Abstract

Pressure oscillations in a side-dump ramjet engine have been studied, using a one-dimensional numerical analysis. The engine is treated in two parts; the inlet section, including a region of two-phase flow downstream of fuel injection, and a dump combustor. Each region is treated separately and matched with the other. Following calculation of the mean flow field, the oscillatory characteristics of the engine are determined by its reponse to a disturbance imposed on the mean fiow. Results have shown favorable comparison with experimental data obtained at the Naval Weapons Center, China Lake.
