Funded Activity Summary

Novel Testing of a Supersonic Airbreathing Rotating Detonation Engine. Rotating detonation engines offer the potential for improved propulsive efficiency in high speed flight, but the challenges of integrating the advanced detonation combustion process with an airbreathing engine inlet are yet to be met. This project aims to develop a unique Australian testing capability for airbreathing rotating detonation engines and, utilising this capability, to generate unique experimental data to further the operational understanding of airbreathing rotation detonation engines. By contributing essential research to this new engine concept, Australia can forge intellectual capital and international partnerships, and help provide the benefits of cost and weight savings associated with higher performance engines.
