NEW Aerospace ENGINE Destroys ROCKETS

Thanks for taking the time to make this video! It makes a very complex subject more understandable!
Well done, Cheers 👍

It’s ironic that the one main flaw in the internal combustion engine, the air flow around the edge of the bore to piston, is the bases of this technology.
Love it and love your content a lot.

Wouldn't it be more efficient if they electroplated the 3d printed strocture? I mean it has a very uneven surface

AI & 3d printing provide much better solutions to the aerospike overheating problem! I just wish the linear aerospike had a better solution!

Need to see it in an actual rocket. Proof is in the pudding.

still I don't understand the difference between combustion and explosion :/

Aren't these just pulsejet engines on steroids?

As AI grows in knowledge it will come up with the answers for more than this and everyone says YAY . In the long run it is different story with AI . :O)

Put that on my FIAT 500 pop…

Doesnt a tornado go both counter clockwise clockwise

If they really get an RDE working, ready for production, it's going to change more than just orbital economics. It will change aviation as a whole.

Definitely one to watch.

I could be wrong, but I think for mach speed flow to occur in the cylinder of an operating engine, other than a diesel type, you would have to have detonation, which is a VERY bad thing. Fuel in a properly working gasoline engine does not detonate, in fact the squish areas in a two cycle engine are designed specifically to try to mitigate that at the cylinder extremes. In a diesel it does operate in detonation mode, but those engines are designed to do that, and you can hear it happening when they run, with all that knocking.

When you hear that in a gasoline engine, something is very wrong that needs to be quickly corrected, like large amounts of carbon buildup or overly advanced timing. If anyone reads this that really knows what goes on there (meaning a cylinder flow guy) and I am wrong, please set me straight, but I'm pretty sure that is what is going on, dynamically. Pulse jets have been around for a very long time, BTW, even in use. The German V1 'buzz bomb' was a pulse jet, hence the 'buzzing'. Detonation, much of it, in a gasoline engine results in effects like broken spark plugs and holes in pistons. These are not sought after events.

Also, I'm pretty sure that detonation is still called combustion. I think combustion just relates to burning, not the rate at which it happens.

How is the design redundant. Redundancy means exceeding what is necessary, or a repetitive system, to have a fall back during a failure, like dual mags on a GA aircraft engine, or multiple computers running in parallel on a voting system, like was in the shuttle, so that one failure does not cause the system to fail, though in some cases it may continue to function in a degraded mode. Does a pulse jet design exhibit these characteristics?

I also don't know what you mean by "a normal jet engine experiencing total pressure loss" during combustion means. It doesn't, and is constantly burning constantly provided fuel and producing constant thrust within and exiting the engine. It is not a fuel flow pulsed or pulsed burn system.

I love it when people say 'we' came up with a new alloy, process, or whatever. 'We' didn't, someone or some team or group of teams or collaborators did. 'We' didn't go to the moon either, though that is said virtually every time, just a handful of astronauts did.

Also, these examples are not new physics, just new applications of existing physics. Things like relativity, in their time, were new physics, newly discovered physics anyway. All physics exist, right now, we just haven't uncovered all of them, almost certainly.


Sorry if it sounds like I'm constantly picking at you here. You do a good job, I'm just trying to help you make it better. It is intended to be constructive, and you certainly didn't come up with manners of speaking like the 'we' thing. You have introduced me to things I hadn't seen before as an engineer, so thank you for that. :-) You could do a cool video on materials alone. Go look up the transparent steel, essentially, a plastic with 12X the strength to weight of steel, it would be an excellent example to include, if you choose to make such an episode. It results from being able to maintain 3D bonding throughout an entire piece. This bonding was easily producible before, but quickly went ary and the normal 2D polymeric bonding initiated and maintained, creating a normal plastic, like say lexan or plexiglass, which are polycarbonates, etc.

The only real and working aerospike motor manufactured is spanish, the name of the company is Pangea Aerospace.
I would even say that these images of the aerospike working correspond to their tests carried out in Germany.

So...where was the NEW ENGINE ???

Wait you think pulse-detonation engines are new? These have been utilized in DARPA research for a long, long time.

Will this rocket engine take me where the Event Horizon went, planet earth is kinda suckin !??

V1 engine was pulse detonation engine. This is old news.

FYI: anyone can make this type of jet engine. Just type in "jam jar jet" on here.

I mean, the vast majority of people will never own any kind of rocket or rde or even turbofan engine. But my understanding is that any improvement over a standard rocket in terms of thrust:weight is AFAIK a huge deal for NASA.

Can this engine be throttled. Can it not be subject to combustion instability in the combustion chamber due to variable exhaust gas back pressure say as a rocket engine travels higher into thinner atmosphere? It might be a failure in the near term like the aerospike rocket engine until new science reveals the new technology that would make it work. Looks like aerospike and rotating detonation technology are made for each other.

Complete ridiculous title. Channel not interested in real applications, just trying to make some believe a new champion is here.

I subscribed at "rotary detonation "...... 😮

Aren't these the same as the RCTs on the Kelvin Enterprise?

Perfect demonstration video. Controlled detonation is an ultimate logical future of chemical reaction thrust!

Design capabilities and 3D printing is the next step.

Have they found the problem ?

Nice presentation . This might turn out to be a major breakthrough

Mind blowing!

Laminar flow

What a time to be alive

someone put RDEs on the 747 pls

"I think" NASA has spent billions in the last 30 years with no working ships. Sure the R&D & tech is great, but They've Built Nothing!
Private sector leapfrogged them with a pittance of the funding, while we grab a Russian Uber to orbit.

اللهم انصر من نصر الاسلام و اخذل من خذل الاسلام و اجعلنا ممن نصر الاسلام و اعزنا به.

Amazing

When you started this video, the first pulsing design (40Hz) remainders of V1 rackets!!!😮😮😮 Pulse action was achieved with combustion chamber having spring membrane and long exhaust tube.... Worked with pure Alcohol and 80% Hidrogen Peroxide!!! They build it 83 year ago..😢

It's still explosion technology. Maybe we could do the opposite. Wink wink

Nuclear fusion and fission is the future 😊

intresting how germany used that same engine to power the worlds first cruise missile back in world war 2

I always wondered why this promising propulsion system is not heavily used in aviation and rocket engineering. Thank you for explaining, great video!

damn..thats actually pretty effin clever

good video

Thank you for the information

this is world war 2 science, this was used on the doodlebug

AI, when allowed, will solve these designs in seconds, not months, weeks, days or hours. Oh people if you only knew what's coming.

Since the earth is colder than space you have to spend energy to get to space. You have earthquake because the earth is getting cooler. Most planets do. Higher entropy to a lower.

I would love to know if a jet engine could be made with this system?

Imagine if we rebuilt redesigned the entire space shuttle space ship design into the modern spacex spaceship
Imagine how much fuel
And how kuch capacity it would have
The capacity ror storage would meet and exeed the current spacex dragonfly spaceship carrying/storage capacity
