Collimatrix Posted April 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 I am curious if the variable stator rings now common in gas turbines (ever since the J79) can achieve similar results to the compressor bypass valves in the J58. Ditto variable compressor bleed valves. LostCosmonaut 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturgeon Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Shock cone/inlet design for hypersonic engines is fucking maddening, I don't think I'll ever get it. I would be interested to see, though, what sort of benefits you could gain by using modern materials in something like a J58. Maybe "better" has already been done before, I'm no expert on the subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
