Abstract

The shock-induced combustion ramjet engine is the most favorable air breathing propulsive system and a suitable option for high-speed flight. In this paper, theoretical analysis and numerical simulations were conducted to study the thrust performance of shock-induced combustion ramjet engines. Firstly, the propulsive performance of supersonic combustion ramjet engines was theoretically analyzed by using the Chapman-Jouguet detonation theory. Then, the aerodynamic principles of shock-induced combustion ramjet engines were put forth on the basis of the theoretical analysis results. Finally, a full-scale shock-induced combustion ramjet engine was designed according to the aerodynamic principles. Two-dimensional numerical simulations were conducted to simulate its combustion flow field and propulsive performance. The numerical results demonstrate the correctness and application of the theoretical aerodynamic principles.
