Labyrinth gas feed apparatus and method for a detonation gun

摘要

A gas feed system for detonation gun apparatus having a labyrinth shaped gas path. The labyrinth is positioned between the fuel and oxygen supply and the combustion chamber of a detonation gun. The labyrinth allows the fuel and oxygen supply to flow into the combustion and precludes and migration of the detonation wave front into the fuel supply by destroying that portion of the detonation wave front that enters the labyrinth. The labyrinth gas feed system increases safety, reliability and productivity of the detonation coating process.
