A numerical study of hypersonic propulsion/airframe integration problemA numerical analysis procedure useful in the propulsion-airframe integration problem has been established. Flow around a generic hypersonic vehicle forebody is solved using Parabolized Navier-Stokes equations and Thin Layer Navier-Stokes equations. Forebody cross sectional geometry corresponds to a two-ellipse configuration. Effect of forebody geometry on the flow structure, especially at the engine inlet location, is analyzed.
