contents A three-dimensional simulation of the rotating detonation engine (RDE) with film cooling is conducted. The aim of this study is to analyze the fluid dynamics and heat transfer of the detonation flow field under the influence of cooling flow from the film holes. Results suggest that when the rotating detonation wave sweeps the film holes, the shape of the wave structure will deform, and the detonation products will invade and block the outflow from the film holes; however, this only occurs temporarily. The structure of the detonation wave will quickly restore to its stable form and, meanwhile, the cooling flow also recovers rapidly and provides adequate protected area on the wall surface and effective thermal protection time in a full propagation cycle of the detonation wave. A parametric analysis indicates that the effective outflow time improves with the increase of the mass flow rate of the cooling flow; on the other hand, the cooling efficiency is more significant downstream from the inlet of the combustor to the outlet. In addition, the thrust and specific impulse of the RDE are also examined under the influence of film cooling.
