Does anyone have any knowledge, or preferably experience with shock tubes or pulse detonation engines?
I'm looking to build a PDE (for the foreseeable future, manually operated, i.e. only operating for one cycle at a time) operating on propane/air with a Shchelkin spiral. Hydrogen/air or hydrogen/oxygen would be feasible on a small scale.
At this stage it will serve no practical purpose.

Hope you have very good hearing protection and even more tolerant neighbors.... 'Cause a normal jet engine is pretty damned quiet compared to a PDE.
'Cause while I wasn't directly involved with the testing, I was maybe 1/2 mile away when this guy was being tested. Loud is not a strong enough word.
