Ramjet engine for propelling missile, includes tubular unit made up of composite material, whose lower volume is separated into two spaces by intermediate transversal partition wall

摘要

The engine has a tubular unit (7) made up of composite material, whose lower volume is separated into two spaces (9, 10) by an intermediate transversal partition wall (8). The space (9) accommodates a sustainer engine (11), while the space (10) accommodates combustion chambers (13, 14). An air inlet duct is fixed on the unit to pass combustion air across tubular wall of the unit. An independent claim is also included for a missile comprising a ramjet engine.
