In a ram jet engine, a tubular combustion chamber is divided into a flame chamber followed by a mixing chamber.

The intake diffusers supply combustion air directly into the flame chamber and secondary air is conveyed along the exterior of the combustion chambers and then supplied directly into the mixing chamber.
