SupersonicInletDesign

This Matlab script is for calculating the parameters of a supersonic inlet for a given conditions.

There are two parts to the code.

Part 1.

This part calculates:

• Area of the entrance of the inlet
• Length of the ramp
• Exit height

at the liftoff condition.

Inaddition, these conditions are calculated for the supersonic cruise condition:

• Mass flow rate at the entrance
• Stagnation pressure at the exit

Part 2.

This part creates graphs for:

• stagnation conditions at the exit of the inlet
• fractional stagnation pressure loss
• mass flow rate entering the inlet

at Mach numbers ranging from 1 to 1.8.
