Abstract

In order to obtain important knowledge for raising the performance and efficiency of propulsion systems, in this paper we investigate the dynamics process of pressure gain combustion in the Pulse Detonation Engine. Through comprehensive experimentation, we analyse the intricate mechanisms governing the pressure gain combustion in PDEs. Our findings present innovative methods for increasing combustion efficiency, boosting thrust generation, and addressing operational difficulties in PDE designs. Additionally, we discuss creative strategies for utilizing pressure gain effects to enhance engine performance metrics.
