Abstract
This paper gives the results of a comparative analysis of methods of simulating airflow for specified flight conditions at the inlet of a high-speed scramjet engine using test facilities with combustion heating of the working fluid. Conditions of the adequacy of the compared heating methods were determined from the obtained values of the engine thrust.
