Continuous detonation in a supersonic flow of a hydrogen-oxygen mixture

摘要

The problem of continuous spin detonation in a supersonic flow in a flow-type annular combustor is considered in a two-dimensional unsteady formulation. The dynamics of the detonation wave in a hydrogen-oxygen mixture with isentropic and shock-wave compression of the flow in the input diffuser is studied. It is shown that the mass flow rate of the mixture through the combustor decreases as continuous spin detonation is formed, and a steady regime with a "detached" shock wave is observed at the entrance of the supersonic diffuser. For a contoured combustor, the limit from above is obtained for the Mach number of the incoming supersonic flow at which a continuous detonation regime is obtained.
