Abstract
A pressure rise combustor is provided with fuel provided at intermittent periods. The fuel is pulsed at timings such that the phase lag between the addition of the fuel and a resultant pressure rise is minimized. The fuel is pulsed such that the unsteady addition of heat reinforces the amplitude of an unsteady pressure fluctuation.
