Abstract

Some important aspects of rotating detonation waves are discussed: specific features of recording and interpretation of trajectories of rotating transverse waves onto a moving film, relationship between the acoustic velocity of reaction products and the velocity of rotation of transverse waves, energy release and deficit of velocity of a rotating detonation wave, and multifront structure of rotating transverse waves.
