Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 機械工程學系 === 102 === Effects of inlet channel angle on the gas feeding dynamics in pulsed detonation cycle in a micro pulsed detonation engine were investigated in the study. Stoichiometric of ethylene/oxygen were used and high-speed cinematography were applied to observe the flame propagation in mixing section and inlet manifolds upstream of the ignition spot. Laser shadowgraph was also utilized to analyze the shock propagations in the manifolds. It can be found that both of 60° and 90° were typical detonation wave, and a low-speed detonation mode in 30° case. By using a gas chromatography(GC) to measure the mixing status in different angle cases. The equivalent ratio decreased with inlet angle increase. It can be seen that with the smaller inlet angle, there were an intense shock wave propagating back into the inlet manifolds. With 90° inlet angle, the shock wave could only propagate until the cross section, and the expansion resulted in the dissipation of the shock. A dynamic pressure sensor was installed on the oxygen feeding channel to quantify the pressure evolutions in the inlet manifold. The results showed that the shut-off duration for the 30° to 90° inlet was about 306, 219 and 299 us respectively. And reduce to 281, 266 and 270 us by increasing supply pressure. Comparison of single shot and continuous operating of 70 Hz, there were the slowest reaction wave velocity in the inlet section. A cavity design has been apply in the manifold. It can be seen that the shock wave in oxygen manifold were not obvious in cavity case. And the value of peak pressure were 0.45 MPa in original design but there were only 0.12 MPa in cavity case.
