An exponential horn geometry is introduced in order to establish cellular detonations with a constant mean lateral mass divergence, propagating at quasi-steady speeds below the Chapman-Jouguet value. Experiments and simulations demonstrated…
The present work examines the role of instability and diffusive phenomena in controlling the limits of detonations subject to lateral strain rates. Experiments were conducted in hydrocarbon-oxygen mixtures with varying levels of cellular…
Detonation propagation in a compressible medium wherein the energy release has been made spatially inhomogeneous is examined via numerical simulation. The inhomogeneity is introduced via step functions in the reaction progress variable,…
The present study addresses the reaction zone structure and burning mechanism of unstable detonations. Experiments investigated mainly two-dimensional methane-oxygen cellular detonations in a thin channel geometry. The sufficiently high…
This study investigates the propagation of detonations along a layered configuration where a reactive gas is weakly confined by a hotter inert layer. CFD simulations are performed using a single-step, non-Arrhenius reaction model designed…
We present a numerical study of detonation propagation in unconfined explosive charges shaped as an annular arc (rib). Steady detonation in a straight charge propagates at constant speed but when it enters an annular section, it goes…
The objective of this study is to establish a quantitative relationship between one-dimensional (1D) periodically oscillating detonation waves and two-dimensional (2D) regular cellular detonation waves. Numerical simulations were conducted…
This study investigates the role of two inert mono-atomic diluents, argon and helium, on the detonation structure in order to assess the importance of vibrational non-equilibrium and wall losses. When relaxation effects and wall losses are…
Two-dimensional numerical simulations with Eulerian-Lagrangian method are conducted to study propagation and extinction of stoichiometric hydrogen/air detonations in fine water sprays. Parameterized by water mass loading and initial droplet…
Space and time resolved concentrations of Ar ($^{3}P_2$) metastable atoms at the exit of an atmospheric pressure radio-frequency micro-plasma jet were measured using tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy. The discharge features a…
In this fluid dynamic video we present simulations of converging two-dimensional detonation in a radially expanding supersonic flow of ideal reactive gas. The detonation is found to be unstable and leads to formation of characteristic…
One strategy for arresting propagating detonation waves in pipes is by imposing a sudden area enlargement, which provides a rapid lateral divergence of the gases in the reaction zone and attenuates the leading shock. For sufficiently small…
In this paper, 3D detonation numerical studies are conducted using reactive Euler equations in both straight and curved channels. These simulations are compared to investigate the response of detonation to curvature within infinitely long…
The problem of detonation attenuation in stoichiometric methane-oxygen and its re-establishment following its interaction with obstacles was investigated using high resolution numerical simulation. The main focus was on the role of the…
We present a model for predicting a representative width for the three-dimensional irregular patterns observed on the front views of cellular detonation fronts in reactive gases. Its physical premise is that the cellular combustion process…
The attenuation and quenching of H$_2$/O$_2$ detonations transmitted across a column of cylinders were studied experimentally and analytically at sub-atmospheric pressures. Two distinct transmission regimes were observed: successful…
We investigate the hydrodynamic stability and the formation of patterns in a continuum model of epithelial layers, able to account for the interplay between mechanical activity, lateral adhesion and the $6-$fold orientational order…
Front propagation in two dimensional steady and unsteady cellular flows is investigated in the limit of very fast reaction and sharp front, i.e., in the geometrical optics limit. In the steady case, by means of a simplified model, we…
The present work reports new experiments of detonation diffraction in a 2D channel configuration in stoichiometric mixtures of ethylene, ethane, and methane with oxygen as oxidizer. The flow field details are obtained using high-speed…
The propagation of detonation waves in reactive media bounded by an inert, compressible layer is examined via computational simulations in two different geometries, axisymmetric cylinders and two dimensional, planar slabs. For simplicity,…
