Rocket based combined cycle propulsion unit having external rocket thrusters

The present disclosure generally pertains to rocket based combined cycle (RBCC) propulsion units. In one exemplary embodiment, at least one rocket thruster is integrated with a jet engine but is external to the flow path of the jet engine, forming an altitude compensating plug nozzle. Since the rocket thruster is external to such flow path, the rocket flow from the rocket thruster interacts with the jet flow from the jet engine aft of the nozzle of the jet engine. Such interaction occurs without a significant performance penalty in the operation of the jet engine. In fact, it is possible that the interaction of the rocket flow with the jet flow may actually improve the efficiency of the jet engine under some conditions. Moreover, having the rocket thrusters positioned external to the flow path of the jet engine helps to avoid many of the problems plaguing conventional RBCC propulsion units.

The invention discloses a variable geometry side pressure type air inlet passage of a rocket-based-combined-cycle (RBCC) engine. Grading adjustment is conducted with the adoption of a variable geometry mode to ensure that the air inlet passage has good properties within the working range of 1.5-7 Ma. The variable geometry side pressure type air inlet passage captures the air volume by lowering the low Mach number to achieve low Mach number start of the air inlet passage; an auxiliary passage is opened by rotating a second pressure pushing plate; part of airflow is introduced into the tail end of a combustion chamber, so that the resistance of the air inlet passage in an ejecting mode is lowered, and meanwhile the airflow introduced into the tail end of the combustion chamber restrains a tail ejecting pipe from overexpansion to increasing thrust, and accordingly the performance of the whole engine is improved by a large margin, and the rate of fuel consumption in the ejecting mode is lowered. The auxiliary passage is closed during the operation in a subsonic-supersonic-combustion mode, and a lip opening plate is moved forward or backward to cover and shelter a certain part of a pressure difference overflow window, so that the flow coefficient of the air inlet passage and the total pressure recovery coefficient are effectively increased. The side pressure type air inlet passage has the advantages of being simple and easy to achieve, and it is ensured that the air inlet passage has good performance during the operation interval of the whole engine.

A Rocket-Based Combined Cyclic Ejection Modal Performance Experimental Engine

The invention discloses a rocket-based combined cycle ejector mode performance test engine. A main rocket combustor is fixed in the front of a secondary combustor; intake ducts are mounted above and below the main rocket combustor respectively; intake ends of the intake ducts are fixed in the rear of the main rocket combustor through support lugs; the rear ends of the intake ducts are connected with the secondary combustor through an intake duct flange and a second combustor flange; the secondary combustor is in a divergent straight structure; the main rocket combustor is fitly connected with the secondary combustor; a flue of a nozzle divergent segment gradually changes from round to square. The main rocket combustor is charged through the combination of seven-pointed star shape and inner holes by close-to-wall pouring; after ignition, the flow of gas in a main rocket is kept basically unchanged; variation pattern of the rocket-based combined cycle ejector mode performance along with flight Mach number and height is verified; the basis is provided for passage design. The rocket-based combined cycle ejector mode performance test engine is simple in structure and convenient to maintain, and the influence of gas composition upon engine performance and trajectory climb can be extensively researched.
