Some ramjet and scramjet engines can even break the sound barrier, allowing aircraft to move at a hypersonic speed thanks to the engine's unique architecture. Let's look at the differences between ...

"The ramjet-scramjet is the Holy Grail of aeronautics in my mind," said project manager Joel Sitz. "If you go from ground to space, you need to use a ramjet-scramjet if you're going to do it in ...

Answer Geek: How Scramjet and Ramjet Engines Work. By ABC News. February 22, 2001, 3:49 PM <br> -- Q U E S T I O N: So, you explained how a gas turbine engine works. Pretty good job.

The ramjet led to the scramjet, which was designed to go as much as 15 times the speed of sound. Like the fastest combustion and even rocket cars, ...

I think it’s important to define and clarify scramjet and its relation to a ramjet. This is all discussed in great detail on pages on wikipedia and the NASA website.

Successful recentground tests of jet-fueled, ramjet/scramjet demonstrator engines by Pratt &Whitney Rocketdyne and Aerojet represent important progress towardflight-testing of three separate ...

More than 14 years have passed since the first X-51A WaveRider—powered by a supersonic combustion ramjet (scramjet) engine built by Aerojet Rocketdyne, now a part of L3Harris Technologies—made ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — A team at the Purdue Applied Research Institute (PARI), the university’s research and development center, is using state-of-the-art additive-manufacturing equipment to print a ...

This change allows scramjet engines to operate at higher speeds than ramjet ones. Scramjets can operate at Mach 6 and higher, with some tests reaching as high as Mach 10 cruising speeds when using ...
