Solid obstacles induce the detonation in premixed gases while causing significant thrust
losses. Jet obstacles can alleviate this deficiency, but there have been few studies on multi …

Detonation initiation of hydrocarbon-air mixtures is critical to the development of the pulsed
detonation engine (PDE). Conventionally, oxygen enrichment (such as a predetonator) or …

Allowing a fuel/air mixture to flow through bluff-body structures enhances the deflagration-to-
detonation transition (DDT) process in pulse-detonation engines by increasing the …

To investigate the process of deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT) of the copper foam
wall in the pulse detonation engine, detonation combustion experiments were carried out …

To study the influence of a porous wall on the initiation and propagation of the detonation
wave, experiments with ethylene and oxygen-rich air are carried out. The effects of oxygen …

There is much recent interest in the development of propulsion systems using high …

在汽油空气吸气式脉冲爆震发动机(PDE) 协调工作的基础上, 利用动态压力传感器测量了爆震波
峰值压力. 研究了圆环型扰流片的堵塞比, 片数和间距对爆震波峰值压力的影响 …

爆轰驱动激波风洞的自由来流模拟范围与驱动气体的爆轰极限密切相关, 爆轰极限越宽则模拟
范围越大. 驱动气体一般是通过点火管进行起爆的, 提高点火管的起爆能力可以拓宽爆轰极限 …

ABSTRACT A series of studies of the phenomena involved in the transition of a detonation
from a pre-detonator to a tube of larger cross sectional area, for a geometry in which a …

Results of an experimental effort on pulse detonation driven ejectors are presented and
discussed. The experiments were conducted using a pulse detonation engine (PDE)/ejector …
