Book Description
Chemical kinetic calculations of the combustion time in a constant area scramjet combustion (Mo=7) indicate reaction times 0.00001 secs., and show that the combustion process is usually controlled by diffusion. The mixing process in concentric fueld/air jets is investigated by means of integral forms of the equations of motion and slow mixing requires about 50 diameter. Initial contraction of the slow inner jet is predicted by the theory, and verified by experiment. The simulation of scramjet combustion conditions by a shock tunnel is considered feasible. (Author).
