Abstract
The paper is focused on recent accomplishments in basic and applied research on pulse detonation engines (PDE) and various
PDE design concepts. Current understanding of gas and sprary detonations, thermodynamic grounds for detonation-based
propulsion, principles of practical implementation of the detonation-based thermodynamic cycle, and various operational
constraints of PDEs are discussed.
