ABSTRACT:
A pulsed combustion device includes a support structure and a combustor carousel supported by the support structure and rotating relative thereto about an axis. The carousel has a number of combustion conduits in a circumferential array. Each conduit cyclically receives a charge and discharges combustion products of the charge. A venturi effect may help control fuel/air charge leakage from a flowpath spanning the carousel and a stationary manifold.
