Pulse Engine

A pulsejet engine is a jet engine in which combustion occurs in pulses. This is the difference between pulsjet and the other reaction engines such as rockets, or turbojets, which all are constant combustion devices. Our model represents a valveless pulse jet, which is the simplest known jet propulsion device. A pulsejet engine is a reaction engine. It can run on a wide range of fuels. It can be constructed from very small (cm) to very large sizes (m). The model is an animation showing a simplified visualization of working mechanism of this engine. Cold air sucks into the engine through intake pipe. The air is mixing with fuel, and then combustion occurs, which produces super-heated gas. Some super-heated gas always stays in the engine, to ignite each new fuel charge. The most interesting benefits of a pulse jet are simple construction and high power to weight ratio. Heat and very high operational noise levels are the greatest disadvantages of these engines.
