Detonation potential in rotating detonation engine (RDE) depends on well-mixed fuel and oxidizer in the annulus. A numerical study was carried out to analyze hydrogen (H2) – oxygen (O2) mixing in RDE prior to the detonation. A validation was effectively achieved by comparing the expected detonation...
