Abstract

A solid fuel regression rate model was coupled to the quasi-one dimensional flow equations, and the flow parameters and the fuel regression rate were calculated together. The combustor diameter in next moment was obtained by plusing the local regression rate and the combustor diameter in previous moment. The unsteady flow problem of solid fuel scramjet combustion was decomposed into stationary problem every moment by solving the boundary conditions in each moment. This result provides a rapid methodology for performance prediction and design optimization of soild fuel scramjet combustor.
