Title: Concept of a two-dimensional supersonic/hypersonic inlet with a non-conventional compression wall
Abstract: An inlet with non-conventional compression wall is designed in order to improve the performance of inlets constrained by its size. Comparisons by means of numerical simulation are made between this inlet and the normal two-dimensional ramp inlet. It is shown that at the design point the inlet with the non-conventional compression wall has the similar performance as the normal one, but has a better performance at off-design point. This demonstrates that for propulsion-airframe integration, this genus of inlet would be advantageous in keeping the stability of boundary layer coming from the forebody.
