    The document discusses scramjet engines. A scramjet is a type of jet engine that operates through supersonic combustion of air without an internal subsonic combustion chamber. It differs from a ramjet in that a scramjet can operate at hypersonic speeds without a variable geometry inlet. The document describes the internal structure and combustion process of a scramjet engine. It provides examples of the SR-71 aircraft, which used turbo-ramjet engines, and hypersonic vehicles currently being developed that may utilize scramjet propulsion.

    What is a scramjet?
    A scramjet is a kinetic compression(ramjet)

    with a supersonic air through-flow

    Premixing process

    (1)

    CP1 : first crossing point CP2: second crossing point CP3: third crossing point c : mixing layer thickness

    Strong Interaction in CP1 : the growth rate(dc/x) of mixing layer starts to increase significantly after CP1 Weak Interaction in CP2 , CP3: smaller density gradient between fuel and air within the mixing layer

    The mixing/combustion efficiency is increased when wedge is positioned adequately.
