NEW COMBUSTION PROCESSES.

Abstract

The purpose of the report is to present material related to unconventional combustion processes which might be used in the development of hypersonic ramjet and supersonic combustion processes. A literature search revealed one article directly related to shock-induced combustion and several articles on a new detonative combustion process. Other sections deal with subjects indirectly related to shock-induced combustion, such as reaction kinetics, ignition delays, and some shock and detonation wave characteristics. A general survey and discussion of studies in the field of detonation research and related subjects is given. High-velocity diffusional combustion is not covered. (Author)
