In order to significantly increase the effectiveness, performance and specific impulse of future rocket engines, high combustion chamber pressures are required above all. If the combustion chamber ...

Propellant and oxidizer are mixed in a combustion chamber, creating a mixture of hot gases at high pressure that very much wish to leave out the back of the rocket, generating thrust. However ...

From a thermodynamic point of view, detonations are more efficient than the more commonly known deflagration (classic combustion ... chamber at high frequency and thus generate quasi-stationary thrust ...
