Results of an experimental study of controlled continuous spin detonation of acetylene-air and hydrogen-air mixtures, as well as propane-air-oxygen and kerosene-air-oxygen mixtures in a flow-type cylindrical combustor 30.6 cm in diameter are described. The flow structure and the conditions, properties, and areas of existence of continuous detonation are considered.
A two-dimensional unsteady mathematical model of spin detonation in an annular cylindrical ramjet-type combustor is formulated. The wave dynamics in the combustor filled by a hydrogen-oxygen mixture is studied numerically.
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.
