After initial combustion, the pressure wave propagates towards the exit and reflects back as a rarefaction wave, which generates a minimum pressure in the combustion chamber. This low pressure must be sufficient to open the reed valves to allow fresh reactants to enter. It is shown that for both large and micro-pulsejets, the minimum pressure is low enough. The characteristic operating frequency is found to be approximately inversely proportional to the pulsejet length. Estimation of the boundary layer thickness in the pulsejet shows that viscosity plays a very significant role in the micro-pulsejet and cannot be neglected.}, number={1-2}, journal={INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS IN HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER}, author={Wan, Q and Roberts, WL and Kuznetsov, AV}, year={2005}, month={Jan}, pages={19–26} }

The flow field is established through the mechanism of acoustic streaming. This is accomplished by high frequency vibration of one of the channel walls, which is composed of a piezoelectric bimorph. In the numerical computations, the Navier-Stokes equations are decomposed into the acoustic equations and the streaming equations by the perturbation method. The acoustic field is first numerically obtained, which provides the driving force for the streaming field. The streaming field and the associated temperature field are then obtained numerically. Heat losses from a heat source are measured to determine the efficiency of this as a cooling method. The air-flow patterns in the channel between the heat source and the bimorph actuator are visualized using the particle tracking velocimetry. The visualization clearly shows that vortical streaming (acoustic streaming) can be induced by bimorph vibration, which enhances heat transfer between the heat source and the surrounding air. The temperature decreases obtained computationally and experimentally are in good agreement.}, number={2}, journal={FLOW TURBULENCE AND COMBUSTION}, author={Wan, Q and Wu, T and Chastain, J and Roberts, WL and Kuznetsov, AV and Ro, PI}, year={2005}, month={Mar}, pages={195–206} }

The fluid in the cavity is driven by the sinusoid streaming velocity at the edge of the viscous boundary layer near the lid. When the vibration Reynolds number is sufficiently large, the boundary layer thickness is negligible. The properties of the primary and secondary eddies and the interaction between the primary eddies are discussed in detail for the cavities of three different aspect ratios.}, number={4}, journal={INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS IN HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER}, author={Wan, Q and Kuznetsov, AV}, year={2004}, month={May}, pages={467–476} }

The perturbation technique is utilized under the assumption that the oscillation amplitude is much smaller than the channel width and that the Reynolds number, which is defined by the oscillating frequency and the standing wave number, is much greater than unity. A three-layer structure of both the oscillating and streaming flow fields, which is composed of two very thin boundary layers near the beams and the core region between the boundary layers, is found in the channel. The oscillating velocity fields in all three layers are obtained analytically. The streaming fields within both boundary layers are also obtained analytically based on the oscillating fields. It is found that the streaming velocities approach constant values at the edges of the boundary layers and t...}, number={1}, journal={NUMERICAL HEAT TRANSFER PART A-APPLICATIONS}, author={Wan, Q and Kuznetsov, AV}, year={2004}, month={Jan}, pages={21–47} }

This case is different from a plane wave which is the traditional way of inducing acoustic streaming. The analytical solution shows that the amplitude non-uniformity can be represented by a non-uniformity coefficient y, which characterizes the ratio of the wave number or the attenuation coefficient to their values for the classical plane wave case. The non-uniformity coefficient γ is also obtained by resolving the acoustic field utilizing full numerical solution. Numerical and analytical results are in a good agreement. The Reynolds stress generated by a beam vibrating at one of its modes is also calculated. The maximum values of the Reynolds stress are achieved at the anti-node coordinates and small negative minimum values of the Reynolds stress are observed at the node coordinates. An interesting four-vortex-per-wavelength structure is predicted for such sound field.}, number={1}, journal={INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS IN HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER}, author={Wan, Q and Kuznetsov, AV}, year={2003}, month={Jan}, pages={27–36} }
