Basic Supersonic Ramjet Point-Design Performance

G. B. W. Young

ResearchPublished 1955

A study which may serve as an aid to propulsion engineers concerned with preliminary missile design in estimating ramjet performance. Thrust coefficients and specific impulses from Mach 1.3 to 5.0 are presented for a wide variation in engine component efficiencies. Hydrocarbon is the only fuel type considered.
