Abstract: An inherent problem of pulsating combustors is noise generation and the difficulty of predicting noise levels. Analytical data are presented which illustrate the transient velocity profiles ...

Abstract: Tests are reported which were carried out to establish the performance of pressure-exchanger dividers and equalizers using air as the working fluid. The effects of varying rotor speed, port ...

Abstract: The objective of the work was to compare on both an ideal and, where possible, an actual basis the approximate performances of four types of pressure-gain combustor. Such combustors are ...

Abstract: The performance is presented, and a description is given, of a simple pressure-gain combustor, without moving parts, which has been shown, during laboratory trials, to produce a stagnation ...

Abstract: A description is given of a simple, prototype, pulse, pressure-gain combustor for a gas turbine. The work reported was targeted at alleviating problems previously observed with the prototype ...
