All current spacecraft use chemical rockets (bipropellant or solid-fuel) for launch, though some (such as the Pegasus rocket and SpaceShipOne) have used air-breathing engines on their first stage. Elements of Spacecraft Design - Charles D. Most satellites have simple reliable chemical thrusters (often monopropellant rockets) or resistojet rockets for orbital 7-Hypersonic Airbreathing Propulsion (Aiaa Education) by William H. 6-Rocket and Spacecraft Propulsion: Principles, Practice and New Developments (Springer Praxis Books / Astronautical Engineering) by Martin J.L. Airbreathing hypersonic propulsion entered a new era in 2010. In the last 5-7 years, advanced airbreathing hypersonic propulsion systems have been developed that allow the extremely high Isp of air-oxidized thrust up to around Mach 10 or higher. Airbreathing Hypersonic Propulsion at Pratt & Whitney – OverviewRichard R. Hypersonic Air-Breathing Propulsion. Designed to conduct research, development, and acceptance testing of hypersonic airbreathing propulsion systems, the Hypersonic Tunnel Facility (HTF) is a fully self-contained facility. Carry more payloads: An advantage of hypersonic air breathing (typically scramjet) vehicle is avoiding or at least reducing the need for carrying oxidizer.75% of the entire assembly weight is liquid oxygen. Propulsion for civil supersonic transports is taken up within the current context. I found his book to be a great resource for information on the current progress of hypersonic air-breathing propulsion engines. Bertin Hypersonic Airbreathing Propulsion - William H. That's the idea behind a different propulsion system called "SCRAMJET", or Supersonic Combustion Ramjet: The oxygen needed by the engine to combust is taken from the atmosphere passing through the vehicle, instead of from a tank onboard. Brown Flight Testing of Fixed Wing Aircraft - Ralph D. They are investigating new configurations in collaboration with NASA's Hypersonic Airbreathing Propulsion Branch at Langley Research Center in Virginia. Kimberlin Hypersonic Aerothermodynamics - John J. NASA is assembling a multidiscipline team, along with ATK of Salt Lake City, Utah to begin the investigation promptly.
