VCE test bed engine for supersonic cruise research
Abstract
Various design concepts for a variable cycle engine applicable to a supersonic, mixed mission propulsion system which would combine the merits of a turbofan at subsonic operating conditions with those of a turbojet for supersonic operating conditions are briefly examined. In particular the integration of the variable area bypass injector with the core driven (aft fan block) fan stage is discussed and the technical benefits of the configuration are summarized.
