Chinese researchers have reportedly developed a new type of afterburner for scramjet engines that could achieve Mach 6 at ...

The fuel-air mixture is burned ... move at a speed of at least Mach 3 for a ramjet engine to work correctly. The scramjet — or "supersonic combustion ramjet" — engine is an innovation on ...

There aren’t even any moving parts inside of a scramjet, it’s little more than a carefully shaped tube with fuel injectors and ignitors in it. Unfortunately, pulling it off in practice is ...

China’s scientists developed a scramjet breakthrough, doubling thrust for hypersonic aircraft, enhancing speed, ...

Instead, the scramjet, sometimes called an "air-breathing" engine, burns hydrogen fuel in a stream of fast-moving, compressed air created by the forward motion of the aircraft. Hot exhaust ...

Researchers have developed an innovative secondary combustion technique to help China win the global hypersonic race.

The results, published in China’s Journal of Experiments in Fluid Mechanics, suggest combustion rates 1,000 times faster than traditional scramjet ... and ignites the fuel-air mix so violently ...

Western’s Parkview Scramjet Combustion Test Lab (PSCTL) will be a small-scale mobile and modular facility to conduct research on fuel combustion in supersonic flows ranging from Mach 1.5-3.0. Overall ...
