Abstract
In this paper, the effect of argon and ozone addition to a stoichiometric hydrogen–air mixture on the parameters of the detonation wave is studied numerically in order to reduce the wave propagation velocity and the temperature of combustion products without significantly increasing the detonation cell, which is a fundamental characteristic of the detonation capacity of the mixture. It is found that the molar fractions of the introduced additives can be selected so that the cell size of the detonation wave in the resulting mixture will be close to the average cell size in the pure mixture while the wave velocity and temperature of the detonation products will be significantly reduced. A detonation wave in a mixture with additives at concentrations that do not allow a significant increase in the cell size is found to be more resistant to disturbances caused by obstacles located in the channel than that in a pure mixture. This study is performed using a second-order scheme based on Godunov’s method; a detailed kinetic mechanism is used to simulate chemical reactions.
