Scramjet combustor analysis with the SHIP3D PNS code
The SHIP3D PNS code has the capability to perform 3D computations of scramjet combustors efficiently at flight Mach numbers of 10 and above, where the combustor flow is mostly supersonic. The fast solution times make skin friction and heat transfer calculations feasible and permit the utilization of multiequation turbulence models. Application of this relatively uncomplicated methodology to compute scramjet combustor flow fields and heat transfer is presented with particular emphasis on the treatment of ramp fuel injectors.
