Abstract

A mixed compression inlet having a forward ramp, an aft ramp, and a slot therebetween is disclosed. The aft ramp is coupled to the inlet to permit both fore-aft movement and rotational movement. The geometric throat of the inlet is located at the leading edge of the aft ramp. The slot opens into a plenum chamber. A vent permits air to exit from the plenum chamber. The pressure in the plenum chamber is maintained approximately equal to the pressure on the aft portion of the forward ramp. A servocontroller receiving input from pressure sensors of the forward ramp and in the plenum chamber controls the position of a vent door to ensure that the proper pressure is maintained within the plenum chamber.
