Journal ArticleDOI
Analytical Model for the Impulse of Single-Cycle Pulse Detonation Tube
TL;DR: In this article, an analytical model for the impulse of a single-cycle pulse detonation tube was developed and validated against experimental data, based on the pressure history at the thrust surface of the tube.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct Experimental Impulse Measurements for Detonations and Deflagrations
TL;DR: Wintenberger et al. as discussed by the authors used a ballistic pendulum arrangement for detonations and deflagrations in a tube closed at one end to measure the ballistic impulse of a single-cycle Pulse Detonation Engine.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used digital in-line holography (DIH) to experimentally quantify the three-dimensional position, size, and velocity of aluminum particles during combustion of ammonium perchlorate (AP) based solid-rocket propellants.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-speed (20 kHz) digital in-line holography for transient particle tracking and sizing in multiphase flows.
TL;DR: High-speed digital in-line holography is applied for 3D quantification of the size and velocity of fragments formed from the impact of a single water drop onto a thin film of water and burning aluminum particles from the combustion of a solid rocket propellant.
