The design of a cyclic Pulse Tube for detonation of gaseous fuel using C2H2 & O2was derived from single shot PDE system in 2014. During the trials of this PDE, the detonation parameters are being critically analysed. The data generated will help in designing of future pulse detonation propulsion system for variety of applications. The aim of the paper is bring out new electrical integration problems faced by the team and its solution designs to improve the positive detonation initiations each time. The modifications covered in the current paper, are in the areas of termination sockets, ignition coil, igniter and condenser etc. These improvements will increase the efficiency of the system resulting in repeatable better thrust with low electric energy inputs. The analysis of the data gathered by firing of PDE system after incorporating the above changes also endorsed the claims of the designers in terms of repetitive high energy detonations with significant increase in thrust/impulse. Earlier, during conversion of Single shot rig to cyclic PDE system, various challenges were faced by the team. Due to these challenges, the performance of the system was significantly degraded and remedies became absolutely necessary. Paper also deals at length to deal the challenges faced including remedial actions in subsequent paras. Subsequently, the system results brought out are highly encouraging.
