Since RDE systems are in the early stage of development, the physics of engine design is yet to be fully understood and developed. A critical concern of these systems is the practical isolation of the reactant injection manifold and supply system from the combustor pressure oscillations. For this study, the

Abstract:
Detonation cycles are identified as an efficient alternative to the Brayton cycles used in power and propulsion applications. Rotating Detonation Engine (RDE) operating on a detonation cycle works by compressing the working fluid across a detonation wave, thereby reducing the number of compressor stages required in the thermodynamic cycle. Numerical analyses of RDEs are flexible in understanding the flow field within the RDE, however, three-dimensional analyses are expensive due to the differences in time-scale required to resolve the combustion process and flow-field.

Notre étude vise à améliorer la compréhension des modes de rotation continue d’une détonation. Elle porte sur leur caractérisation dans une chambre annulaire de section,normale à son axe de révolution, constante ou linéairement croissante. Le principe de fonctionnement repose sur l’injection continue de gaz frais devant le front de détonation pour renouveler la couche réactive et entretenir sa propagation. Ce travail trouve son application dans le développement de systèmes propulsifs utilisant la détonation rotative comme mode de combustion (Rotating Detonation Engine, RDE). Nous avons conçu e

Abstract:
<div>Rotating Detonation Engines (RDEs) provide a promising avenue for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from combustion-based propulsion and power systems by improving their thermodynamic efficiency through the application of pressure-gain combustion. However, the thermodynamic and systems-level advantages remain unrealized due to the challenge of harnessing the tightly coupled physics and nonlinear detonation dynamics inherent to RDEs, particularly for the less-detonable reactants characteristic of applications. Therefore, a RDE was developed to operate with natural gas and air as the primar

Abstract:
Progress in conventional rocket engine technologies, based on constant pressure combustion, has plateaued in the past few decades. Rotating detonation engines (RDEs) are of particular interest to the rocket propulsion community as pressure gain combustion may provide improvements to specific impulse relevant to booster applications. Despite recent significant investment in RDE technologies, little research has been conducted to date into the effect of nozzle design on rocket application RDEs. Proper nozzle design is critical to capturing the thrust potential of the transient pressure ratios pr

Abstract:
A total number of 849 tests were conducted to investigate the transient response of liquid injectors with various geometries including different taper angles, injection angles and orifice lengths. High-speed videos were analyzed to characterize refill times and back-flow distances of nine different injector geometries subjected to a ethylene-oxygen detonation wave. Water was used as the working fluid and experiments were performed at two different vessel pressure settings (60 and 100 psia). Although a minimal difference was found between plain and angled injectors due to having constant orific

A total of four acrylic injectors were tested to compare the response between gas/liquid and liquid only injectors, as well as compare the role of various geometric features of the notional injector design. Detonation waves are produced through the combustion of ethylene and oxygen, at conditions to produce average wave pressures between 128 and 199 psi.

Abstract:
<div>Rotating detonation engines (RDEs) are one of the most promising options for improving combustor efficiency through a constant-volume combustion process. RDEs are characterized by continuous detonation propagation in an annular combustion chamber with an implicitly dynamic injection response. An additional benefit is the similarity of these devices to existing engine architectures. However, RDEs have yet to realize their thermodynamic and systemic advantages due the non-ideal physics of detonation in practical devices and the complex interactions between the detonations and the hydrodynam
