Abstract: Current total pressure measurement techniques in rotating detonation combustors (RDCs) are based on different assumptions and therefore show different applicability for specific RDC operating conditions, and few studies ...

Abstract: Implementing high-diodicity inlets is critical to reduce backflow and mitigate the pressure loss across the injector in rotating detonation combustors (RDCs). Experiments on air injection diodicity were conducted in a ...

Abstract: In the last decade, the rotating detonation combustor (RDC) has received growing attention among the different pressure gain combustion concepts due to the simplicity of the design and the potential ease of integration in ...
