The Atılım University Department of Airframe and Powerplant Maintenance has been offering Civil Aviation education in English since 2012. In an effort to provide the best level of education, ATILIM UNIVERSITY demonstrated its merit as a role model in Civil Aviation Education last year by being granted a SHY 147 certificate with the status of “Approved Aircraft Maintenance Training Institution” by the General Directorate of Civil Aviation. The SHY 147 is a certificate for Approved Aircraft Maintenance Training Institutions. It is granted to institutions where training programs have undergone inspection, and the quality of the education offered has been approved by the General Directorate of Civil Aviation. With our Civil Aviation Training Center at Esenboğa Airport (our hangar), and the two Cessna-337 planes with double piston engines both of which are fully operational, as well our Beechcraft C90 Kingait plaine with double Turboprop engines, Atılım University is an institution to offer hands-on technical training in civil aviation, and one that strives to take the education it offers to the extremes in terms of technology. The Atılım university Graduate School Department of Airframe and Powerplant Maintenance is a fully-equipped civil aviation school to complement its theoretical education with hands-on training using planes of various kinds. Even before their graduation, most of our students are hired in Turkey’s most prestigious institutions in such a rapidly-developing sector. We are looking forward to welcoming you at this modern and contemporary institution for your education in civil aviation.

Abstract

Within the scope of this study, a 0-dimensional code is developed by using Stream Thrust Analysis in order to evaluate scramjet cycle performance with respect to selected performance parameters (specific impulse, overall efficiency) and combustion chamber exit temperature. By using the results of this code an analysis employing "Design of Experiments" (DoE) is performed to determine the most effective input parameters and/or interactions on the scramjet performance. The results showed that most effective input parameter for all of the selected parameters is fuel/air ratio. Selected parameters are evaluated first individually then simultaneously. The purpose of evaluating the performance parameters simultaneously is to determine the input parameter set which gives the highest values of specific impulse and overall efficiency while giving the lowest value of combustion chamber exit temperature. As a result the input parameter sets for different cases are determined.
