Pulse detonation engines (PDEs) have drawn great attention because of their potential for increased specific impulse as compared to other propulsion systems i.e. gas turbine engines, ramjets, scramjets etc. Recently there have been a large number of researchers working on PDE-based hybrid engines & PDE based power generators. This paper aims to provide a review of previous & ongoing efforts to generate power through pulse detonation engine. A new concept is also discusses for power generation, which is proposed to be developed and tested for feasibility study at PEC University of Technology, Chandigarh in the Department of Aerospace Engineering.
