  • Considerations and Simulations About Pulse Detonation Engine
    MATEC Web of Conferences 290, 04009 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf /2019290 04009 MSE 2019 Considerations and simulations about Pulse Detonation Engine Vasile Prisacariu1,*, Constantin Rotaru1, and Mihai Leonida Niculescu2 1Henri Coandă Air Force Academy, Aviation Department, Brașov, Romania 2INCAS, Aerodynamic Department, București, Romania Abstract. PDE propulsion can work from a subsonic regime to hypersonic regimes; this type of engine can have higher thermodynamic efficiency compared to other turbojet or turbofan engines due to the removal of rotating construction elements (compressors and turbines) that can reduce the mass and total cost of propulsion system. The PDE experimental researches focused on both the geometric configuration and the thermo- gas-dynamic flow aspects to prevent uncontrolled self-ignition. This article presents a series of numerical simulations on the functioning of PDE with hydrogen at supersonic regimens. Acronyms and symbols PDE pulse detonation engine AB PDE after burner pulse detonation engine DDT deflagration-to-detonation transition PDRE pulse detonation rocket engine ZDN Zel'dovich-von Neumann-Doering Mx, My Mach numbers p pressure v volume T temperature ρ density u1, u2 velocity h1, h2 enthalpy s1, s2 (S) entropy Vo,V∞ speed 1 INTRODUCTION Detonation is an effective means of burning a fuel mixture and transforming chemical energy into mechanical energy. However, this concept of running the propulsion systems involves difficulties both in rapidly achieving the fuel mixture at high speeds and in initiating and sustaining detonation in a controlled manner. PDE differs from conventional propulsion systems in two main aspects: it generates an intermittent pulse and produces high pressure increase in the combustion chamber, which also represents a major advantage of a PDE, see Figure 1.

    CNC/IUGG: 2019 Quadrennial Report Geodesy and Geophysics in Canada 2015-2019 Quadrennial Report of the Canadian National Committee for the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics Prepared on the Occasion of the 27th General Assembly of the IUGG Montreal, Canada July 2019 INTRODUCTION This report summarizes the research carried out in Canada in the fields of geodesy and geophysics during the quadrennial 2015-2019. It was prepared under the direction of the Canadian National Committee for the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (CNC/IUGG). The CNC/IUGG is administered by the Canadian Geophysical Union, in consultation with the Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society and other Canadian scientific organizations, including the Canadian Association of Physicists, the Geological Association of Canada, and the Canadian Institute of Geomatics. The IUGG adhering organization for Canada is the National Research Council of Canada. Among other duties, the CNC/IUGG is responsible for: • collecting and reconciling the many views of the constituent Canadian scientific community on relevant issues • identifying, representing, and promoting the capabilities and distinctive competence of the community on the international stage • enhancing the depth and breadth of the participation of the community in the activities and events of the IUGG and related organizations • establishing the mechanisms for communicating to the community the views of the IUGG and information about the activities of the IUGG. The aim of this report is to communicate to both the Canadian and international scientific communities the research areas and research progress that has been achieved in geodesy and geophysics over the last four years. The main body of this report is divided into eight sections: one for each of the eight major scientific disciplines as represented by the eight sister societies of the IUGG.

  • Study and Numerical Simulation of Unconventional Engine Technology
    STUDY AND NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF UNCONVENTIONAL ENGINE TECHNOLOGY by ANJALI SHEKHAR B.E Aeronautical Engineering VTU, Karnataka, 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science, Aerospace Engineering, College of Engineering and Applied Science, University of Cincinnati, Ohio 2018 Thesis Committee: Chair: Ephraim Gutmark, Ph.D. Member: Shaaban Abdallah, Ph.D. Member: Mark Turner, Sc.D. An Abstract of Study and Numerical Simulation of Unconventional Engine Technology by Anjali Shekhar Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Aerospace Engineering University of Cincinnati December 2018 The aim of this thesis is to understand the working of two unconventional aircraft propul- sion systems and to setup a two-dimensional transient simulation to analyze its operational mechanism. The air traffic has nearly increased by about 40% in past three decades and calls for alternative propulsion techniques to replace or support the current traditional propulsion methodology. In the light of current demand, the thesis draws motivation from renewed inter- est in two non-conventional propulsion techniques designed in the past and had not been given due importance due to various flaws/drawbacks associated. The thesis emphasizes on the work- ing of Von Ohains thermal compression engine and pulsejet combustors. Computational Fluid Dynamics is used in current study as it offers very high flexibility and can be modified easily to incorporate the required changes. Thermal Compression engine is a design suggested by Von Ohain in 1948. The engine works on the principle of pressure rise caused inside the engine which completely depends on the temperature of working fluid and independent of rotations per minute.

This has been the Year of the Baryon. Some low temperature ones were seen at high redshift, some high temperature ones were seen at low redshift, and some cooling ones were (probably) reheated. Astronomers saw the back of the Sun (which is also made of baryons), a possible solution to the problem of ejection of material by Type II supernovae (in which neutrinos push out baryons), the production of R Coronae Borealis stars (previously-owned baryons), and perhaps found the missing satellite galaxies (whose failing is that they have no baryons). A few questions were left unanswered for next year, and an attempt is made to discuss these as well.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Selecting liquid methane as fuel is a prevailing trend for recent rocket engine developments around the world, triggered by its affordability, reusability, storability for deep space exploration, and prospect for in-situ resource utilization. Given years of time required for acquiring a new rocket engine, a national-level R&D program to develop a methane engine is highly desirable at the earliest opportunity in order to catch up with this worldwide trend towards reusing launch vehicles for competitiveness and mission flexibility. In light of the monumental cost associated with development, fabrication, and testing of a booster stage engine, it is strategically a prudent choice to start with a low-thrust engine and build up space application cases.
