THE FEASIBILITY OF A ROTATING DETONATION WAVE ROCKET MOTOR.
Abstract
Theoretical study of an analytical model for the internal gas dynamics associated with a rotating detonation wave engine are presented. The dif ferential equations resulting from this analysis have been put in a form convenient for solution. Two cases of physical significance have been identified; the case of instantaneous, complete mixing between the burned and unburned propel lants and the case of no mixing. An analytical solution to the equations has been found for the case where the local chamber pressure is equal or greater than the injector pressure and the injector mass flow is zero (blocked injector case). For the complete mixing case a digital computer program has been developed f the IBM 7090 computer which integrates numerically the differential equations. (Author)
