Abstract:Flow through sudden expansion finds its application in several engineering and biological processes. Though the stability of flow through steady sudden expansion has garnered much attention, little to none is given to the pulsatile flow through sudden expansion. Hence, in the present work we study the influence of inflow pulsatility on flow characteristics in a sudden expansion. The inflow velocity is a sinusoidal waveform that is modulated to encompass a wide range of amplitudes,
