A promising direction in aviation is the creation of anaircraft for supersonic cruise speeds (Mach 3...4). It is known that ramjet engines are more preferable for Mach numbers larger 3. However, they do not have starting thrust and uneconomical at subsonic flight speeds. At the same time, at subsonic flight speeds, turbofan engines are the most expedient. The combination of the positive properties of turbofan engines at subsonic speeds and a ramjet engines at supersonic speeds is possible by using duct-burning turbofan engine, which can operate at the ramjet mode with the blocked gas turbine duct at supersonic flight conditions. At this mode, duct-burning turbofan engine turns into ramjet engine, which, however, has special features due to the presence of fan in front of the combustion chamber, which operates in turbine mode or in zero power mode and also because of the outlet jet, which has annular shape, flows out from the duct causes the appearance of bottom drag. The presence of bottom drag requires both the development of a mathematical model for its calculation and taking into account its influence on the choice of the control law for the nozzle outlet area. The article presents a mathematical model of the working process of duct-burning turbofan engine at ramjet mode, taking into account the presence of fan in the flow path and bottom drug. Using the developed mathematical model, the regularities of changes in the internal and effective thrust, as well as the specific fuel consumption, depending on the relative fuel consumption and the critical section of the nozzle at a given altitude and flight speed are established. The critical section of the nozzle is the main regulating factor, and the relative fuel consumption is related to the main regulating factor - the fuel consumption. These patterns are useful for choosing a control program.There is such a combination of regulating factors whichprovides two extremes in the regularities of trust and specific fuel consumption changes: the mode of minimum specific fuel consumption and the mode of maximum thrust. In addition, the influence of gas underexpansion in the nozzle on the thrust-economic parameters of the engine and the required area of the nozzle outlet section were estimated. The obtained regularities are advisable to use when engine control program is chosen.
