The future of hypersonic aircraft will be an incredible leap for current human technology and yet there are issues to deal with such as Hypersonic Speed Control. How can you speed it up and slow it down without losing control and having the entire ship lost?
We must modify the exhaust cavity and intake during changes in speed and atmospheric density to maintain control, keep the combustion going and prevent radical changes in propulsion power causing gyrations or instability leading to departure of flight and break up of the aircraft. We must do this otherwise all is lost: Aircraft, crew and the future and promise of hypersonic flight.
Our aeronautics design team at the Online Think Tank believes that this can be done thru artificial intelligent super-computer generated sequences which morph the inside surface and or structure of the intake and/or exhaust cavity. I call this departure in current aerodynamic design my:
Rocket Exhaust Cavity Morphing for Flame Geometry Modification Theory
And my objective is to increase efficiency, stability and safety in hypersonic aircraft of the future thru a combination of available levers using the current boundaries of known science in the domains of aerodynamic design, haptics, mathematic combustion theory, acoustics and develop a scheme for modification of aircraft, flame and the airflow itself.
If we are to see scram jet technologies work to our satisfaction or reliable hypersonic flight in our lifetimes, then we must be thinking beyond the wind tunnel theories of days gone by. Indeed we must rise to the occasion. Think on it, it appears we are on to something here.
