A numerical analysis is performed using two dimensional axisymmetric RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) equations system on the transition sequence of the Integrated Rocket Ramjet and the unsteady reacting flow-field in a ramjet combustor during unstable combustion. The mode transition of an axisymmetric ramjet is numerically simulated starting from the initial condition of the boost end phase of the entire ramjet. The unsteady reacting flow-field within combustor is computed for varying injection area. In calculation results of the transition, the terminal normal shock is occurred at the downstream of diffuser throat section and no notable combustor pressure oscillation is observed after certain time of the inlet port cover open. For the case of a small injection area at the same equivalence ratio, periodic pressure oscillation in the combustor leads to the terminal shock expulsion from the inlet and hence the buzz instability occurred.

Transition sequence of rocket to ramjet was simulated numerically for a two-dimensional axisymmetric can-type ramjet engine. Multi-species preconditioned Navier-Stokes equations with $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence model and finite-rate chemistry model was employed. To calculate transition sequence, initial flow-field conditions for inlet diffuser with closed port-cover was computed first, and then that result was applied as initial conditions after port-cover opened. Terminal shock was developed as a result of increased pressure in a combustor due to combustion and ramjet operated at supercritical condition. For a smaller nozzle throat area, buzz instability was occurred. Strong pressure oscillations were observed as a result of forward and backward movement of terminal shock and those oscillations were not damped out.

Flows in a ramjet inlet is simulated for the study of the rocket-ramjet transition. The flow is unsteady, two-dimensional axisymmetric, compressible and turbulent. Double time marching method is used for the unsteady calculation and HLLC method is used as a higher order MUSCL method. As for turbulent calculation, $\kappa-\omega$ SST model is used for more accurate viscous calculations. Sinusoidal pressure perturbation is given at the exit and the flow fields at the inlet is studied. The cruise condition as well as the ground test condition are considered. The pressure level for the ground test condition is relatively low and the effect of the pressure perturbation at the combustion chamber is small. The normal shock at the cruise condition is very sensitive to the pressure perturbation and can be easily detached from the cowl when the exit pressure is relatively high. The sudden decrease in the mass flux is observed when the inlet flow becomes subcritical, which can make the inlet incapable. The amplitude of travelling pressure waves becomes larger as the downstream pressure increases, and the wavelength becomes shorter as Mach number increases. The phase difference of the travelling perturbed pressure wave in space is 180 degree.

통합형 로켓 부스터 램제트(IRR) 엔진에서의 점화 및 램제트 단계에서의 유동 및 연소의 동적특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 연구대상모델은 흡입구 전방 자유흐름 영역에서부터 노즐 출구까지 엔진 전체 유로가 포함되도록 하였으며, 로켓 부스터에 대한 연구를 통해 얻어진 유동장 계산 결과를 본 연구의 초기조건으로 사용함으로써 엔진의 작동 과정 전체에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구에서는 점화과정에서 화염전파에 가장 영향을 미치는 요소와 유동의 진동을 유발하고 지속시키는 메커니즘에 대해 연구를 수행하였다.

A numerical analysis has been conducted to study the transient flowfield during the transition from the booster to sustainer phase in an integrated rocket ramjet (IRR) propulsion system. Emphasis is placed on the unsteady inlet aerodynamics, fuel/air mixing in an entire ramjet engine during the flow transient phase. The computational geometry consists of the entire IRR engine, including the inlet, the combustion chamber, and the exhaust nozzle. Turbulence closure is achieved using a low-Reynolds-number two-equation model. The governing equations are solved numerically by means of a finite-volume, preconditioned flux-differencing scheme over a wide range of Mach umber. Various important physical processes are investigated systemically, including terminal shock train.

IRR의 부스팅 모드 시 흡입구에 발생하는 압력진동을 감쇄하기 위한 방안을 수치적으로 연구하였다. 축대칭 형태의 초음속 흡입구에 slit을 장착하여 유입되는 공기 유량을 줄여가며 흡입구 내부의 압력 진동을 조사하였다. 흡입되는 유량이 감소함에 따라 압력의 진폭은 감소하고 내부 압력의 최댓값 역시 감소하였으며, 주파수는 약간 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 흡입구의 slit을 이용하여 최적화된 압력 진폭과 주파수대를 얻어낼 수 있다면, 이 방안은 IRR의 부스팅 모드 및 천이 모드에서의 안정성을 높이는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
