Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to a rotating detonation combustor that includes a forward wall, a radially inner wall, and a radially outer wall. The forward wall is disposed at an inlet end of the rotating detonation combustor. The radially inner wall surrounds a longitudinal axis and extends downstream from the forward wall to an outlet end of the rotating detonation combustor. The radially outer wall extends downstream from the forward wall to the outlet end and surrounds the radially inner wall to define at least one annular plenum between the radially inner wall and the radially outer wall. At least one partition is proximate to the inlet end and defines at least two mixing zones. A plurality of oxidizer inlets and a plurality of fuel inlets are disposed at the inlet end in fluid communication with the at least two mixing zones.
