Numerical study of continuously rotating detonation in two-fuel gaseous mixture

Numerical simulation of continuously rotating detonations of stoichiometric two-fuel mixture with air has been carried out for the cylindrical annular detonation chamber (DC) of the rocket-type engine. The syngas (1-α)СO+αH2, a binary mixture of hydrogen H2 and carbon monoxide CO, is taken. We studied the global flow structure in DC, and the detailed structure of the transverse wave (TW) front in the continuous rotating regime. Integral characteristics of the detonation process − the distribution of average values of static and total pressure along the length of the DC, and the value of specific impulse have been obtained. The region of existence of stable continuous detonation regime in coordinates of the stagnation pressure - temperature in injection manifold (receiver) and the geometric limit of stable TW have been determined.
