Mathematical description of the valveless pulse jet

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the mathematical understanding of valveless pulse jet engines, emphasizing the need for resources that detail the internal workings of these engines quantitatively. Key concepts mentioned include the Kadenacy effect, combustion, sound waves, fluid motion, heat transfer, and Helmholtz resonance. Participants express a desire for comprehensive literature that integrates these physical principles with mathematical descriptions. The conversation highlights a gap in available resources for those seeking a deeper, quantitative analysis of valveless pulse jets.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of fluid dynamics
  • Knowledge of thermodynamics and combustion processes
  • Familiarity with sound wave propagation
  • Basic principles of Helmholtz resonance
NEXT STEPS
  • Research mathematical modeling of fluid motion in jet engines
  • Study the Kadenacy effect in the context of pulse jet operation
  • Explore combustion dynamics and heat transfer in valveless pulse jets
  • Investigate Helmholtz resonance and its applications in jet propulsion
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, physicists, and students interested in the mechanics of jet propulsion, particularly those focusing on the mathematical and physical principles governing valveless pulse jets.

Well I want to understand the internal working off the valveless pulse jet, I have red something but everything is qualitative, I would like to ask to you if you know some book describing every process off this kind of engines mathly, including the kadenacy effect.

You have a lot of physics into that device : combustion , sound waves, fluid motion, heat transfer, helmholtz resonance...


Here there is some information, but it doesn't use maths:

I think it's interesting, we can learn a lot from this.




Pd: this is my first post, if you see something wrong or similar, please tell me, thanks.

Perhaps ,¿do you think that i should post this thread in the "mechanical engineering" subforum?
 
¿nobody is interested?:frown:
