The Principal Aspects of Application of Detonation in Propulsion Systems

Abstract EN

The basic problems of application of detonation process in propulsion systems with impulse and continuous burning of combustible mixture are discussed.

The results on propagation of detonation waves in supersonic flow are analyzed relatively to air-breathing engine.

The experimental results are presented showing the basic possibility of creation of an engine with exterior detonation burning.

The base results on optimization of initiation in impulse detonation engine are explained at the expense of spatial and temporal redistribution of an energy, entered into a mixture.

The method and technique for construction of highly effective accelerators for deflagration to detonation transition are discussed also.
