Abstract

This paper presents recent research work and achievement for
the scramjet and rocket-based combined cycle engines at
Kakuda Space Propulsion Center, Japan Aerospace eXploration Agency (JAXA).
From 2004 to 2006, we conducted several, large--scale experimental work:
1) HyShot
2) Combined hot fire tests of the RBCC combustors and its inlet
Moreover,
3) scramjet engine's hot fire tests in the world biggest shock tunnel
4) active cooling wall made with C/C
5) large scale CFD simulations for scram/combined cycle engines
