Abstract

A configuration of strutjet engine in ejecting mode was investigated with numerical simulation. The flow structure and features of ejecting mode in static sea-level and zero to 1 Mach conditions were analyzed in detail. The performance results show that the strutjet engine gets thrust enhancement with Mach number greater or equal to 0.7. It is concluded that the strutjet engine of this configuration can be used as the propeller of air-launched missile and the thrust enhancement in lower range of Mach number including zero Mach needs to be optimized with multiple elements.
