The dual-combustor ramjet is based on an auxiliary combustion chamber, with subsonic combustion, inserted into asupersonic flow. The result is intermediate between the ramjet and the scramjet; theejectorramjet and the ejector scramjet are very similar in principle, with a high-pressure zone accelera...
