Combustion enhancement in rearward step based scramjet combustor by air injection at step base

Numerical simulations were performed to model the non-reacting and reacting flow behind a rearward step flameholder in Mach 1.6 supersonic flow with fuel injection at the step base. The combustor geometry was based on the University of Florida scramjet experimental facility. Turbulence was modeled u...
