjet combustor were studied with numerical methods. The distance among injectors on mixing characteristics were investigated. The three-dimensional Wavier-Stokes equations including k-w SST turbulence model were solved. It was shown that the mixing characteristics of a multiple transverse injection system were very different from those of a single and a dual injection system; the rear injection flow was strongly influenced by blocking effect due to the momentum flux of the front injection flow and thus had higher expansion and penetration than the front injection flow. The multiple injection system had higher mixing rate, higher penetration but had more losses of stagnation pressure than the single injection system.

Ramjets are capable of much higher specific impulse than liquid rocket engines for high speed flight in the atmosphere. Ramjets, however, cannot generate thrust at low flight speed. Therefore, an additional propulsion device to accelerate the ramjet vehicle to a supersonic speed is required. In this study, we propose a novel ramjet propulsion system with a $H_2O_2$/Kerosene rocket as the accelerator for initial stage. In order to test the feasibility of this concept, consecutive reactors was built; one for the decomposition of $H_2O_2$ and the other for kerosene combustion. Decomposed $H_2O_2$ jet was injected to combustor through converging nozzle from gas generator and over this hot oxygen jet, kerosene was injected by spay injector. Through the various test cases, hypergolic ignition test was carried out and steady combustion was achieved.

The effects of injector spacing s and injector diameter d on mixing are numerically investigated in supersonic combustor with perpendicular injection behind a backward-facing step. Simulations are reported for airstream Mach number of 2.4. Parameters are changed on following 4 cases to investigate the effects of injector configuration on mixing efficiency $\eta_m$. In the case of varying d or s, dynamic pressure ratio $Rq(=(pu^2)_j/(pu^2)_a)$ is also varied to keep bulk equivalence ratio $\Phi({\oe})Rq.d^2/s)$ constant. (l) Injector spacing s is varied at constant $\Phi$=0.5, 1, 2 for injector diameter d=6mm. In the case of $\Phi$=1, $\eta_m$ has its maximum value at s=24mm. The reason is that increase of $\eta_m$. , by widening spacing at Rq=constant competes with decrease of $\eta_m$ by increasing Rq at s=constant. When spacing is narrow, the flow field of vicinity of injector becomes two-dimensional because adjacent jets interferes each other. By widening spacing, air is easily entrained by three-dimensional effect. This mechanism also appears in the case of $\Phi$=0.5, 2 for d=6mm, and $\eta_m$. reaches its maximum value at s=24mm for $\Phi$=0.5 and at s=42mm for $\Phi$=2. (2) In the case of injector diameter d varied at $\Phi$=1 for s=30mm, $\eta_m$. has its maximum value at d=3mm. The reason is that decrease of $\eta_m$ by increasing injector diameter competes with increase of $\eta_m$ by decreasing Rq at d=constant.(3) In the case of s varied at $\Phi$=0.5, 1,2 for d=3mm, the injector spacing at which mixing efficiency has its maximum value is s= 18mm for $\Phi$=0.5, s=24mm for $\Phi$=1, s=24mm for $\Phi$=2. Therefore it is found that d=3mm and s=24mm can be optimum configuration over a range of $\Phi$=0.5~2.(4) The effect of h on the optimum spacing is investigated. s is varied for d=6mm at step height h=4, 6, 8mm. The simulation results do not show significant change on the step height.

A numerical study was conducted to investigate the combustion phenomena of normal start and unstart processes based on ISL's RAMAC 30 experiments with different diluent amounts and fill pressures in a ram accelerator. The initial projectile launching speed was 1.8 km/s which corresponded to the superdetonative speed of the stoichiometric $H_2/O_2$ mixture diluted with 5 $CO_2$ or 4 $CO_2$. Experiments with same condition except for projectile surface material demonstrated that ignition was successful with an aluminum projectile, but no combustion was observed in case of a steel projectile. In this study, it was found that neither shock nor viscous heating was sufficient to ignite the mixture at a low speed of 1.8 km/s, as was found in the experiments using a steel projectile. However, we could succeed in igniting the mixtures by imposing a minimal amount of additional heat to the combustor section and simulate the normal start and unstart processes found in the experiments with an aluminum projectile. For the numerical simulation of supersonic combustion, multi-species Navier-Stokes equations coupled with a Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model and detailed chemistry reaction equations of $H_2/O_2/CO_2$ suitable for high-pressure gaseous combustion were considered. The governing equations were discretized by a high order accurate upwind scheme and solved in a fully coupled manner with a fully implicit, time accurate integration method. The numerical results matched almost exactly to the experimental results. As a result, it was found that the normal start and unstart processes depended on the strength of gas mixture, development of shock-induced combustion wave stabilized by the first separation bubble, and its size and location.

본 논문은 새로운 개념의 초음속 혼합기인 벤트 혼합기의 형상적 특성에 따른 공력 특성을 연구하였다. 홀의 크기는 2 mm이며 혼합기 벽면에서 2 mm 떨어진 곳에 위치한 모델(case 1)과 혼합기 벽면 뒤쪽에 위치한 모델(case 2)의 경우 같은 전압력 회복율을 보였으며, 홀의 크기를 반으로 줄인 1 mm(case 3) 모델은 cases 1, 2에 비해 낮은 전압력 회복율을 보였다. 재순환 영역의 크기는 cases 1-3은 같지만 전단층 두께는 cases 1, 2가 case 3 보다 두꺼웠다. 재순환 영역 내 압력 손실의 경우 cases 1, 2은 case 3에 비해 낮은 압력 손실과 높은 속도 구배를 보였으며, 이는 재순환 영역 내 공기와 연료의 혼합을 증대시키는 요인이다. 재순환 영역 내로 유입 되는 유동에 의해 형성되는 박리 버블은 연소기의 전압력 회복율과 재순환 영역 내 압력 분포와 순환 유동에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 박리 버블 형성에 영향을 주는 유입 공기 유량이 벤트 혼합기 성능에 주요한 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있다.

소형 초음속 연소시험 장치 구축의 일부로서 형상 천이 노즐 설계 연구를 수행하였다. 원형의 연소식 공기가열기에 정사각형 단면의 초음속 연소기를 연결하기 위하여 MOC 설계기법을 이용하여 초음속 형상 천이 노즐의 면적변화를 산출하였다. 천이율을 조절하기 위하여 형상 천이 함수를 도입하였다. 3차원 전산유체 해석을 통한 경계층 보정과 함께 몇 가지 형상 천이 함수의 영향을 살펴보았다. 본 연구의 형상 천이 노즐에서는 일반적인 사각단면 노즐에서 모서리에 발생하는 압력구배에 의한 재순환영역과 이에 의한 노즐 벽 중심부의 경계층 발달이 비교적 작게 나타남을 확인하였다.
