[0002] The rotating detonation combustion chamber usually adopts a coaxial annular cavity structure. The propellant (fuel and oxidizer) is continuously injected and mixed from the head of the rotating detonation combustion chamber in a non-premixed manner. After ignition and detonation, one or more detonation waves are formed in the combustion chamber, which propagate in a circumferential direction and consume the fuel, while the combustion chamber itself is stationary in the circumferential direction. The detonation products after the rotating detonation wave expand rapidly and flow in the axial direction, and are discharged at high speed at the combustion chamber outlet to generate thrust.
