Experimental performance evaluation of a streamline traced inlet at off-design conditions

Scramjet engines used as part of a multi-stage space access system must operate efficiently over a wide range of conditions. This paper describes experimental testing undertaken to evaluate the masscapture performance, self-starting capability, and back-pressure limitations of a streamline-traced th...
