摘 要：Jet propulsion technology has been limited to being identified largely with turbojets and turbo-machinery driven jet *** late there has been a renewed interest in pulsejet technology and it has once again caught the imagination of *** specific characteristics of the pulsejet,such as easy scalability,absence of moving parts,reduced combustion temperatures;lower NOX formation and the like make it possess varied capabilities for use in the field of jet propulsion and the most viable option for small-scale jet *** the current work,a numerical analysis encompassing feasibility and validation of a valveless pulsejet engine was attempted using CD-adapco s STAR-CCM+CFD *** to lack of comprehensive established mathematical laws to govern the working of a pulsejet,most experimental work being performed is done by trial and *** necessitates in-depth computational studies in order to shed more light on the understanding of valveless *** results have been encouraging and in agreement with observed experimental conclusions such as,i)changes in dimensions affect the working of a pulsejet,ii)presence of a flare enhances the working of a pulsejet,and the close agreement in the frequency of *** continuous study,an optimum initial condition was achieved which enabled the pulsejet to begin operation even before 0.05 s,thereby greatly reducing computational costs if a higher time-scale were to be used.
