Over the past few decades, there has been significant research into propulsion concepts attempting to employ pressure gain combustion. Pressure gain combustion concepts to date have resulted in dynamic, non-uniform gas flows which are difficult to characterize and compare with more conventional forms of propulsion. This paper proposes a technique to derive for the pressure gain combustion device an equivalent, steady, uniform gas pressure that is available to do work or provide thrust, thereby providing a direct comparison with conventional propulsive devices.
