Why hypervelocity scramjets? - Airbreathing effective specific impulse (Isp) - Increase Two Stage to Orbit (TSTO) staging Mach number Hypervelocity challenges: - Many, in all disciplines (e.g. materials), primarily due to high enthalpy flow - Most challenging propulsion system: scramjet combustor (combustor residence time ~ 1 ms)
