Abstract

Numerical Simulation of pulsating flow in a pulse combustor tailpipe was performed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. The flow in the pipe was characterized by periodic pulsating. The influence of this pulsating includes incomplete flow development and high level of convective heat transfer rate, and both were considered and investigated by the CFD model. Compared with the steady flow condition, results showed that the heat transfer coefficient and Nusselt number were 2.35 times higher.
