Experimental Research on Exhaust Plume Radiation of Scramjet

doi:10.3969/j.issn.1000-1093.2016.09.015

Abstract

Abstract: The radiation measurement methods and test of scramjet exhaust plume are introduced. The exhaust plume radiation intensity and spectrum from 1m scale level scramjet are obtained for the aerial kerosene fuel under the test state of Mach number 6 with equivalent fuel-to-air ratio of 0.8. The radiation intensities of near ultraviolet band, near ultraviolet to visible light band, and mid-infrared band are reduced slowly along the exhaust direction near the exit of the scramjet. The high frequency instability and low frequency stability of radiation intensity reflect the micro instability and macro stability of combustion. According to the spectrum of plume, the radiation energy concentrates around the band of 4.364 3 μm. The main radiation component is identified to be CO₂.

Key words: basic disciplines of aerospace science and technology, scramjet, exhaust plume, radiation intensity, spectrum
