This paper presents a parametric study of a scramjet propulsion system integrated into a waverider lifting-body configuration. The analysis explores the effect of inlet geometry, internal cross-section-area distribution of the combustor section, the distribution of the heat release of the reacting mixture, the heat transfer, and the friction on the performance of the propulsion system. The Mach number, temperature, and pressure distributions within the scramjet model are studied parametrically, and the effects on the thrust are obtained. The results provide insight on the design concepts and problems that might arise for a given internal-flow configuration.
