Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quasi-one dimensional numerical simulation throughout an engine was carried out for detailed performance analysis. Simple scramjet engine model including inlet, MHD generator, combustor, MHD accelerator, and expansion nozzle was introduced. MacCormack method was employed for unsteady numerical simulations. Maximum combustor exit stagnation temperature was set for the operating condition. Engine performance was evaluated by inlet-to-exit thrust normalized by mass flow rate. Dependency of engine performance on flight Mach number was investigated. MHD generator bad successfully reduced the stagnation temperature prior to the combustor which enabled greater energy injection at the combustor. Therefore, by introducing the MHD energy bypass system, scramjet engine was shown to improve its thrust performance at high Mach number conditions. Qualitative agreement with analytical calculation was obtained, although the phenomenon of thermal choking in the MHD generator and the combustor was found as operating limitations. Strong dependence of thrust on channel configurations were also found.

This book was released on 2000 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prospects for realizing a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) bypass hypersonic airbreathing engine are examined from the standpoint of fundamental thermodynamic feasibility. The MHD-bypass engine, first proposed as part of the Russian AJAX vehicle concept, is based on the idea of redistributing energy between various stages of the propulsion system flow train. The system uses an MHD generator to extract a portion of the aerodynamic heating energy from the inlet and an MHD accelerator to reintroduce this power as kinetic energy in the exhaust stream. In this way, the combustor entrance Mach number can be limited to a specified value even as the flight Mach number increases. Thus, the fuel and air can be efficiently mixed and burned within a practical combustor length, and the flight Mach number operating envelope can be extended. In this paper, we quantitatively assess the performance potential and scientific feasibility of MHD-bypass engines using a simplified thermodynamic analysis. This cycle analysis, based on a thermally and calorically perfect gas, incoporates a coupled MHD generator-accelerator system and accounts for aerodynamic losses and thermodynamic process efficiencies in the various engine components. It is found that the flight Mach number range can be significantly extended; however, overall performance is hampered by non-isentropic losses in the MHD devices.

This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes the preliminary results of a thermodynamic cycle analysis of a supersonic turbojet engine with a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) energy bypass system that explores a wide range of MHD enthalpy extraction parameters. Through the analysis described here, it is shown that applying a magnetic field to a flow path in the Mach 2.0 to 3.5 range can increase the specific thrust of the turbojet engine up to as much as 420 N/(kg/s) provided that the magnitude of the magnetic field is in the range of 1 to 5 Tesla. The MHD energy bypass can also increase the operating Mach number range for a supersonic turbojet engine into the hypersonic flight regime. In this case, the Mach number range is shown to be extended to Mach 7.0.

Book excerpt: The propositions to use the MHD systems to control flow in a scramjet channel were put forward in development of the "M AJAX" concept. The paper 1, in which the basic principles for the MHD control in a scramjet were described for the first time in detail, was published in 1998. The main emphasis in the paper was put on analyzing the scramjet scheme with the control system composed of the MHD generator located upstream of the combustion chamber and the MHD accelerator located downstream of the combustion chamber, see the Fig. 1. The "Magneto Plasma Chemical Engine" title was used in the paper for designation of the engine. At present the title "Scramjet with MHD bypass" is frequently used for the engine designation. Perhaps the title is more obvious met to the scheme. It was shown in the paper 1 that the MHD bypass in a scramjet allows one to increase the scramjet specific impulse. In addition the functional relation which determines requirements for the engine subsystems, at which the MHD bypass leads to increasing the scramjet specific impulse, is obtained in the paper 1. In the subsequent papers 2-5 the propulsion was analyzed in more complicated physical model taking into account the problems of creation of nonequilibrium conductivity of flow in the MHD generator channel. In the papers the requirements for parameters of the magnetic system, the ionizer, the MHD generator and the scramjet, at which the MHD bypass increases the scramjet specific impulse, are formulated. Despite of the considerable progress in investigation of the propulsion the results obtained in 1.5 don't establish clearly the reason which is responsible for increase the scramjet specific impulse due to the MHD control. Probably the not full clarity of results obtained in the papers 1-5 is caused in the first place by the non-traditional approach 6, which is very useful for the system analysis but does not give the clearness of the results obtained, was used for the MHD systems7.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renewed interest in high-speed propulsion has led to increased activity in the development of the supersonic combustion ramjet engine for hypersonic flight applications. In the hypersonic regime the scramjet engine's specific thrust exceeds that of other propulsion systems. This book, written by a leading researcher, describes the processes and characteristics of the scramjet engine in a unified manner, reviewing both theoretical and experimental research. The focus is on the phenomena that dictate the thermo-aerodynamic processes encountered in the scramjet engine, including component analyses and flowpath considerations; fundamental theoretical topics related to internal flow with chemical reactions and non-equilibrium effects, high-temperature gas dynamics, and hypersonic effects are included. Cycle and component analyses are further described, followed by flowpath examination. Finally, the book reviews experimental and theoretical capabilities and describes ground testing facilities and computational fluid dynamics facilities developed for the study of time-accurate, high-temperature aerodynamics.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nowadays the potentialities of MHD technology to produce electric power in hypersonic vehicles are discussed widely. It seems very promising because of extremely high values of total enthalpy in hypersonic flow. So at flight Mach number M (at infinity)= 10 the total enthalpy of flow is approximately equal to 5 MJ/kg. Thus extracting only 1% from the flow enthalpy we will produce 5MW of electric power in the case when mass flow rate of air is equal to 100 kg/s. According to previous studies, the MHD technologies on the hypersonic vehicle can be used not only to produce electric energy but also to control the vehicle. In particular, the MHD bypass of energy in a scramjet improves the scramjet performance at certain conditions.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scramjet engines are the fastest form of propulsion that has been conceived, being capable offlying in a flight regime above Mach number 5. The concept of scramjet engine is not recent,as its development started more than half a century ago. However, a scramjet vehicle has onlyflown three times (by NASA), being the last one in 2004 and reaching a Mach number of 10.The working principle of a scramjet engine is the same as the subsonic engines: compressing,combusting and expanding air to produce thrust. Nevertheless, scramjet engines do not havemoving parts such a compressor or a turbine, as the flow at hypersonic speed is compresseddirectly by the inlet and the combustion is held in supersonic regime.In this study, a parametric model for the combustor and nozzle of a scramjet engine has beendeveloped, focusing in the combustion process. Under quasi-one-dimensional steady flowconditions, the properties at the exit of the combustor and nozzle are computed by calculatingthe composition of the gas at the combustor for different conditions of temperature, fuel ratio,pressure and velocity.Also, in order to assess the performance of the engine, a simplified inlet model is assumed.Finally, the results of this document are compared with those of other studies. Some possibleimprovements of the study are also included.
