Abstract
An experimental research on supersonic combustion of kerosene in a model scramjet combustor has been conducted. Kerosene was injected normally into a Mach 2 by three types of methods. First, liquid kerosene was directly injected. In comparison with hydrogen, combustion did not take place at low total temperature or in the fuel lean condition. Secondly, “effervescent atomization” method was used. Effervescent atomization method could control penetration height and mass flow rate independently, and improve ignition limits of liquid kerosene. Finally, gaseous kerosene was used. While only intensive combustion mode and choke mode were observed when liquid kerosene was used, existence of transition mode was observed when gaseous kerosene was used.
