  • In this study, the effect of ignition pattern on the wavelet features of rotating detonation waves (RDWs) is numerically investigated with Euler equations and two-step induction-reaction model. The influences of the size, the number and the spacing of the ignition zone were considered. The theoretical Chapman-Jouguet (C-J) detonation wave was used as the ignition zone, and different ignition patterns were obtained by changing the size of the C-J detonation wave. The numerical results indicate that the wavelet features of rotating detonation waves closely depend on the ignition zone size. Only the two-wave and the three-wave modes are observed for the single ignition zone with various sizes, and the relation between the quantity of RDWs and the ignition size is non-linear. For the single ignition zone with the same width, the occurrence probability of the two-wave mode is approximately greater than 80%, while the three-wave mode is a completely random phenomenon. The formation mechanisms of the multiple-wave modes can be summarized as follows: (1) the first RDW is directly produced from the initial C-J detonation wave near the top of the combustor; (2) the subsequent RDW is induced by the interaction between the compressed wave produced by the initial C-J detonation and the jet flow from the micro-nozzles. The quantity of RDWs increases with the quantity or the spacing of ignition zone, but their relations are both non-linear.
