Аннотация:Abstract—Steady supersonic air flow in a diverging aerodynamic channel of rectangular cross-sectionis numerically simulated. The channel represents a laboratory model of an air-breathing straight-flowengine. The aerodynamic model is validated using the experimental data for the case in which the zoneof volumetric heat release is absent. After the model has been validated a supersonic flow with a builtin zone of volumetric heat release was numerically simulated. Three-dimensional distributions of the velocity, temperature, and pressure in a steady supersonic air flow are obtained. It is shown that in the case, in which the volumetric density of the heat power of the source is equivalent to the mean total power of the discharge W = 10 kW, the discharge heats the gas up to the temperature T = 1700 to4200 K, which leads to flow acceleration without its thermal choking. When the thermal power densityof the source is equivalent to the mean common discharge power W = 20 kW, the gas is heated morestrongly, up to 6700 K, but then local thermal choking of the flow occurs.
