LARGE EDDY SIMULATION OF RAMJET TO SCRAMJET TRANSITION
T. Nilssonš, C. Furebyš; šLund University, Sweden
To develop airbreathing hypersonic flight systems knowledge about the reacting flow physics in the transition regime between ramjet and scramjet modes is needed. Reacting Large Eddy Simulations (LES) of the direct-connect ram-scramjet experiment by Fotia & Driscoll [J. Prop. Power, 28, 83] will here be described. The LES results and the experimental data will here be compared and jointly analyzed.
