Research Trends in the Area of Combustion at the Aviation Institute

Abstract

Designs of pulsejet engines were created, first valve and later sleeve-valve engines. The sleeve-valve pulsejet engine with 30 kg of thrust was used as an experimental drive for the 'Boclan' glider for an independent takeoff. A subsonic ramjet engine with a thrust of 16 kg was used to drive the rotor blades of the 'Trzmiel' experimental helicopter. Subsequently, the development of ramjet engines was oriented toward their use in subsonic and supersonic aircraft. A supersonic ramjet engine of 300 kg thrust was built. Later the scheme of works included the development of the combustion chamber of gas-turbine engines and afterburners and also solid-propellant rocket engines.
