The Aero-Resonator Power Plant of the V-1 Flying Bomb
Abstract
A detailed study is presented of the development of the pulsejet engine which served as the power plant for the German V-1 flying bomb. The history and development of the pulsejet from its crudest designs and the test stands developed for this type engine are considered. The dissertation on resonator valves covers inlet valves, flow valves, and controlled valves. The general basic requirements, origins of resonator shapes, and special resonator tube shapes are discussed as well as the basic requirements and basic types of mixture formation, mixture formation equipment for vaporous and gaseous fuels and powder fuels, and special arrangements of the spoiler nozzle misture formation process. The principles of automatic mixture regulation and gas mixture arrangements are reviewed.
