Abstract

Rotating detonation engine (RDE) with pressure gain is innovative for propulsion. To evaluate the RDE using liquid fuel, the rotating detonation wave (RDW) with kerosene droplets is numerically studied. The Eulerian–Lagrangian two-phase flow model is applied to predict the propagation features of th...
