  • Using the T3 free-piston shock tunnel in ANU, the cavity frequency and flow characteristics of no mass-injection, inclined mass-injection before the cavity, parallel or reverse mass-injection in the cavity are investigated in the case of Mach 3.7 inflow condition. No mass-injection doesn't have the harmonic frequencies but has high amplitude of pressure spectrum at 10 kHz. Inclined mass-injection attenuates the cavity flow fluctuation as disturbing the shear layer reflection at the trailing edge. Parallel mass-injection flow reflects at the trailing edge of the cavity directly hence, increases the cavity flow fluctuation at high injection pressure.

  • Numerical analysis was performed on the shock wave-boundary layer interaction generated in the internal flow path of the curved interstage of the scramjet engine flight test vehicle. For numerical analysis, the turbulence model k-ω SST was used in the compressibility Raynolds Averaged Navier Stokes(RANS) equation. Representatively, the separation bubbles on the upper wall of the nozzle, the interaction between the concave shock wave and the boundary layer, and the shock wave-shock wave interaction at the edge were captured. The analysis result visualizes the shock wave-boundary layer interaction of the curved internal flow path to enhance understanding and suggest design considerations.

  • Scaled model of a dual-mode ramjet engine with large backward-facing step, as a component of the rocket-based combined cycle engine, was designed. Design parameters were derived for this engine with the consideration of application for the rocket-based combined cycle engine. Design methodology was established for these design parameters. The design was partially verified through numerical study. Flow characteristics of the dual-mode ramjet engine with large backward-facing step was investigated experimentally. The design methodology for relevant design parameters established in this study was verified as feasible.

  • A method for the mixing augmentation of the transverse injection of fuel in a Scramjet combustor is suggested. Based on the fact that the main factor controlling the mixing characteristics in transverse injection is the effective back-pressure (the pressure around the injection hole) it is tried to make a flow expansion near the injection port in order to reduce effective back-pressure. A three dimensional Navier-Stokes code adopting the upwind method of Roe#s flux difference splitting scheme is used. The k-w SST turbulence model turbulence model is used to calculate the turbulent viscosity. It is shown that the reducing of the effective back-pressure make it possible to increase the penetration distance and to increase the mixing rate without excessive losses of stagnation pressure. Also, it is shown that the streamwise vorticity generated by baroclinic torque has great influences on the mixing process.

  • 차세대 제트 추진기관으로 주목받고 있는 스크램제트 엔진의 핵심은 연소기 내부에서의 성공적인 초음속 연소를 필요로 한다. 초음속 연소는 공기-연료 혼합(fuel-air mixing)의 정도에 따라 연소효율이 영향을 받게 된다. 공동형 화염 보염기(cavity flameholder)는 재순환 영역(recirculation zone)을 생성하여 연료 혼합의 효율을 높여 지속적인 초음속 연소가 진행될 수 있는 시간을 제공한다. 본 연구에서는 EDISON 전산유체역학 소프트웨어를 이용하여 공동형 화염 보염기를 지나는 초음속 유동의 재순환 영역과 전압력 변화에 대한 전산 해석을 수행하였다. 초기 형상을 생성하여 유동 해석을 수행한 후, 3개의 형상 변수에 대한 매개 변수 연구를 통하여 공동의 형상과 위치에 따른 재순환영역의 제어가 가능함을 확인하였다.

  • A high-resolution numerical study is carried out to investigate the transient process of the combustion and the shock-train developments in an ethylene-fueled direct-connect dual-mode scramjet combustor. Following the fuel injection, air-throttling is applied at the expansion part of the combustor to provide mass addition to block the flow to subsonic speed. The ignition occurs several ms later when the fuel and air are mixed sufficiently. The pressure build up by the combustion leads to the shock train formation in the isolator section that advances to the exit of the intake nozzle. Then, the air-throttling is deactivated and the exhaust process begins and the situation before the air-throttling is restored. Present simulation shows the detailed processes in the dual-mode scramjet combustor for better understanding of the operation regimes and characteristics.

  • A design optimization method is applied for the flow path design of RBCC engine, an important factor for the determining the propulsion performance operating at air-breathing mode. A design optimization was carried out to maximize the specific impulse of the RBCC engine by using a genetic algorithm based on the Kriging model. Results are analyzed using ANOVA and SOM. Design conditions of ramjet and scramjet mode are selected as Mach number 4 at 20 km altitude and Mach number 7 at 30 km, respectively. The optimized design presents that the specific impulse is increased by 7% and 10% on each condition than the baseline design.

  • DARPA's hypersonic propulsion program VULCAN is aimed for development of Mach 4+ capable engine by combining current production turbofan engine such as F119 with CVC (Constant Volume Combustion) engine. Final goal is a TBCC(Turbo-based Combined Cycle) engine by combining with dual mode ramjet/scramjet engine. CVC is a common designation of new concept of high efficiency engines, such as Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) or Continuous Detonation Engine (CDE), which use the detonation as a combustion mechanism. Present paper introduces the internationally collaborative research activities carried out in Aerospace Combustion and Propulsion Laboratory of the department of Aerospace Engineering of the Pusan national University.
