Animé of a Modeled PC

Maybe the best way to portray what is going on is with an animation.

Stay tuned ...

This an animation of the results from a computer model
that I've gotten to run that simulates the operation of one
type of pulse combustor.

If you pay close attention, you will observe that this
particular model "spits fire"!

Excellent job, Forrest.

If the modelled trend is correct, I mean at least we did see the combustion resonates inside the CC, I think the "compressibilty" is probably not so important a factor for a pulse combustor.

However one thing still confuses me, how did you put into account the gas expansion due to combustion ? If gas is modelled as water, how does it expand ?

Me, too.

If the phenomenum is not represented by, then it does not exist in, the model.
