The 2021 eruption of Fukutoku-Oka-no-Ba (FOB) in the northwest Pacific on 13 August 2021 produced a large volume of pumice that drifted westward for ~1300 km to the Nansei Islands, Japan, and some extent. In February 2022, pumice with similar characteristics to the FOB pumice was deposited along the Gulf of Thailand. The pumice clasts deposited in Songkhla Province, Thailand, were fine-grained with <4 cm in size and rounded. Most of the clasts consisted of clinopyroxene, plagioclase (andesine), and olivine phenocrysts in a vesiculated grey groundmass, with black-coloured spots exhibiting signatures of a basaltic magma. The whole-rock compositions of the pumice are trachytic, with 61 mass% SiO2 and 9 mass% total alkali (Na2O + K2O). The overall characteristics in the pumice from Thailand are similar to those in FOB pumice. These pumice in Thailand were from the 2021 FOB eruption, and drifted >2800 km south-westward across the South China Sea.

Rotating detonation combustors (RDCs) are among the combustors that use supersonic combustion waves known as detonation waves, and are expected to simplify engine systems and improve thermal efficiency due to their supersonic combustion and compression performance using shock waves. Research is also being actively conducted worldwide on a cylindrical RDC; a RDC without an inner cylinder, which is expected to simplify and downsize the combustor. However, most of the research was performed using gas propellants, and liquid propellants were rarely used. Since liquid propellants are used in many combustors, it is important to evaluate the performance of RDCs with liquid propellants. In this study, a cylindrical RDC with a liquid ethanol–gas oxygen mixture was constructed and tested at a flow rate of 31.5 ± 5.0 g/s, an equivalence ratio of 0.46–1.39, and a back pressure of 14.5 ± 2.5 kPa. The thrust was shown to depend strongly on the combustor bottom pressure history. In addition, the start-up process of the cylindrical RDC with liquid fuel was clarified by self-luminous and CH* radical visualizations. It was found that the detonation wavefront propagated at a distance of 2–3 mm from the combustor bottom, and the main combustion region was 10–15 mm in height.
