Abstract
In this present article, the use of a throttling device in the form of movable flap to study scramjet inlet unstart has been investigated numerically. The flap has been employed as an effort to simulate the rise in combustor pressure of the scramjet. Computational analysis for freestream Mach number and freestream pressure of and respectively, have been performed by a two-dimensional compressible CFD in-house Finite volume solver for perfect gas. Convective fluxes have been evaluated using AUSM scheme.Inviscidflow has been assumed for all the simulations. Particular point of interest in these simulations is the application of Immersed Boundary Method along the wall boundaries,enabling the use of structured grid for complex geometries. The results demarcate the starting condition of the inlet based on the flap throttling values. Comparative results in the form of Mach number and pressure contours are presented for different flap positions. The use of Immersed Boundary Method has been successfully displayed bysimulating a movable flap.
