In a pulse detonation engine, which consequence results from insufficient reactant mixing?

A)Incomplete deflagration to detonation transition
B)Increased NOx formation downstream
C)Stable, continuous detonation failure
D)Elevated overall coolant requirement

💡 Explanation

Incomplete reactant mixing impairs the deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) because molecular collisions become infrequent, leading to failure of adiabatic compression. Therefore, DDT does not fully occur, rather than other detonation issues or increased coolant.
