IIT Kanpur has unveiled a Detonation Tube Research Facility (DTRF) in the Combustion and Propulsion Laboratory of the institute.

Funded by the Aeronautics Research and Development Board, DRDO, and the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), this is the first facility of its kind in India and among only a few globally.

The facility successfully demonstrated the propagation of a detonation wave in a laboratory setting for the first time in India, accomplishing this feat in a record time of two years, say sources from IIT Kanpur.

Research conducted at the DTRF will help prevent mining, industrial, and home accidents; predict the path of wildfires; increase the efficiency of high-speed detonation-based engines.

It will also strengthen safety protocols in oil, gas, and pharmaceutical industries and even enhance our understanding of supernovas, say sources from IIT Kanpur.

Phenomena

Detonations are one of the most powerful phenomena in nature, where an enormous amount of energy is released almost instantaneously, propagated at a speed faster than the speed of sound, with typical velocities reaching 2000-3000 m/s, making it highly difficult to achieve and control, especially in laboratory settings.

Exploration

Prof. Ajay Vikram Singh, Associate Professor, Department of Aerospace Engineering, IIT Kanpur explained the Detonation Tube Research Facility will explore the physics behind detonations and explosions to advance knowledge in the field of combustion and propulsion.

We are studying flame acceleration mechanisms in confined spaces, critical for preventing severe explosions in processing units and storage facilities, said Prof Ajay of IIT Kanpur.

‘The knowledge will help to stop accidental detonations and enhance safety in various end-use cases.’

We are also carrying out research on high-speed detonation-based engines with the aim of controlling these phenomena for more efficient energy conversion, he said.

The research into detonation-based engines could also lead to the development of powerful devices that operate on the principle of multiple explosions, potentially replacing current engines in aircraft and rockets for more efficient travel, say sources from IIT Kanpur.

Director of IIT Kanpur

Prof Manindra Agrawal, Director of IIT Kanpur spoke about the significance of the facility.

‘I believe the Detonation Tube Research Facility will elevate India’s status in the global aerospace community.’

It positions IIT Kanpur at the forefront of propulsion research, providing the nation with tools to innovate in critical sectors, placing India among a select group of nations capable of exploring advanced detonation technologies, he said.

I would like to congratulate Prof. Ajay Vikram Singh and his team for their remarkable achievement in establishing this pioneering facility, said director of IIT Kanpur.

Research and Solutions

This ground-breaking facility will not only contribute to academic research, but also offer practical solutions to industries reliant on combustion processes.

With advanced diagnostic systems and data acquisition tools, the facility is set to lead the way in understanding detonation waves and improving safety protocols in industries prone to accidental explosions.

IIT Kanpur

IIT Kanpur is best known for the highest standard of its education in science and engineering and seminal R&D contributions over the years.

The institute has a sprawling lush green campus spread over 1050 acres with large pool of academic and research resources spanning across 19 departments, 25 centers and 3 interdisciplinary programs in engineering, science, design, humanities, and management disciplines with more than 580 full-time faculty members and approximately 9000 students.
