Actually nah, you don't know. There are big differences between a 2-stroke and a pulsejet.
Yep, differences but also a lot of similarities. Both exhaust waste gases and intake fresh air via the same port.
not in any 2-stroke motor ive ever seen... they have both a intake port and exhaust.

its reasonably difficult t get a pulse jet running on its own, let alone running with a projectile blocking the exhaust half the time. on the other hand, it might be an idea to start thinking about a 'combustion machine gun' using the basic principles of a valved pulse jet, only not really pulsing. ...

coaxial piston question

i am planing on making a coaxial valved cannon in the near future, and i was wondering if the shape of the piston could improve performance at all. is the curved piston going to be of any advantage? im assuming it would be but i could be wrong. curved http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/5199/coax1.png ...
