Abstract Propulsion based engines have been known for their exemplary thrust but also for lower fuel efficiency and speed of operation which is limited to subsonic and the level of intermittent vibrations produced. Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) is similar to a Pulse Jet Engine (PJE) except for the fact that the flame formed inside the combustion chamber of PDE travels at supersonic speed, whereas in PJE, it is subsonic. The supersonic speed of flame front in PDE is because of the detonation wave formed during the combustion of the fuel mixture which is in the order of 2000 m/s and is based on constant volume combustion. A process called Deflagration to Detonation Transition (DDT) can be used for which turbulence has to be created inside the combustion chamber. The obstacles used in this study were vortex generators and the CAD model of the engine and the obstacles assembly was made in SOLIDWORKS 19.0 software. ANSYS (FLUENT) 16.0 was used for the simulation of the combustion inside the combustion chamber using the Species Transport Model for the performance evaluation.

AbstractThe experiment system of pulse detonation engine is set up to investigate on influence of diameter on detonation acoustic characteristic. The research of detonation acoustic characteristic of pulse detonation engine for four different diameters in different angles is carried out. Results from the test show that as the PDE diameter increasing, there are increases in amplitudes of impact noise in all angles, and the growth rate of amplitude of impact noise in the 90° direction is generally greater than that in the 0° direction. The smaller PDE diameter is, the distance of most obvious directivity at 0° turning to most obvious directivity at 30° is shorter. When the distance is shorter, such as 200 mm, the duration of detonation acoustic is increasing with the increase of PDE diameter, however, when the distance is longer, such as 3000 mm, it is just the opposite. The maximum duration of detonation acoustic is appeared in 3000 mm under 30 mm PDE diameter which reaches to 1.44 ms.
