INTERACTION OF MASSES IN THE OPERATING PROCESS OF PULSE JET ENGINES AS A MEANS OF INCREASING THEIR THRUST EFFICIENCY
V. I. Bogdanov UDC 621.452 Experimental and calculational-theoretical studies have been made of the operating process of pulse jet engines. With certain combinations of parameters of the operating pulsations, the interaction of cyclic gas masses among themselves or with the external medium (with and without the ejector channel alike) is possible, which provides an increase in the thrust efficiency of the engine.
