摘要

This study numerically investigates the effects of diluent gas proportion, the overdrive factor, and throat width on the wave structure and thrust performance of a ram accelerator operating in super-detonative mode. For premixed gas of a high energy density, a typical unstart oblique detonation wave system is observed due to the ignition on the front wedge of the projectile, and the detonation waves move downstream to the shoulder as the energy density decreases. In the start range of the overdrive factor, the wave position also shows a tendency to move downstream as the projectile velocity increases, accompanied by oscillations of the wave surface and thrust. As the throat width increases, the wave standing position changes non-monotonously, with an interval of upstream movement and Mach reflection. The typical wave structure of a ram accelerator in super-detonative mode is identified, as well as the unstart stable wave features and the unstable process for choking, which can provide theoretical guidance for avoiding unstart issues in ram accelerators and optimizing their performance.
