Experimental investigation of deflagration to detonation transition in two-phase mixture combustion
Year: 2005
Type: article
Abstract: A multi-cycle pulse detonation engine, filling liquid gasoline/air mixture initially at 300K and 0.1MPa, was designed to study the two-phase deflagration to detonation transition mechanism. In experiments,ionization probes and pressure transducers were utilized to get the velocity and pressure of the combustion wave in the tube, respectively. The results show that detonation wave caused mainly by the shock wave forms ahead of the deflagration flame, and at the beginning of the producing detonation there exist three flames in the tube: deflagration, detonation and retonation if the combustion wave is supposed one dimensional.
