Download or read book On the interactions of sound waves and vortices written by César Legendre and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects of vortical mean flows on the propagation of acoustic waves are numerous, from simple convection effects to instabilities in the acoustic phenomena, including absorption, reflection and refraction effects. Therefore, the role of vorticity in acoustic propagation besides noise generation has been a subject of controversial discussions since the foundation of aeroacoustics. In this work, a theoretical study with subsequent industrial applications has been performed, concerning the derivation of a family of scalar operators for aeroacoustics based in total enthalpy terms and including mean vorticity effects in the propagation.
Download or read book Sound Flow Interactions written by Y. Auregan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-06-18 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coupling between acoustic waves and fluid flow motion is basically nonlinear, with the result that flow and sound modify themselves reciprocally with respect to generation and propagation properties. As a result this problem is investigated by many different communities, such as applied mathematics, acoustics and fluid mechanics. This book is the result of an international school which was held to discuss the foundation of sound--flow interactions, to share expertise and methodologies, and to promote cross-fertilization between the different disciplines involved. It consists essentially of a set of pedagogical lectures and is meant to serve not only as a compact source of reference for the experienced researcher but also as an advanced textbook for postgraduate students, and nonspecialists wishing to familiarize themselves in depth, at a research level, with this fascinating subject.
Download or read book Coherent Vortex Structures in Fluids and Plasmas written by Anatoli Tur and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-09 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph introduces readers to the hydrodynamics of vortex formation, and reviews the last decade of active research in the field, offering a unique focus on research topics at the crossroads of traditional fluids and plasmas. Vortices are responsible for the process of macroscopic transport of momentum, energy and mass, and are formed as the result of spontaneous self-organization. Playing an important role in nature and technology, localized, coherent vortices are regularly observed in shear flows, submerged jets, afterbody flows and in atmospheric boundary layers, sometimes taking on the form of vortex streets. In addition, the book addresses a number of open issues, including but not limited to: which singularities are permitted in a 2D Euler equation besides point vortices? Which other, even more complex, localized vortices could be contained in the Euler equation? How do point vortices interact with potential waves?

This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contents of the book cover topics on vortex dynamics in a variety of flow problems and describe observational measurements and their interpretation. The book contains 13 chapters that first include vortices in the earth and planetary sciences related to vortices in the Venus plasma wake and also on tropical cyclones and on rotating shallow water in the earth's atmosphere. Vortices in fluid problems include airplane wake vortices, vorticity evolution in free-shear flows, together with axisymmetric flows with swirl, as well as thermal conductivities in fluid layers. Vortices in relativistic fluids, in magnetic disks, solitons and vortices, and relaxation for point vortices were also examined. Other chapters describe conditions in a vortex bioreactor and in vortex yarn structures.
Download or read book Fronts Waves and Vortices in Geophysical Flows written by Jan-Bert Flor and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most well known structures in planetary atmospheres and the Earth’s oceans are jets or fronts interacting with vortices on a wide range of scales. The transition from one state to another, such as in unbalanced or adjustment flows, involves the generation of waves as well as the interaction of coherent structures with these waves. This book presents a fluid mechanics perspective to the dynamics of fronts and vortices and their interaction with waves in geophysical flows. It provides a basic physical background for modeling coherent structures in a geophysical context, and it gives essential information on advanced topics such as spontaneous wave emission and wavemomentum transfer in geophysical flows. Based on a set of lectures by leading specialists, this text is targeted at graduate students, researchers and engineers in geophysics and environmental fluid mechanics.

Download or read book Acoustic Control of Turbulent Jets written by A.S. Ginevsky and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-01-22 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph presents recent results of experimental research relating to control of aerodynamic and acoustic characteristics of subsonic and supersonic turbulent jets by acoustic excitation of different intensity and frequency. Coherent structures in subsonic turbulent jets and their sensibility to harmonic acoustic excitation are studied, as well as the generation and suppression of turbulence in subsonic jets under acoustic excitation. The book covers active and passive methods of controlling supersonic non-isobaric jet characteristics and, in particular, suppression of discrete components of aerodynamic jet noise. Numerical simulation methods of subsonic turbulent jets are analyzed. Examples of practical realization of the presented methods are given in application to jet noise reduction of turbojet engines and to auto-oscillation suppression in wind tunnels with open test section.
Download or read book Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow written by Elaine S. Oran and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reactive flows encompass a broad range of physical phenomena, interacting over many different time and space scales. Such flows occur in combustion, chemical lasers, the earth's oceans and atmosphere, and stars and interstellar space. Despite the obvious physical differences in these flows, there is a striking similarity in the forms of their descriptive equations. Thus, the considerations and procedures for constructing numerical models of these systems are also similar, and these similarities can be exploited. Moreover, using the latest technology, what were once difficult and expensive computations can now be done on desktop computers. This book takes account of the explosive growth in computer technology and the greatly increased capacity for solving complex reactive flow problems that have occurred since the first edition of Numerical Simulation of Reactive Flow was published in 1987. It presents algorithms useful for reactive flow simulations, describes trade-offs involved in their use, and gives guidance for building and using models of complex reactive flows.
