ronatu, замечательные картинки. Главное, надпись.

Картинка вставляется в отдельное окно браузера, нажимается кнопка рилода... и voila.

А как это должно выглядить в ПРАВИЛЬНОМ браузере? Потому как в эксплорере всё таже картинка

Вроде бы 10М достигла.
Нет ли у кого фотографии девайса?

Today's flight rocketed to an altitude of 530km, and reached Mach 10 during re-entry," Mr Lindsay said.

Интересно, на баллистическом участке двигатель работал?

Неработал.

На возвратном участке траектории при достижении высоты 35км водород подается в в сверзвуковую камеру сгорания и начинается эксперимент. Эксперимент длятся 5сек пока аппарат не достигнет высоты 23км.

Нашел несколько ссылок на X-43С

The X-43C vehicle has a larger airframe than the X-43A. The X-43C is 4.87m in length and weighs 2,270kg. The vehicle will fly at speeds from Mach 5 to Mach 7. The X-43C is equipped with a HyTech solid hydrocarbon fuel scramjet engine being developed by Pratt & Whitney. The solid fuel propulsion system provides a longer test flight time than available with the gaseous hydrogen engine as installed in the X-43A.
Three flights of the X-43C were planned from 2008, using a modified Pegasus booster developed by Orbital Sciences which would accelerate the expendable X-43C vehicles to sufficiently high speeds at around Mach 5 to ignite and sustain the scramjet engines.

The X-43C was intended to demonstrate the operation of a solid hydrocarbon-burning scramjet engine at speeds between Mach 5 and 7 sometime in 2008.

Кто нибуть знает, что это за твердотопливный ГПВРД намечается в текущем году?

Solid fuel propulsion system for a ram jet rocket

US Patent Issued on 06/18/2002

Abstract:

A solid fuel propulsion system for a ran jet rocket having a combustion chamber (B) surrounded by a tubular casing (2) and a gas generator (G) disposed upstream from the combustion chamber (B) and surrounded by a tubular casing (1) for generation of a combustible gas from a solid fuel, disposed between the gas generator (G) and the combustion chamber (B) is a gas-stream regulator unit (R) for regulation of the flow of the combustible gas from the gas generator (G) to the combustion chamber (B). The propulsion system has a middle section (4) in which the gas stream regulator unit (R) is housed. The middle section is connected in a load-bearing manner with the combustion chamber casing (2) and the gas generator casing (1) and is provided with a first pressure head ( sealing the gas generator (G), and a second pressure head (9) sealing the combustion chamber (B). Disposed between the pressure heads (8, 9) is a base unit which houses the gas stream regulator unit (R) and braces the pressure heads (8, 9).

Liquid-solid propulsion system and method

United States Patent 5099645

http://www.freepatentsonline.com/5099645.html

Abstract:

A liquid-solid propulsion system having a tank of liquid oxygen and a high pressure chamber loaded with solid grain fuel with a portion of the liquid oxygen being passed through a heat exchanger to convert the liquid oxygen to gaseous oxygen. The gaseous oxygen is directed to the chamber or solid grain fuel to induce a fuel rich gas burn that is directed to a thrust chamber which also receives liquid oxygen to increase the characteristic velocity of the exhaust and thereby provide the specific impulse of the propulsion system. The gaseous oxygen is also directed to the liquid oxygen tank to pressurize the flow of liquid oxygen from the tank. Valves are interposed to control the flow of liquid and gaseous oxygen to provide the required mixture ratio in the thrust chamber for optimum specific impulse or to terminate the thrust of the propulsion system. A method for providing the liquid-solid propulsion system is also disclosed.
