Abstract

Abstract An experimental study of the propagation of pulsatile pressure waves in an elastic tube was made and results were compared to a theoretical analysis by Lou. The pressure waves were sinusoidally varying acting in a horizontal, longitudinally constrained tube containing water. The independent experimental parameters varied were the pressure wave frequency, pressure wave volume per cycle, static tube pressure and steady flow rate. The wave propagation speeds, measured by non-intrusive techniques, were found to be functions of the wave frequency and the phase angles of the wave elements as theoretically predicted by Lou.
