A review of some previous studies of pulsating air flow through orifices in pipes is presented. In particular, the authors comment on the significance of inertia effects, the use of Strouhal number as a non-dimensional parameter, and the effect of phase change on time-dependent variables. Attention is drawn to the possible importance of the previously neglected interaction between the effects of orifices as acoustical filters and as meters of pulsating flow. Using complex variable analysis, a theoretical model based on plane acoustic waves yields, for resonance conditions, relationships between frequency, pressure and geometry variables. These were investigated experimentally for a 1-in diameter pipe with different orifice diameters for a range of frequencies up to 180 Hz. The results indicate that accurate derivation of mass flow rates from pressure measurements across an orifice in a pipe depends on taking into account the effects of wave action at all frequencies. This would avoid the rig-dependent limitations to which experimental work on pulsating gas flow through an orifice in a pipe is subject.

The distributions of mass transfer rate and wall shear stress in sinusoidal laminar pulsating flow through a two-dimensional asymmetric stenosed channel have been studied experimentally and numerically. The distributions are measured by the electrochemical method. The measurement is conducted at a Reynolds number of about 150, a Schmidt number of about 1000, a nondimensional pulsating frequency of 3.40, and a nondimensional flow amplitude of 0.3. It is suggested that the deterioration of an arterial wall distal to stenosis may be greatly enhanced by fluid dynamic effects.


The effective dispersion coefficient of a solute in pulsating flow through a circular tube is here found. The case of a viscous flow under a pulsating pressure gradient is treated in detail and it is found that the Taylor diffusion coefficient contains terms proportional to the square of the amplitude of the pressure pulsations. However, the coefficients of these terms tend rapidly to zero, and the effect of pulsation will rarely contribute a fraction of more than 1/128 (the ratio of the amplitude of pressure gradient pulsation to mean pressure gradient) 2 to the total dispersion coefficient. The methods may be applied to diffusion in any periodic flow.
