- A series of experiments were initiated to investigate the operation of a two-dimensional, hypersonic, airbreathing engine (scramjet) inclined at angles of attack to the freestream. The experiments were undertaken to obtain data for use in the Hyshot flight test program. Experiments on the Hyshot scramjet were under taken in the T4 shock tunnel. Experiments were made at a nominal total enthalpy of 3.0MJkg (exp -1) using a nozzle that produced flows with a Mach number of approximately 6.5. The conditions produced correspond to flight at Mach 7.6 at an altitude range of 35.7-21.4km. A summary of the flow conditions is included. The scramjet was tested at 0, plus 2, plus 4, minus 2 and minus 4 degrees angle of attack. Experiments were also undertaken at 2 and 4 degrees angle of skew.
