Abstract
The system integration design technologies for achieving low sonic-boom, low aerodynamic drag, low landing and take-off noise, and light weight simultaneously are the key technologies for future supersonic airplanes. JAXA is promoting the R&D for these technologies based on our experiences of demonstrating the advanced low-drag and low-boom design concepts.

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
To achieve low sonic-boom, low aerodynamic drag, low landing and take-off noise, and light weight simultaneously, the multi-objective optimization tools are utilized in the design study. The super computer is necessary to obtain the multiple objective function efficiently with many numerical simulations.
Achievements of the Year
Buzz is self-excited oscillation phenomena of shock system, which appears at a supersonic diffuser of a supersonic inlet in subcritical operation. In order to suppress buzz, we proposed a new concept of supersonic inlet, which has a duct with constant cross-sectional area. Numerical analysis using the compressible fluid solver FaSTAR showed that flow field of the inlet based on proposed idea is more stable than traditional inlets.
