  • Effect of reflection wall distance and supply conditions on reflective shuttling detonation combustor

    Nagaoka T., Matsuoka K., Takahashi Y., Watanabe H., Itouyama N., Kawasaki A., Kasahara J., Matsuo A.

    Combustion and Flame 276 2025.06

    ISSN  00102180

    　View Summary

    In a reflective shuttling detonation combustor (RSDC), detonation waves propagate between the two reflection walls of a thin combustion chamber. As the chamber is two-dimensional and does not have any curvature, optical and pressure measurements can be conducted simultaneously. In this study, pressure measurements as well as self-luminous and schlieren visualizations were performed using a chamber with a reflection wall distance of 90 mm with ethylene and oxygen. Consequently, the detonation wave number increased from 2 to 5 following the total mass flux, indicating that the wave number depended on the reflection wall distance because the maximum wave number increased with increasing distance. In addition, although the reflection wall distance was varied, the mode transition, in which the wave number increased from 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 3 to 4, occurred at similar values to the critical value at which the maximum mixture fill height was non-dimensionalized by the cell size. The dimensionless detonation wave propagation distance, that is, the reflection wall distance divided by the wave number and maximum mixture fill height, was 3.0 ± 0.3, which is almost the same as that of the previous 45 mm combustor. Additionally, when the ratio of the reflective wall distance to the wave number is the same, the dimensionless quantities match, except in a few cases. Comparing the model results with the schlieren results, different trends were caused by non-ideal phenomena arising from the supply conditions, such as the equivalence ratio and the relationship between the plenum pressure and combustion pressure.

  • Direction Control of Rotating Detonation Waves with Helical Combustion Chambers

    Sawada S., Itouyama N., Matsuoka K., Kasahara J., Braun J., Paniagua G., Kawasaki A., Higashino K., Matsuo A., Funaki I.

    Journal of Propulsion and Power 41 ( 2 ) 164 - 177 2025.03

    ISSN  07484658

    　View Summary

    This paper explores the innovative direction control of rotating detonation waves in rotating detonation engines (RDEs) by adjusting the ignition location and employing helical combustors with a sinusoidal cross section. In our experimental setup, we conducted 25 combustion tests using two distinct combustor geometries, each featuring different helical profile directions. The following conclusion drawn from the results: when the ignition was positioned 30.6–46.0 mm from the inlet, the detonation wave direction was invariably influenced by the helical direction. This correlation was statistically significant, with an occurrence probability (assuming a random direction probability of 0.5) being 3 × 10−8, far exceeding the 0.05 significance level. Furthermore, the helical combustors generated a measurable torque due to the pressure differentials created by shock waves within the combustor. This torque, recorded between 0.040 and 0.077 N ⋅ m at a mass flow rate of 28.5–29.0 g/s, indicates the potential of power extraction from the combustor. Notably, the torque direction was also controllable via the helical direction. This study presents a significant advancement in propulsion technology, demonstrating a novel method to control detonation wave direction and torque generation in RDEs through helical combustor design, paving the way for more efficient and controllable propulsion systems.

  • Lagrangian characterization of induction and reaction timescales in a cellular gaseous detonation

    Watanabe H., Matsuo A., Chinnayya A., Itouyama N., Matsuoka K., Kasahara J.

    Physics of Fluids 37 ( 2 )  2025.02

    ISSN  10706631

    　View Summary

    A Lagrangian approach was proposed to analyze induction and reaction times in the cellular gaseous detonation. Two-dimensional simulations in an argon-diluted and non-diluted hydrogen-based mixtures were performed with detailed chemistry, along particle trajectories. The distribution of the induction and reaction times inside the cell was significantly different between the Eulerian and the Lagrangian perspectives, the latter showing non-monotonic behavior. Preferential thermodynamic paths laid along the Rankine-Hugoniot curve and behind transverse waves (TW). All particles were ignited within half and one cell cycle for the diluted and non-diluted mixture, respectively. The ignition mechanisms were not only one-dimensional, but also multi-dimensional, with ignition behind the TW being the most important, and collision of TW and triple points being secondary. A new topology inside the cell could be drawn, from the intersection of the ignition front with TW. TW appeared as phase waves in the ( x , t ) diagram. Comparison of H2O mass fraction between local and equilibrium values indicated that a local chemical disequilibrium remained (superequilibrium), due to TW. Equating the mean sonic plane with thermochemical equilibrium in the non-diluted case is not completely accurate. Furthermore, the characteristic time scales for chemical and hydrodynamic phenomena were compared. The diffusive phenomenon did not make any contribution in the mixtures tested. In comparison with the Zel'dovich-von Neumann-Döring model, a shorter average induction time was found in the non-diluted mixture, which is not in line with the results from previous Favre approaches. The average reaction time was also shorter in both mixtures.

  • Numerical Investigation of Detonation-assisted Fuel Injection Method in Scramjet Engines with Rotating Detonation Combustor

    Miyashita M., Matsuo A., Shima E., Kawasaki A., Itouyama N., Matsuoka K., Kasahara J.

    AIAA Science and Technology Forum and Exposition, AIAA SciTech Forum 2025  2025

    　View Summary

    This study conducted three-dimensional numerical analyses for the interaction of the exhaust flow of a Reflective Shuttling Detonation Combustor (RSDC) and supersonic air-flow to investigate the new concept of detonation combustion as an injection system for scramjet engines. The computational targets of RSDC are the region where the hydrogen-air premixed gas flows from three rows of injectors set at the bottom in fuel-rich conditions. The additional fuel for the supersonic turbulent combustion in the scramjet combustor was added from the side wall of RSDC. The reflective wall distance, the height, and the width of RSDC were set to 45.0 mm, 53 mm, and 5 mm. The supersonic air-flow area simulated scramjet combustor is the region where the air flows at Mach number 3, and the RSDC is related to the main flow area as an injector. The governing equations used in this study were a three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equation and a chemical conservation law of 9 species. The mixed scale model for LES was also used as the turbulence model. As a result, turbulent combustion was observed in the supersonic flow area by mixing the supersonic flow and the exhaust flow of RSDC, including additional fuel. The dynamic pressure ratio of the exhaust flow was 23% greater than that of the single-hole injection (previous injection system of scramjet engine) and 13% greater than that of deflagration combustion. The penetration height was improved, and the turbulent combustion was continuously achieved without an ignition system or a cavity due to the detonation combustion inside the RSDC.

  • Flight Demonstration of Detonation Engine System Using Sounding Rocket S-520-34: Performance of Rotating Detonation Engine Using Liquid Propellants

    　View Summary

    One of the most important aspects of aerospace engineering applications is to create new “flyable” systems. We plan to demonstrate Detonation Engine System2 (DES2) operation using liquid propellants in the space environment for the first time, using the sounding rocket S-520-34. A cylindrical rotating detonation engine was used with liquid ethanol as fuel and liquid nitrous oxide as oxidizer. The plume images were successfully acquired by the onboard digital and analog cameras, and the ignition was successful, which can be confirmed from the image. From pressure and temperature histories, nitrous oxide was considered to be supplied into the combustor with nitrogen from X+125.5 s. Therefore, the combustion pressure decreased due to decrease in total mass flow rate. From the Short-time Fourier transform (STFT) result, a peak value of 21.0 kHz (two-wave mode) was measured, and a peak value of 13.5 kHz (single wave mode) was measured. Therefore, the bipropellant RDE operation was successful. As for the propulsive performance, we measured the RDE axial thrust from the flyable system’s axial acceleration directly, and the thrust was in good agreement with the value calculated from the combustion pressure. In addition, the specific impulse efficiency of 82±7% was achieved.
