Abstract:
Rotating detonation engines are provided with various improvements pertaining to performance and reliability. Improvements pertain to, for example, a fluidic valve/premixing chamber, injection/swirl, flow control and turning, ignition, and cooling. A rotating detonation engine can include a cylindrical inner shell within an outer housing, a cylindrical outer shell positioned between the inner shell and the outer housing, an annular gap between the outer shell and the outer housing functioning as a detonation chamber.
