摘要： A device and assembly for reliably generating supersonic detonation waves in a fuel and air or fuel and oxygen mixture. The device may use a hemispherical detonation chamber into which reactants, comprising a fuel and air or oxygen mixture are injected and ignited by a laser igniter to initiate a detonation wave. The wave is reflected by the hemispherical geometry of the detonation chamber and may exit the device through a fast-acting valve. The detonation chamber may be then purged and the cycle is repeated many times per second. The device may be used for various applications which include but are not limited to a stand-alone intermittent combustion engine, a pre-detonator for an intermittent combustion engine, a projectile launcher, a cleaning device, acoustical energy generation, pressure energy generation, various manufacturing processes and electric power generation. The device may use liquid, gaseous, or solid fuels, depending on the application.
