Abstract

Detonative combustion is considered as a promising combustion mechanism for improving thermodynamic efficiency of power generation systems as a PGC, as well as high-speed propulsion systems. Among the various types of detonative combustion, RDE is fascinated by many researchers because of the simplicity and continuos operation characteristics. Present paper is an introduction to the physical and operational concept of RDE with a brief history of RDE researches and recent development activities. Additional discussions will devoted to the relevance to the tangential mode instabilities in liquid rocket engines and improvement of liquid rocket performance.
