Abstract
To pinpoint the relationship between high frequency tangential instability(HFTI) and continuous rotating detonation (CRD), series of H2/Air rotating detonations are experimentally achieved in the hollow chamber with Laval nozzle. The contraction ratio of the nozzle has a significant effect on the detonation. The detonation waves number increases with the increasing of equivalence ratio (ER) or nozzle contraction ratio. Based on its character, a new type of detonation is defined as two dominant peak one wave mode (TDPO). The velocities of detonation waves propagating in this new mode are larger than the Chapman-Jouguet (CJ) theoretic value. On the assumption that the reflection wave is rotated with the detonation wave, this mode is well illustrated. The forming process of two waves is also given. The results show that the appearance of combustion mode is relative to the reflection wave generated at the contraction section of the nozzle. The inner mechanism of the refection wave is illustrated. These works make a foundation to investigate the relationship between rotating detonation and tangential instability.
