There are three typical configurations for integrating the scramjet into the airframe of aerospace planes. They are (1) the whole engine is on the windward ramp surface of the airframe, (2) the engine is located downstream of the forebody ramp where the surface of the airframe is parallel to the airframe axis, and (3) the inlet entrance is on the ramp surface with the following engine parts parallel to the airframe axis. To examine the effect of the integrating forms on the engine performance, several types of the inlet models were testing in a wind tunnel, and simulations on the scramjet engine and the flight of the aerospace plane were conducted.
