A detonation chamber and a pulse detonation combustor including a detonation chamber, wherein the detonation chamber includes a plurality of initiation obstacles and at least one injector in fluid flow communication with each of the plurality of initiation obstacles. The plurality of initiation obstacles are disposed on at least a portion of an inner surface of the detonation chamber with each of the plurality of initiation obstacles defining a low pressure region at a trailing edge. The plurality of initiation obstacles are configured to enhance a turbulence of a fluid flow and flame acceleration through the detonation chamber. The at least one injector in provides a cooling fluid flow to each of the plurality of initiation obstacles, wherein the cooling fluid flow is one of a fuel, a combination of fuels, air, or a fuel/air mixture.
