    　View Summary

    A novel detonation-assisted fuel injection system was developed in this study to achieve highly efficient supersonic combustion in scramjet engines. In this configuration, a Rotating Detonation Combustor (RDC) with an annular shape was coaxially employed around the main fuel injector, where hydrogen was injected perpendicular to the supersonic airflow. The computational domain consisted of a three-dimensional rectangular region, into which a Mach 2.4 supersonic flow was introduced to simulate flight conditions corresponding to Mach 8.0 at an altitude of 30 km. The main fuel injector and the RDC were coaxially connected to the isothermal lower wall of the scramjet engine. In the RDC, a stoichiometric premixed H₂–O₂ mixture was supplied from the bottom to generate a detonation wave. The compressible Navier–Stokes equations were solved under unsteady conditions. As a result, a detonation wave propagated continuously within the RDC, even when connected to the combustor section exposed to the supersonic main stream. The detonation products, accelerated to supersonic speeds, were discharged together with the main fuel into the scramjet combustor. This configuration generated large-scale vortex structures in the main stream, leading to a combustion efficiency up to 1.9 times higher and a 56% reduction in combustor length. This enhancement was primarily attributed to the high-enthalpy detonation products containing reactive radicals, which assisted main fuel penetration, increasing the penetration height by approximately 85%. Furthermore, high-frequency pressure disturbances with helically distributed spatial patterns were observed on the lower wall of the scramjet combustor, which were considered to contribute to combustion enhancement. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of detonation-assisted injection and highlight its potential as a solution to the long-standing challenges of stable and efficient combustion in supersonic propulsion systems.

  • Numerical evaluation of the effectiveness of detonation gas injection for enhancing combustion performance in scramjet engines

    　View Summary

    In this study, we focus on a novel approach that utilizes high-enthalpy detonation products as an energy source to assist supersonic combustion. Three-dimensional numerical analyses were conducted to evaluate the thermal and chemical effects of burned gas injected into a supersonic flow to enhance combustion in scramjet engines. The computational domain consisted of a three-dimensional square cross-section simulating a scramjet combustor into which supersonic airflow entered at Mach 2.4, corresponding to flight conditions at Mach 8.0. A main fuel injector and a burned-gas injection port were coaxially mounted on the isothermal lower wall of the combustor. To independently assess thermal and chemical effects, two types of burned-gas injection were considered: high-temperature H₂O without radicals (thermal assistance only) and burned gas containing radicals (thermal and chemical assistance). The results demonstrated that burned-gas injection provided a preheating effect due to its higher temperature than the main fuel, and radical injection further increased the heat release rate at comparable temperature. These effects were corroborated by the spatial distribution of the Damköhler number ( Da ₂), which revealed a clear expansion of reaction-dominated regions ( Da ₂ > 1) in the injection cases. Consequently, streamwise fuel consumption was accelerated; in the most enhanced case, the same level of fuel consumption was achieved 75.3 % earlier along the combustor length compared with the baseline. Furthermore, when comparing the burned-gas injection cases, it was suggested that only thermal and chemical assistance could shorten the required combustor length by 26.0 %. The fuel-consumption time scale decreased approximately linearly with increasing enthalpy input, with additional reductions observed in radical-containing cases. These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of this novel detonation-assisted injection strategy in promoting supersonic combustion and underscore its potential for future scramjet applications.

  • Effect of reflection wall distance and supply conditions on reflective shuttling detonation combustor

    　View Summary

    In a reflective shuttling detonation combustor (RSDC), detonation waves propagate between the two reflection walls of a thin combustion chamber. As the chamber is two-dimensional and does not have any curvature, optical and pressure measurements can be conducted simultaneously. In this study, pressure measurements as well as self-luminous and schlieren visualizations were performed using a chamber with a reflection wall distance of 90 mm with ethylene and oxygen. Consequently, the detonation wave number increased from 2 to 5 following the total mass flux, indicating that the wave number depended on the reflection wall distance because the maximum wave number increased with increasing distance. In addition, although the reflection wall distance was varied, the mode transition, in which the wave number increased from 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 3 to 4, occurred at similar values to the critical value at which the maximum mixture fill height was non-dimensionalized by the cell size. The dimensionless detonation wave propagation distance, that is, the reflection wall distance divided by the wave number and maximum mixture fill height, was 3.0 ± 0.3, which is almost the same as that of the previous 45 mm combustor. Additionally, when the ratio of the reflective wall distance to the wave number is the same, the dimensionless quantities match, except in a few cases. Comparing the model results with the schlieren results, different trends were caused by non-ideal phenomena arising from the supply conditions, such as the equivalence ratio and the relationship between the plenum pressure and combustion pressure.
