PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a two-stage pulse detonation system. SOLUTION: The two-stage pulse detonation system 100 includes a pre-combustor 102 and a geometric resonator 106 connected via a converging-diverging nozzle 104 to the pre-combustor 102 to create a high temperature and high pressure conditions in the resonator to create optimum conditions for detonation initiation. A mixture of a fuel and a gas is burned in the pre-combustor 102 and is passed through the nozzle 104 into the geometric resonator, where the burned mixture is detonated. The detonation propagates through a resonator exit nozzle 78, thus generating thrust. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
