A subsonic to Mach 5.5 subscale engine test facility
Abstract
The NASA-Langley Mach 4 facility, in which air-hydrogen combustion is used to heat the test gas, was modified to make the facility suitable for tests of ramjet-type models at subsonic and transonic, as well as supersonic, Mach numbers. The construction details and the instrumentation of this facility, designated the Combustion-Heated Scramjet Test Facility, are described, and modifications to enhance the test capability range from the subsonic/transonic and Mach 3.5 to 5.5 are discussed. Design diagrams and test result graphs are included.
