Experimental Proof of Concept of a Noncircular Rotating Detonation Engine (RDE) for Propulsion Applications
A noncircular engine cross-section could provide great flexibility in the integration of propulsion into the airframe. In this work, a tri-arc RDE was constructed and tested as an example of noncircular cross-sectioned RDE. The operational characteristics of detonation wave propagation and thrust pe...
