Research on waverider configuration method

In hypersonic flow, as the increase of Mach number, thewave drag and friction drag also enlarge, and this will form a hysonic L/D``barrier''. But waverider can efficiently overcome this ``barrier''. Inthis paper we develop a wedge-elliptical cone waverider configurationmethod, study on front body-scramjet engine integration design, and create ahypersonic waverider. In terms of numerical result and wind test data, it isdifferent from traditional waveriders that this waverider can offer not onlyhigh L/D ratio, but also the uniform flow field with high temperature andhigh press which is requireed by scramjet engine.
