One of the most probable reason of the apex seal damage in IR-2500 industrial Wankel (rotary) engine was believed to be the engine detonation. Both analytical and experimental studies were made with a view th find out engine detonation pressure. The stagnation detonation pressure $p_{03}$' was estimated based on the data from IR-2500 engine detonation tests, such as engine firing pressure, state of fresh charge at BDC and polytropic compression exponent. The estimated stagnation detonation pressure for the natural gas fueled IR-2500 engine was in excess of 3,700 psia. With natural gas liquid added to the natural gas the octane value of the fuel was lowered, thus, making the engine more prone to detonate. The estimated detonation pressure for the case with the mixed fuel was about 3,400 psia which was sufficiently high to break the apex seal. The subsequent engine lab tests performed on two identical engines with sole difference in the apex seal thickness between the two engines proved that the engine knock, in fact, was the villain of the apex seal failure.ilure.

Detonation transmission between propane/oxygen (donor) and propane/air (acceptor) with an abrupt area change is experimentally studied. In the donor, there are two types of incident detonation waves: A self-sustained Chapman-Jouguet (CJ) detonation wave and an overdriven detonation wave that is a result of the difference in the initial donor pressure ratios. The piston work is used to characterize the strength of the incident detonation wave. For an incident CJ detonation wave, the re-initiation of a detonation wave in the acceptor depends on the initial pressure in the donor and the expansion ratio. The axisymmetric and non-axisymmetric soot patterns respectively correspond to direct detonation and detonation re-initiation. For an incident overdriven detonation wave, the re-initiation of a detonation wave in the acceptor strongly depends on the degree of overdrive.

The exhaust nozzle serves back pressure of Pulse detonation combustor, so combustion chamber gets sufficient pressure for propulsion. In this context recent researches are focused on influence of nozzle effect on single cycle detonation wave propagation and propulsion performance of PDE. The effects of various nozzles like convergent-divergent nozzle, convergent nozzle, divergent nozzle and without nozzle at exit section of detonation tubes were computationally investigated to seek the desired propulsion performance. Further the effect of divergent nozzle length and half angle on detonation wave structure was analyzed. The simulations have been done using Ansys 14 Fluent platform. The LES turbulence model was used to simulate the combustion wave reacting flows in combustor with standard wall function. From these numerical simulations among four acquaint nozzles the highest thrust augmentation could be attained in divergent nozzle geometry and detonation wave propagation velocity eventually reaches to 1830 m/s, which is near about C-J velocity. Smaller the divergent nozzle half angle has a significant effect on faster detonation wave propagation.

Characteristics of the flame propagation for normal and abnormal combustion in hydrogen premixture in a cylindrical constant-volume combustion chamber are studied numerically. A detailed hydrogen oxidation kinetic mechanism, mixture transport properties and a model describing spark ignition process are used. The calculated pressure-time history of the stable deflagration wave propagation agrees well with the experiment. The ignition of the premixture in the unburned gas, initiated by the hot spot, causes a transition from deflagration to detonation under some initial temperature and pressure. Under the initial conditions with high temperature and pressure, excessive ignition energy initiates a strong blast wave and a detonation wave that follows. The chemical reaction in the detonation wave is much more vigorous than that in the deflagration wave and the peak pressure in the detonation wave is much higher than the equilibrium value.

압력용기의 내압은 압력용기 설계의 중요한 인자이며 이를 바탕으로 관련 설계기준 및 구조해석결과에 따라 압력용기의 두께 및 직경과 같은 기하학적 형상이 결정된다. 그러나 압력용기 내부에서 폭굉이 일어날 경우 이 폭굉압력을 적절히 고려하여 압력용기를 설계할 수 있는 설계기준은 미흡한 실정이다. 일반적으로 폭굉이 발생할 경우, 초기 폭굉압력이 용기 벽면에 도달하여 반사하는 반사압력은 초기압력의 2배 이상이라고 알려진다. 그러나 폭굉압력은 구조물의 고유주기보다도 짧은 시간 안에 최대치에 도달한 후 급격하게 감소하는 경향을 보이며, 이 경우 실제 용기벽면이 받게 되는 압력은 반사압력에 비해 매우 작을 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 폭굉의 특성을 고려하여 압력용기가 견뎌야 하는 적절한 등가의 폭굉압력을 산정하는 방법을 제안함으로써 폭굉을 고려한 효율적인 압력용기 설계기준을 제시하고자 하였다.

본 연구에서는 two-phase model(이상 모델)을 활용하여, 고폭약(RDX) 입자가 고르게 분포되어 있는 에틸렌-공기 혼합물의 데토네이션 속도, 압력을 포함하는 데토네이션 특성을 확인하였다. 순수 가연성 기체 혼합물 내에 고폭약 입자를 분포시킬 경우, 고폭약의 화학 반응에 의한 열방출에 의해 순수 가연성 기체 혼합물의 데토네이션 보다 높은 압력 및 임펄스 증가를 발생시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서 제안된 수치해석 접근법으로 계산한 결과를 검증하기 위하여, 이전에 수행된 실험 결과(RDX 입자의 함량에 따른 데토네이션 압력/속도)와 비교하였다.

Detonation is useful phenomena to get an effective thrust for aerospace vehicle. Fast pressure rise of detonation provides a cycle close to the constant volume system to use energy efficiently. From this point detonation can be used as an aerospace engine system. There are several types of detonation engine; pulse detonation engine (PDE) which provides a thrust by detonation intermittently, and oblique detonation engine (ODE), spin detonation engine (SDE), and rotating detonation engine (RDE) which, on the other hand, provide a continuous thrust.

The detonation combustion is a supersonic combustion process follows on shock wave oscillations in detonation tube. In this paper numerical studies are carried out combined effect of blockage ratio and spacing of obstacle on detonation wave propagation of hydrogen-air mixture in pulse detonation combustor. The deflagration to detonation transition of stoichiometric (ϕ=1)fuel-air mixture in channel has been analyzed for effect of blockage ratio (BR)=0.39, 0.51, 0.59, 0.71 with spacing of 2D and 3D. The reactive Navier-Stokes equation is used to solve the detonation wave propagation mechanism in Ansys Fluent platform. The result shows that fully developed detonation wave initiation regime is observed near smaller vortex generator ratio of BR=0.39 inside the combustor. The turbulent rate of reaction has also a great significance role for shock wave structure. However, vortices of rapid detonation wave are appears near thin boundary layer of each obstacle. Finally, detonation combustor demonstrates the superiority of pressure gain combustor with turbulent rate of reaction of 0.6 kg mol/m3 -s inside the detonation tube with obstacle spacing of 12 cm, this blockage enhanced the turbulence intensity and propulsive thrust. The successful detonation wave propagation speed is achieved in shortest possible time of 0.031s with a significance magnitude of 2349 m/s, which is higher than Chapman-Jouguet (C-J) velocity of 1848 m/s. Furthermore, stronger propulsive thrust force of 36.82 N is generated in pulse time of 0.031s.

고성능 폭약의 성능을 결정하기 위해서는 폭발압력, 폭발속도, 열, 발생되는 가스 등이 정확히 기술될 수 있어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 실측하는데 어려움이 따르는 폭굉 시의 현상을 이해하기 위해 폭약이 폭발할 때 발생하는 압력, 부피팽창, 온도, 폭발속도 등을 이론적으로 계산하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 통해 폭발 현상을 표현하기 위한 계산 프로그램이 개발되었으며 이 프로그램을 이용하여 ANFO와 NG에 대해 폭약성능에 영향을 미치는 요소들을 이론적으로 계산하였다.
