They are investigating new configurations in collaboration with NASA's Hypersonic Airbreathing Propulsion Branch at Langley Research Center in Virginia. Propulsion for civil supersonic transports is taken up within the current context. In the last 5-7 years, advanced airbreathing hypersonic propulsion systems have been developed that allow the extremely high Isp of air-oxidized thrust up to around Mach 10 or higher. All current spacecraft use chemical rockets (bipropellant or solid-fuel) for launch, though some (such as the Pegasus rocket and SpaceShipOne) have used air-breathing engines on their first stage. The RLV is intended to test several indigenous capabilities, including hypersonic flight, autonomous landing, and powered cruise flight, hypersonic flight using air breathing propulsion. The RLV-TD will act as a flying test-bed to evaluate various technologies — hypersonic flight, autonomous landing, powered cruise flight and hypersonic flight using air breathing propulsion. Airbreathing Hypersonic Propulsion at Pratt & Whitney – OverviewRichard R. Apparently, Chinese developers have abandon to waste time on the hypersonic air-breathing propulsion system but choose a conventional rocket power system to realize Single-stage-to-orbit. Of strong nonlinearities, the use of improved turbulence models and unstructured grids in numerical simulations, the need for accessible validation data, and the refinement of mission objectives for Hypersonic Air-Breathing Propulsion (HABP). Various technologies, namely, hypersonic flight, autonomous landing, powered cruise flight and hypersonic flight using air breathing propulsion towards realising a Two Stage to Orbit (TSTO) fully re-usable launch vehicle. NASA is assembling a multidiscipline team, along with ATK of Salt Lake City, Utah to begin the investigation promptly. Most satellites have simple reliable chemical thrusters (often monopropellant rockets) or resistojet rockets for orbital 7-Hypersonic Airbreathing Propulsion (Aiaa Education) by William H. UNIT III HYPERSONIC AIRBREATHING PROPULSION 9. An orbiter with a drop tank that carries the boost phase propellant in the drop tank could use more conventional rocket engines rather than not-yet-developed hypersonic airbreathing engines.
