It is crucial to consider the fluid–thermal–structural interaction (FTSI) in designing the scramjet inlet for sustained hypersonic flight. To understand the aerothermal and aeroelastic responses of the planar hypersonic inlets under different flight Mach numbers and aspect ratios, a three-dimensional FTSI framework was developed and validated. After that, the FTSI characteristics under different flight Mach numbers and aspect ratios were investigated. The result reveals that the most obvious horizontal displacement happens at the cowl lip leading edge, whereas the maximum vertical displacement takes place at the compression-ramp leading edge. The FTSI improves the capture area and generates an additional compression angle due to the different thermal expansions between the windward and leeward panels. The thermal expansion in the spanwise direction causes the cowl lip to hump into an arc, and the maximum height happens at the midplane. The effects of FTSI on the inlet flowfield, the mass flow rate, and the total pressure ratio under different flight Mach numbers and aspect ratios were obtained. Overall, the FTSI can improve the contraction ratio, the actual mass flow rate, and the pressure ratio while causing the total pressure ratio to decrease by up to 14.64%.
Relaminarization is a reverse transition from turbulent state to laminar or laminar-like state as the turbulent boundary layer is accelerated, which cause the boundary layer easy to separate under the adverse pressure gradient. To investigate the mechanism of relaminarization flow control with air injection, large eddy simulations were performed for a turbulent flow over a convex curved wall at Mach number 3.0 under different blowing ratios. The results show that the acceleration has markedly reduced the turbulent characteristics including the number of large-scale turbulent structures and the turbulence kinetic energy values in the boundary layer for the baseline case. As the air injection is excited, the relaminarization is effectively suppressed. Meanwhile, the simulation reveals that the blowing ratio plays an important role in controlling the turbulence. The air injection with higher blowing ratio is more effective in suppressing the relaminarization under the condition that the jet-to-cross flow momentum flux ratio and static pressure of injected air are kept unchanged.

The ramjet/scramjet engines require the control-oriented model to predict the inlet flow field in less than a few seconds. However, it is challenging for these kinds of inlets which utilize curved shock waves to compress the air flow. In this paper, a reduced-order model based on the computational fluid dynamics, the proper orthogonal decomposition theory, and the radial basis function interpolation method is developed. After that, the curved shock waves dominated flow fields of a ramjet inlet under different angles of attack and free stream Mach numbers are predicted with this reduced-order model and compared to the full order computational fluid dynamics solutions. The results show that this reduced-order model can successfully predict the curved shock waves, the curved shock wave/boundary layer interactions, and the shock trains caused by a back pressure with high accuracies. The consumed time is only 0.11 s. The performance parameters are also predicted with the relative errors no more than 2%.
