Scramjet engines are mainstream power systems for hypersonic vehicles, and it has significant thermal protection demand and power supply demand during the long-time and high-Mach-number flight of hypersonic vehicle. An integrated cooling and power generation system based on supercritical CO2 Brayton cycle is designed for a certain type of scramjet engine. The characterization model of wall heat source for this scramjet engine is constructed. The influences of key design parameters, such as heat absorption pressure, turbine inlet temperature, heat release pressure, and regeneration degree, on the system thermodynamic performance are investigated, as well as the coupling relationships among various design parameters. The optimal design schemes and performance of the integrated cooling and power generation system are obtained by the multi-parameter collaborative optimization. The thermodynamic advantages of the proposed system are also evaluated by comparing with the conventional system with a simple cycle as the baseline. The results show that the proposed integrated cooling and power generation system can achieve a maximum power generation efficiency of 15.9% and a continuous power supply of 206.2 kW, which exhibits a good potential for actual application. The smaller the pinch temperature difference during the heat absorption process of the engine wall, the more significant the thermal performance advantage of the proposed system compared to the benchmark scheme, and the maximum relative increase in power generation efficiency can reach 9.3%.
