Intermittent detonator device

Intermittent Detonator Device. An analytical experimental investigation was conducted to determine the operating characteristics of an intermittent-combustion device employing gaseous detonative combustion. Gaseous propane air... [Pg.377]

Results indicated that the intermittent-detonation device was capable of operating on at least two resonant spark-energization frequencies — approx 20 50 cps. Reaction thrust, noise output, and actual combustion frequency were noticeably greater at resonant conditions than at other operating points, . ... [Pg.378]

Reloading of the tube with fresh charge occupied most of the cycle time, which limited the operating frequency of the device. This intermittent-detonation device - which consisted of three assemblies air manifold, fuel injector, and detonation tube — did not appear promising as a thrust producing mechanism because of its low operating frequencies...
