Abstract
Results of numerical and theoretical research of flame behavior in a periodically changing gas flow during combustion in a variable-section narrow channel are presented. The influence of the mean mass flow of the gas and amplitude and frequency of periodic oscillations of the flow on the mean position and temperature of the flame front is studied.
