A model pulse detonation engine of low thrust is designed. A valveless fuel and oxidant feed was used to ¦ll a combustion chamber. The detonation was formed in the §ow of mixed fuel and oxidant. The in §uence of oxidant on the engine operation mode, the in §uence of ring obstacles and prechambers on de §agration-to-detonation transition (DDT), and the in §uence of fuel on engine output parameters were investigated. Air hydrogen and air hydrocarbon mixtures were used.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
