To compare the behaviour of regeneration and wave rotor techniques in jet propulsion a numerical code has been developed and some interesting results has been obtained. The code simulates the thermodynamic behaviour of different jet engines (simple turbojet, turbofan and turboprop), for different operative conditions and engine parameters. The numerical analysis has been carried on considering several efficiencies of regeneration and wave rotor pressure ratio. The simulations have put in evidence the effect of regeneration particularly on the specific fuel consumption and the effect of wave rotor mainly on the specific power. © 2001 The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc.

Abstract
To compare the behaviour of regeneration and wave rotor techniques in jet propulsion a numerical code has been developed and some interesting results has been obtained. The code simulates the thermodynamic behaviour of different jet engines (simple turbojet, turbofan and turboprop), for different operative conditions and engine parameters. The numerical analysis has been carried on considering several efficiencies of regeneration and wave rotor pressure ratio. The simulations have put in evidence the effect of regeneration particularly on the specific fuel consumption and the effect of wave rotor mainly on the specific power. © 2001 The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc.
