Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) numerical simulations were conducted in a non-premixed rotating detonation combustor with an axial inlet duct to study the flow characteristics of the strong motion shock wave induced by the detonation. A transient, implicit density-based solver was applied to solve the 3D unsteady Navier-Stokes equations governing the flow, and led to the identification of the single-wave propagation of the detonation wave and the structure of the forward spiral shock wave. The fresh fuel-filled zone was classified into partial and ideal mixed zones, as well as a fuel-rich zone. The detonation wavefront exhibited folding that consisted of the detonation wave of the trailing edge, the main detonation wave, and the secondary detonation wave. In detail, the analysis also focused on the impact of the forward shock wave on both the air intake into the combustion chamber and the mixing of the reactants. The results showed that when the detonation wave temporarily blocked the passage of fuel, the suppressed effect of the forward shock wave on the incoming air was more notable. Equations were derived to establish correlations between the velocity and angle of the forward shock wave in the axial inlet duct and the intensity of the detonation wave, as well as the thermal parameters of the incoming flow. The relationship was validated based on comparisons under different incoming flow temperatures. Finally, a summary was provided for the fundamental structure of the flow field featured by the coupling of a rotating detonation wave and a forward shock wave.
