ConventionalJet Engine
Scramjet EngineSupersonic combustion ramjets, or Scramjets,operate by burning fuel in a stream ofsupersonic air compressed by theforward speed of the aircraft.Unlike conventional jet engines,scramjets have no rotating parts.In normal jet engines, rotatingblades compress the air,and the airflow remainssub-sonic.
The supersonic airflow intothe engine is compressedmore as it enters the inletand passes through theengine. This increases theair pressure higher thanthe surrounding air.
Hydrogen fuel is ignitedin the supersonic airflow,with the rapid expansionof hot air out the exhaustnozzle producing thrust.
Rotating compressor blades draw in air and compress it.Mixture of fuel and air burns and expands in combustion chamber.
Hot, compressed air is forced out the exhaust nozzle, producing thrust.
