      You'd have to take a look at rotating detonation engines, I'm sure there's some articles on them because we've been trying to build them for a while. The news is that Nasa got one 3d printed version running for several minutes, so everyone is excited because we're much closer to solving the issues

      Not really alongside.
      From what I have heard the aerospike is integral to the RDE design to the point that it would not perform even as well as a more standard combustion design with a bell nozzle.
      It seems like the aerospike and the rotating part work really well together.

      Yes, somewhat. There are other steps going ahead as well. NASA has a working RDE engine and as mentioned these are 20% to 30% more fuel efficient than current engines ng ones which means you can many more tonnes of mass into orbit for the same fuel. But you're still limited when it comes to distance you can travel. And for the distance problem NASA is working on a nuclear engine and hopes you do a rocket test with its nuclear engine in 2027

    Great video! I just learned about this for the first time, but this short video really covers all the bases regarding limitations of the pulse detonation approach (shock wave noise and vibration), along with the possibility space for future developments (AI-developed materials for continuous pulse detonation commercialization; rotary detonation, essentially a continuous series of timed detonations). Mach 5 is a nice dream but the materials to support that using pulsed detonation still need to be invented!

  • @Rocket_scientist_88

    I’m a little late to see this… but I have some experience working on/with linear aerospike engines. I worked on the Lockheed Martin X-33 (the prototype technology tester for the LM VentureStar), and I spent a lot of time with the good people at Rocketdyne, who were developing the XRS-2200 Linear Aerospike engine.
    I have always wanted to see this concept in use, and I attended most of the XRS-2200 tests that were performed at Stennis in Mississippi. These engines were very, very promising. To me this was the most important technology to be tested on the X 33 as everyone knows the X 33 was canceled in March 2001, but we did at least get working linear aerospike engines and we had some data on those.
    The difference that I can see between the engines you’re talking about (with a pulse detonation in a circular motion around the periphery of the ramp) and a circular aerospike engine will be that a circular aerospike engine would have all the thrusters operating simultaneously, and continuously, rather than pulses - moving around the periphery in a circular, tornadic fashion. I like this idea, except I would be more comfortable if the thrust were more symmetric about the center of the circular ramp. In other words, why couldn’t we have two detonating simultaneously across the center of the circular ramp from each other? I’m always a little uncomfortable about any kind of nonaxisymmetric thrust on a rocket engine, even if the pulses moved very quickly - there would still be some thrust vectoring (TVC) that might be an issue. I think this is something we would want to avoid.
    The concept of aerospike engines with the external ramps is a very old one and it’s back to the 1950s. There was an instance of somebody (and I can’t member who) that put a circular aerospike engine on a barge… and they were able to get some good data from that test.
    Great video, thanks for posting this! Cheers from New Orleans. 🥃

    They'll be fine for thrusters but long burns will hit the cooling barrier that confounds aerospike engines: The cooling demand rises by the cube and the cooling ability rises by the square. The NASA demo engines used a cooling method that's too heavy for flight. Once again Earth just barely lets us into orbit, but we're getting better.

    • @hf117j
      @hf117j ปีที่แล้ว

      To be fair this type is also likely to be much lighter than that type. Meaning if you do it right you could probably get this one to carry its cooling system as it'll be much lighter itself

    Just some helpful notions. 1. all materials are moving at a intermolecular level. 2. All motion is temperature... just depends on the scale and permability you are trying to reffer to. 3. All alignments are challenged simply by existing, let alone if you are exposing them to explosions. So the tighter the margins, the sooner it will need corrrecting, the lower ability to correct the sooner it will fail.
    This technology can work. It needs strong attitudes willing to redoubt preconceptions and offer up sophisticated solutions to correct for problems rather than trying to simply change materials. ultrasonic pulses for example are under explored.
    4. Fluid dynamics based on a static container can make for more complex calculations than if one was to use a dynamic container, i.e. ultrasonics or laminar flow calipers, that are able to interface with AI and work out what works prior to formulating formula.

      Pulse jets still burn fuel subsonically like normal engines and even ramjets, whereas scramjets and pulsed/rotating detonation engines burn fuel at supersonic speed, which is incredibly difficult to arrange and maintain, and that's why it's only starting to become possible with modern computer simulations, materials and 3d printing.

    I know what you're trying to do, think of it as a sprinkler. Every time the sprinkler lists off a water spout there's a valve that pushes forward and then hits it to turn this all it is. So basically every time there's an explosion it opens up a valve and then once the bow comes back it turns it and then it opens up again so it means you'll have a constant variable explosion in the same or in different valves without having to worry about the same valve being damaged. It also allows it to cool itself down as it changes between valves like a sprinkler would do every time it turns.

    Looks to me that RDEs have a very bright future and I think it is only a matter of time. It will take time to figure out the proper configuration and dynamics for this engine to take us to the next stage of Human space exploration. If we can manufacture an engine that is capable of taking us to Orbit in the way that this engine does, and make it so that it isn't trash after the flight up, then we can begin to make them bigger and more powerful to the point that they are reusable, and fully capable of operating in the vacuum of Space, then this engine is going to be either the engine to take us there, or the father of the engine that'll take us there, or perhaps the grandfather... but it is obvious that we need something more efficient and more practical than a Rocket engine.

    Increased noise was listed as a 'negative' attribute. As soon as RDE is high enough, the thin air will no longer transfer noise. Vibrations from extreme noise (high pressure) will stop outside the RDE, but vibrations will continue inside the RDE as they are transferred inside the actual material RDE is constructed from.

    Interesting Video, So in a I.C.E. you have deflagration as opposed to detonation, It looks like I'm already subbed to your channel, I will turn on all notifications, as I enjoy this type of content, THX for posting. 👊 😎

    I just want the opoc engine to come to market. I would love to see them made and sold as crate engines so I could put them in any kind of car.

    RDE + aerospike should prove to be quite efficient!

    The tornado configuration doesnt solve the vibration problem. We would have to find ways of dealing with that too.

    oddly I imagine a time when this technology is in a pocket lighter sold at 7-11 and in entertaining shapes while future propulsion is bending time.

    I'm a little worried about the rotary component of RDEs introducing guidance issues, but I guess that could be dealt with by having them in counter-rotating pairs like drone rotors.

      They already have multiple detonation waves, keeping the number low and stable, so they don't interfere is the challenge.

    You have missed a key point. It is not an explosion that drives a piston but the expansion of hot gasses, including the non-combustible ones, The explosion or rather a fast burn (a detonation would blow a hole in the piston) is usually arranged to be completed on the compression stroke before top dead centre, and then the expansing gasses drive the piston. And a turbo jet works the same way, it is the expansion of hot gasses that drives it. When it boils down to it, these are heat engines.

    1 little thing: 0:10 that's a pulse jet, not a detonation engine. the nuance has to do with flame propagation speed being supersonic for the detonation engine. A pulse jet is way slower; as in "mechanical valves" type of slower.

    Three of the biggest challenges I see is a combination of resilient materials precise cancellation of heat and shock on the inner surface. If the oressure and heat extremes can be sensed and responded to before they reach the combustion wall then it is s matter of providing adequate cancellation support.

    Clearly, we are on the cusp of better technology, and its applications will be based on cost over current tech. Perhaps, a new kind of jet for instance? Would it still be called a jet, and would it imbibe confidence in its use? Surely, thats yet to be seen. Thank you, for your efforts in bringing it beyond a test stand! Good Work!!!
