2. Problems of Burning in Channels at Supersonic Flow Speed In channels at flow Mach numbers above 1.5 the transition from a supersonic current to the subsonic one occurs in system of (direct, oblique, λ-shaped) shock waves. The arising complex wave structure is called a pseudo-shock. Such type of a current exists in gasdynamic lasers, supersonic wind tunnels and combustion chambers of scramjets. In the latter case the organization of burning in pseudo-shock leads to an intensification of mixing processes and raises intensity of burning. However, a control of pseudo-shock seems to involve considerable difficulties. In the report the new approach based on non-stationary influence on pseudo-shock is shown.

Refinement on dynamics of movement of pseudo-shock and possibility of its registration in the axisymmetric channel Possibility of exact registration of pseudo-jump movement speed in axisymmetric channel by optical methods with the limited possibilities of registration is shown Look of the central part of pseudo-jump in the cylindrical channel It is found out that at periodic disturbances the movement rate of gasdynamic structures isn't a constant and has a maximum at 3-4 ms after a start of motion а b Speed of movement of pseudo-shock upwards (a) and downwards (b) on the axisymmetric channel at throttling frequency 12.2 Hz.

12. Conclusions - Periodic power influence on an isothermal air stream in the channel leads to pseudo-shock moving up and down the stream; - Speed of moving of pseudo-shock in an isothermal stream in axisymmetric and rectangular channels at input of periodic disturbances is determined; its value falls within the limits of 5-25 m/s. At the organization of burning the speed of pseudo-shock decreases down to 1-2 m/s; - At periodic input of disturbances the speed of movement of gasdynamic structures isn't constant, and has a maximum at 3-4 ms after a start of motion; - It is experimentally established that for a mode with diffusive H2 burning a short-term power impulse supply into a stream leads to a pseudo-shock burning mode.
