Direct Comparison of Schlieren and Soot Foil Measurements of Detonation Cell Sizes
Published in Frontiers in Aerospace Engineering
Detonation-based combustion cycles have the potential to have higher thermodynamic efficiencies than the more common deflagration-based combustion cycles because the pressure of the products is higher than that of the reactants. The geometry to which a detonation is confined can have a strong influence on the detonation’s behavior, or even prevent ...
