New approach to ramjet design suitable for very high speed flight developed by Armstrong Whitworth Aircraft; principle of study is that of spontaneous ignition of fuel by shock heating; this would make it unnecessary to slow internal flow to subsonic values, hence eliminate flame holders; way of obtaining multi-shock compression is explained; eight sided duct is needed to give 8-stage shock compression, requirement for good pressure recovery around Mach 5 or 6; flow characteristics of flat sided venturi configurations.
