Wind tunnel tests of a hydrogen-fueled detonation ramjet model at approach air stream Mach numbers from 4 to 8
Experimental studies of an axisymmetric hydrogen-fueled detonation ramjet model 1.05-m long and 0.31 m in diameter with an expanding annular combustor were performed in a pulse wind tunnel under conditions of approaching air stream Mach number ranging from 4 to 8 with the total temperature of 290 K. In a supersonic air flow entering the combustor, continuous and longitudinally pulsating modes of hydrogen detonation with the corresponding characteristic frequencies of 1250 and 900 Hz were obtained. The maximum measured values of fuel-based specific impulse and total thrust were 3600 s and 2200 N. (C) 2017 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
