Chemiluminescence imaging of an optically accessible non-premixed rotating detonation engine
Brent A. Rankin,Daniel R. Richardson,Andrew W. Caswell,Andrew Naples,John Hoke,Frederick Schauer +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the detonations propagating through the annular channel of an optically accessible rotating detonation engine (RDE) operating on hydrogen-air are visualized using OH* chemiluminescence imaging.

Overview of Performance, Application, and Analysis of Rotating Detonation Engine Technologies
Brent A. Rankin,Matthew L. Fotia,Andrew Naples,Christopher A. Stevens,John Hoke,Thomas A. Kaemming,Scott W. Theuerkauf,Frederick Schauer +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, rotating detonation engines are compared to pulsed detonation engine and they are shown to produce thrust with fuel efficiencies similar to those associated with pulsed engines while operating on gaseous hydrocarbon fuels.

Experimental Study of the Performance of a Rotating Detonation Engine with Nozzle
TL;DR: In this paper, a rotating detonation engine is experimentally tested with various nozzle configurations for the purpose of measuring the propulsive performance of these devices in terms of thrust and specific impulse.

Thermodynamic model of a rotating detonation engine
TL;DR: In this article, the conventional ZND theory is modified with two-dimensional velocity vectors to account for the performance and steady-state flow features of a rotating detonation engine, and the developed analytical model explains many of the steadystate features of the rotating detonations and its thermodynamics.
