01 - Aircraft Design and Integrated SystemsAERODYNAMIC DESIGN THEORY AND METHODOLOGY FOR AN AIRFRAME-INLET INTEGRATED FULL-WAVERIDER VEHICLEF. Ding¹, J. Liu¹, W. Huang¹, S. Guo, Air Force Engineering University, China; ¹National University of Defense Technology, China This study develops a novel aerodynamic design method for airframe/inlet integration for an air-breathing hypersonic waverider vehicle; this new type of vehicle is termed the ‘full-waverider vehicle’ in this study. This newly proposed design method can effectively integrate the airframe and streamline tracing inlet while keeping the waverider characteristics of the entire vehicle intact. |
