Abstract

This paper adopts the method of injection via an array of holes in three-dimensional numerical simulations of the rotating detonation engines (RDE) with hollow combustor using the premixed stoichiometric hydrogen-air mixture. The calculation is based on the Euler equations coupled with a one-step Arrhenius chemistry model. The array hole injection method is more practical than previous conventional simulations where ideal full area injection method is used. The wave structure of the flow field is composed of obverse-rotating waves (ORWs) propagating clockwise and reverse-rotating waves (RRWs) propagating counterclockwise. ORW is detonation wave (DW) near the outer solid wall while degenerate to shock wave (SW) near the nominally inner wall. This phenomenon is never found in the previse numerical studies.
