Pressure gradient driven, laminar, fully developed pulsating pipe flows have been extensively studied by various researchers and the data for the resultant flow field are available in a number of publications. The present paper, however, concentrates on related flows that are mass flow driven, i.e., the flows where the mass flow rate is prescribed as ṁ=ṁM+ṁAfm(t) and fm(t) is periodically varying in time. Sinusoidal and triangular mass flow rate pulsations in time are analytically considered in detail. Results of experimental investigations are presented and are complemented by data deduced from corresponding analytical and numerical studies. Overall, the results provide a clear insight into mass flow rate driven, laminar, fully developed pulsating pipe flow. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, flows of this kind have not been studied before experimentally, analytically and numerically.

Radial diffusers are the basic geometry for the automatic valves in reciprocating hermetic compressors. In the present work numerical solutions for the laminar isocoric flow in radial diffusers are performed to investigate the influence of some geometry modifications on the mass flow, rate and on the resultant force on the valve. The numerical model was able to handle irregular geometries making use of a regular mesh, and was validated through comparisons with experiments. Results are presented in terms of the effective flow and force area of valves which are important efficiency parameters for the modelling and design of reciprocating hermetic compressors. The efficiency parameters are presented and explored in terms of small modification of the valve geometry, for Reynolds numbers varying from 1000 to 2500 and two values of the gap between valve reed and valve seat. The flow was significantly affected by the geometry modifications, indicating that with little effort the performance of automatic valves can be substantialy improved. For instance, with a small chamfer of 5° at the outlet of the valve feeding orifice, the effective force area was increased by 30 percent.
