Download or read book Aerodynamic Noise written by Tarit Bose and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-09 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aerodynamic Noise extensively covers the theoretical basis and mathematical modeling of sound, especially the undesirable sounds produced by aircraft. This noise could come from an aircraft’s engine—propellers, fans, combustion chamber, jets—or the vehicle itself—external surfaces—or from sonic booms. The majority of the sound produced is due to the motion of air and its interaction with solid boundaries, and this is the main discussion of the book. With problem sets at the end of each chapter, Aerodynamic Noise is ideal for graduate students of mechanical and aerospace engineering. It may also be useful for designers of cars, trains, and wind turbines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational aeroacoustics is rapidly emerging as an essential element in the study of aerodynamic sound. As with all emerging technologies, it is paramount that we assess the various opportuni ties and establish achievable goals for this new technology. Essential to this process is the identification and prioritization of fundamental aeroacoustics problems which are amenable to direct numerical siIn ulation. Questions, ranging from the role numerical methods play in the classical theoretical approaches to aeroacoustics, to the correct specification of well-posed numerical problems, need to be answered. These issues provided the impetus for the Workshop on Computa tional Aeroacoustics sponsored by ICASE and the Acoustics Division of NASA LaRC on April 6-9, 1992. The participants of the Work shop were leading aeroacousticians, computational fluid dynamicists and applied mathematicians. The Workshop started with the open ing remarks by M. Y. Hussaini and the welcome address by Kristin Hessenius who introduced the keynote speaker, Sir James Lighthill. The keynote address set the stage for the Workshop. It was both an authoritative and up-to-date discussion of the state-of-the-art in aeroacoustics. The presentations at the Workshop were divided into five sessions - i) Classical Theoretical Approaches (William Zorumski, Chairman), ii) Mathematical Aspects of Acoustics (Rodolfo Rosales, Chairman), iii) Validation Methodology (Allan Pierce, Chairman), iv) Direct Numerical Simulation (Michael Myers, Chairman), and v) Unsteady Compressible Flow Computa tional Methods (Douglas Dwoyer, Chairman).

Download or read book Aerodynamic Sources of Acoustic Resonance in a Duct with Baffles written by Kerry Hourigan and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experimental and numerical investigations of the generation of resonant sound by flow in a duct containing two sets of baffles and the "feedback" of the sound on the vortex shedding process are reported. The experiments are conducted in a wind tunnel and the numerical simulations are used to predict the sources of resonant sound in the flow. The resonant sound field, which is principally longitudinal, is calculated by the finite element method and a discrete-vortex model is used to predict the observed separated flow. Analysis of the passage of a single point vortex past a baffle indicates that the amount of acoustic energy generated is a function of the phase of the acoustic cycle at which the vortex passes the baffle. A more elaborate model simulates the growth of vortex clouds through the clustering of elemental vortices shed from an upstream baffle, tracks the passage of these vortex clouds past a downstream baffle, predicts the generation of acoustic energy using Howe's theory of aerodynamic sound, and accounts for the feedback of sound on the vortex shedding. Comparison is made between the predicted time-dependent structures and the observed flow structures using smoke visualization. The vortex cloud model predicts the flow conditions under which net acoustic energy is generated by the flow and therefore when resonance can be sustained; the results are consistent with the occurrence of peaks in the observed resonant sound pressure levels.

Book excerpt: Modern Methods in Analytical Acoustics considers topics fundamental to the understanding of noise, vibration and fluid mechanisms. The series of lectures on which this material is based began by some twenty five years ago and has been developed and expanded ever since. Acknowledged experts in the field have given this course many times in Europe and the USA. Although the scope of the course has widened considerably, the primary aim of teaching analytical techniques of acoustics alongside specific areas of wave motion and unsteady fluid mechanisms remains. The distinguished authors of this volume are drawn from Departments of Acoustics, Engineering of Applied Mathematics in Berlin, Cambridge and London. Their intention is to reach a wider audience of all those concerned with acoustic analysis than has been able to attend the course.

Download or read book Airfoil Aeroacoustics LES and Acoustic Analogy Predictions written by William Roberto Wolf and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of physics-based noise prediction tools for analysis of aerodynamic noise sources is of paramount importance since noise regulations have become more stringent. Direct simulation of aerodynamic noise remains prohibitively expensive for engineering problems because of the resolution requirements. Therefore, hybrid approaches that consist of predicting nearfield flow quantities by a suitable CFD simulation and farfield sound radiation by aeroacoustic integral methods are more attractive. In this work, we apply the fast multipole method (FMM) to accelerate the solution of boundary integral equation methods such as the boundary element method (BEM) and the Ffowcs Williams & Hawkings (FWH) acoustic analogy formulation. The FMM-BEM is implemented for the solution of acoustic scattering problems and the effects of non-uniform potential flows on acoustic scattering are investigated. The FMM-FWH is implemented for the solution of two and three-dimensional problems of sound propagation. The effects of flow convection and non-linear quadrupole sources are assessed through the study of sound generated by unsteady laminar flows. Finally, a hybrid methodology is applied for the investigation of airfoil noise. This study is important for the design of aerodynamic shapes such as wings and high-lift devices, as well as wind turbine blades, fans and propellers. The present investigation of airfoil self-noise generation and propagation concerns the broadband noise that arises from the interaction of turbulent boundary layers with the airfoil trailing edge and tonal noise that arises from vortex shedding generated by laminar boundary layers. Nearfield acoustic sources are computed using compressible large eddy simulation (LES) and acoustic predictions are performed by the FMM-FWH. Numerical simulations are conducted for a NACA0012 airfoil with tripped boundary layers and blunt rounded trailing edge at different Mach numbers and angles of incidence. The effects of non-linear quadrupole sources and convection are assessed. In order to validate the numerical solutions, flow simulation and acoustic prediction results are compared to experimental data available in the literature and excellent agreement is observed.
