07-12-2016 | Yasin Abul-Huda: Combustion Effects of a Pulsed Detonation Issuing into the Wake of a Reacting Jet in Supersonic Cross Flow
Title: Combustion Effects of a Pulsed Detonation Issuing into the Wake of a Reacting Jet in Supersonic Cross Flow Speaker: Yasin Abul-Huda, NIA Visitor Date: Tuesday, July 12, 2016 Time: 10:00am Location: NIA, Room 101 Abstract: The constrained and dynamic environment present in supersonic combustors poses a number of issues which include cold start/ignition, mixing, flame stabilization, and complete combustion. To help circumvent some of these challenges, we explore aconfiguration which utilizes a pulsed detonation (PD) as a delivery mechanism of high-temperature and radical rich post-detonation products. Specifically, we investigate the fluid mechanic and combustion mechanisms controlling the interaction of ahydrogen- oxygen pulsed detonation (PD)…
