RDE Nozzle Computational Design Methodology Development and ApplicationThe rotating detonation engine (RDE) is currently under investigation as an approach to achieving pressure gain combustion for propulsion and power systems. The RDE typically consists of an annulus with one end open (or having a throat and/or nozzle) and the other end valved using non-mechanical, fluidic means. In this study, a total of 6 nozzle design variations were studied for the NPS combustor geometry, using the validated quasi-2D to 3-D coupled simulation approach.
