Rocket ramjet wide-speed-range engine based on annular pressurization center body tail confluence

Abstract

The invention discloses a rocket ramjet wide-speed-range engine based on annular pressurization center body tail confluence. The engine comprises a center body, an air inlet channel, a combustion chamber with a concave cavity and a spray pipe. An embedded rocket in a conventional rocket ramjet engine is arranged on the outer side of the center body, the rocket gas and air are mixed in an annular mixing channel, and the contact area of rocket jet flow and the air is increased, so that the mixing distance of two air flows can be effectively shortened. Meanwhile, annular airflow is converted into central pipe flow through a central body contraction section at the spray pipe, the outlet area of the engine spray pipe can be reduced, and therefore the structural size of the engine is reduced, and the overall thrust performance of the rocket ramjet engine can be effectively improved by adopting the scheme.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of engines, in particular to a rocket ramjet wide-speed range engine that can work reliably at a wide flight Mach number. Background technique [0002] The speed range of the engine is an important design index of the engine. A wide speed range means a wider application range of the engine. The larger the flight envelope range, the more practical the engine and the wider the application prospect. Conventional ramjet engines rely solely on the effect of air ramjet, so when the flight speed is low, the ramjet effect of the engine is not enough, and the thrust performance of the engine is low. Conventional rocket ramjet engines require a long mixing section, so the weight of the engine is relatively large, and the thrust-to-weight ratio of the engine is low. When the Mach number is high, the length of the mixing section that is too long greatly affects the overall performance of the engine. Contents of the in...

Conventional ramjet engines rely solely on the effect of air ramjet, so when the flight speed is low, the ramjet effect of the engine is not enough, and the thrust performance of the engine is low

The conventional rocket ramjet engine needs a long mixing section, so the engine weight is relatively large, and the thrust-to-weight ratio of the engine is low. At a high Mach number, the excessive length of the mixing section greatly affects the overall performance of the engine
