Pulsed combustion of fuel-air mixture in a cavity above water surface: modeling and experiments

S. M. Frolov et al.

Summary: A mathematical model for simulating the combustion and detonation of a fuel-air mixture in a gas cavity above the free water surface has been developed and validated using laboratory experiments. The model is based on solving the conservation equations of mass, momentum, and energy for a two-phase reacting gas-water medium.

Pulsed combustion of fuel-air mixture in a cavity under the boat bottom: modeling and experiments

S. M. Frolov et al.

Summary: By simulating the combustion and detonation of fuel mixture in semi-confined gas volumes, it is possible to model the two-phase reactive flow in the gas cavity and predict the resulting lifting and propulsive forces accurately. The validation experiments confirmed the model's capability in predicting physical quantities and dynamics during combustion.

Investigation of a Marine Water-Breathing Hybrid Ram-Rocket Motor

Nachum E. Eisen et al.

Summary: This work presents the theoretical and experimental performance studies of a water-breathing hybrid ram rocket for marine high-speed underwater vehicles. The study shows that the performance of the water-augmented hybrid ram rocket is superior to a standard rocket and a parallel water-augmented solid ram rocket. The addition of water during combustion improves the specific impulse significantly, resulting in better safety and controllability. The experimental results align with the theoretical predictions, demonstrating the feasibility of achieving a specific impulse greater than 400 s for the water-augmented hybrid ram rocket.

Hydrogen fueled detonation ramjet: Conceptual design and test fires at Mach 1.5 and 2.0

V. S. Ivanov et al.

Summary: A conceptual design of a new type of hydrogen-fueled detonation ramjet for cruising flight speed of Mach 2 at sea level is developed using multivariant three-dimensional numerical simulations. Test fires of a DR demonstrator in a pulsed wind tunnel show the possibility of stable continuous-detonation combustion of hydrogen in the engine design at different Mach numbers.

Polyethylene Pyrolysis Products: Their Detonability in Air and Applicability to Solid-Fuel Detonation Ramjets

Sergey M. Frolov et al.

Summary: The detonability of polyethylene pyrolysis products in mixtures with air was studied for the first time, revealing similar explosive characteristics as ethylene and propylene in pulsed detonation conditions. This suggests that pyrogas has high explosion hazard potential but can also serve as a promising fuel for advanced propulsion systems.
