Scramjet Combustor Development: A Review
Abstract: In the development of scramjet engine, the combustor presents the most formidable problems. Combustor is the critical section due to practical constraints of suitable material, mixing and flame holding in the short span of length. The complex phenomenon of supersonic combustion involves turbulent mixing, shock interaction and heat release in supersonic flow. The flow field within the combustor of a scramjet engine is very complex and poses challenge in design …
