Three-dimensional detonation structure and its response to confinement

Jackson Crane et al.

Summary: Three-dimensional detonation simulations are performed in square channel and round tube geometries, and are compared with two-dimensional simulations and experiments to understand the effect of confinement and boundaries on detonation structure. Results show that 3D detonations have highly inhomogeneous blast dynamics due to the intersections of many transverse waves, resulting in extreme thermodynamic states and overdriven wave velocities. The simulations in different geometries exhibit different detonation cell sizes and blast dynamics.

Detailed chemistry modeling of rotating detonations with dilute n-heptane sprays and preheated air

Shan Jin et al.

Summary: The utilization of liquid fuels is crucial for the commercialization of rotating detonation engines (RDE). This study conducts simulations to analyze the combustion process of rotating detonation with dilute n-heptane sprays and preheated air. The results reveal the heterogeneous mixture in the refill zone, consisting of evaporating droplets, vapor, and air.

Transition to detonation in inhomogeneous hydrogen-air mixtures: The importance of gradients in detonation cell size

Xiaoyi Lu et al.

Summary: This paper presents a numerical study of flame acceleration and deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT) of hydrogen-air mixtures in a channel with obstacles, where the mixture composition has a spatial gradient perpendicular to the wave propagation direction. The simulation results show that the ease with which an inhomogeneous mixture can detonate is bounded by the detonation limits of the most and least detonable homogeneous mixture.

Effect of ozone addition and ozonolysis reaction on the detonation properties of C 2 H 4 /O 2 /Ar mixtures

Jie Sun et al.

Summary: Ozone addition and ozonolysis reaction have been found to enhance detonation and combustion for unsaturated hydrocarbons at low temperatures. This study investigates the effects of ozone addition and ozonolysis reaction on the detonation structure and initiation and propagation processes in C2H4/O2/O3/Ar mixtures. The results show that both ozone decomposition reaction and ozonolysis reaction can enhance detonation and improve the stability of detonation propagation.

On the evolutions of induction zone structure in we dge-stabilize d oblique detonation with water mist flows

Hongbo Guo et al.

Summary: This study investigates two-dimensional wedge-stabilized oblique detonations in stoichiometric and fuel-lean H2/O2/Ar mixtures with water mists using the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The effects of water droplet mass flow rate on flow and chemical structures in the induction zone, as well as the physical and chemical roles of water vapor, are explored. The study reveals that the oblique detonation wave can be sustained within a certain range of water mass flow rates. The deflagration front in the induction zone becomes distorted and zigzagged with increased droplet mass flow rate, but the transition mode from oblique shock wave to oblique detonation wave remains unchanged.

Detonation development from a hot spot in methane/air mixtures: Effects of kinetic models

Jingyi Su et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the performance of different kinetic models in predicting hot spot-induced detonation development in methane/air mixtures through numerical simulations, finding notable discrepancies among predictions by different kinetic models. The results indicate that super-knock prediction strongly depends on the kinetic model used in simulations.

Combustion mode and wave multiplicity in rotating detonative combustion with separate reactant injection

Majie Zhao et al.

Summary: Numerical simulations were used to study the effects of fuel and oxidant compositions on combustion mode and detonation wave multiplicity in two-dimensional rotating detonative combustion. Results showed that deflagration mostly occurred in the fuel-lean zone, with limited H-2 detonating or deflagrating under stoichiometric conditions and over 70% detonating or deflagrating under fuel-lean conditions. The number of detonation waves increased with oxygen mass fraction in the oxidant stream, following a chaotic period before stabilization.

Extinction of incident hydrogen/air detonation in fine water sprays

Yong Xu et al.

Summary: The study shows that the detonation cell size increases with increased water mass loading or decreased droplet size, affecting the propagation of detonation wave. High energy and mass transfer rates have more direct interaction with front structures and reaction fronts during detonation extinction. Additionally, the influence of droplet size on interphase momentum exchange is limited.

The origin of CEMA and its relation to CSP

Dimitris A. Goussis et al.

Summary: There are currently two methods for analyzing explosive modes introduced by chemical kinetics: Computational Singular Perturbation (CSP) algorithm and Chemical Explosive Mode Analysis (CEMA). CEMA, introduced in 2009, is based on tools developed previously in CSP, and the study of explosive modes has been a focus of CSP works before the introduction of CEMA.
