Three-Dimensional Detonations

The following pictures are the most recent results that I have obtained. There are results for two simulations with two different dimensionless paramter sets. The grid resolution, 170x80x80 or 1080000 mesh points, corresponds to 16 mesh points per ZND half-reaction length. In both cases the computational domain width and depth are 5 half-reaction lengths, and the length is 20 half-reaction lengths.

f = 1.2, Q = 50, E = 10, gamma = 1.2

This sequence of figures shows plots of the pressure and density gradients, as well as the vorticity, as they vary over one-half of a cell cycle.
