Abstract
This study experimentally confirms the intensification of kerosene combustion in the case where a mixture simulating steam reformation products in a model combustion chamber with a supersonic velocity of the flow at the inlet. It is shown that the used mixture has a higher chemical activity than ethylene. The use of steam reformation products of hydrocarbon or synthetic propellants in schemes with pulse-periodic combustion control increases combustion efficiency without the use of special design solutions for organizing initiation and stable combustion.
