초록

극초음속 영역에서 운용되는 대부분의 극초음속 공기흡입(Air-breathing) 비행체들에 스크램제트 엔진이 탑재되고 있다. 스크램제트(Scramjet) 엔진에서는 일반적인 가스터빈 엔진의 압축기 역할을 흡입구에서 발생하는 충격파가 대신 수행하기 때문에 충격파에 의한 전압력 손실이 매우 중요하게 여겨진다. 본 연구에서는 전압력 손실을 최소화하기 위해 등엔트로피 압축면을 적용한 외부 압축형 흡입구의 설계법을 제시하고, 동일한 조건의 Busemann 흡입구와 3개의 cone 각도를 가지는 외부 압축형 흡입구를 설계하였다. 이후 전산해석을 통해 비설계 조건에 대한 성능 특성을 비교하였다. 각 흡입구 형상은 3단 외부 압축형 흡입구의 길이에 맞춰 truncation을 진행하였으며, 경계층 보정을 수행하였다. 등엔트로피 외부 압축형 흡입구는 3단 외부 압축형 흡입구에 비해 설계점에서는 우수한 성능을 보였으나 일부 비설계 조건에서는 3단 외부 압축형보다 성능이 저하되는 현상이 발생하였다.

Most air-breathing aircraft operated in the hypersonic region are equipped with a scramjet engine. In a scramjet engine, a shock wave generated at an inlet acts as a compressor for a general gas turbine engine instead, so total pressure loss caused by the shock wave is considered very important. In this study, to minimize total pressure loss, a method of designing an external compression inlet using isentropic compression surface was proposed, and an external compression inlet with 3-deflection angles and Busemann inlet were designed under the same conditions. After that, through computational analysis, the performance characteristics at off-design conditions were compared. Each inlet shape was truncated according to the length of the 3-ramp external compression inlet, and the boundary layer correction was performed. The isentropic external compression inlet showed superior performance at the design point, but under the off-design conditions, its performance was degraded compared to the 3-ramp external compression inlet.
