An increase in acoustic energy in a combustion chamber coupled with heat fluctuations from flame results in the occurrence of combustion instability. The assessment of combustion stability requires the prediction of acoustic energy variation by understanding the acoustical characteristics of flow boundaries in a combustion chamber. The present paper discusses about the characteristics of acoustic impedances at boundaries in terms of Strouhal number and summarizes theoretical analyses on the acoustic characteristics of injector-head-like configurations. Also, the details of the two-microphone measurement technique have been presented.

초음속 유동장 내에 설치된 끝이 막힌 관에 의해 발생하는 공진 현상에는 스크리치 모드 (jet screech mode)와 토출 모드 (jet regurgitant mode)가 있다 이중 토출 모드는 원리상 음향학적 공진과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 본 연구에서는 경계 조건으로, 주어진 강도와 주파수를 갖는 마하 수의 진동을 통하여 압축성 유동장을 가진하는 개념적 모델을 통하여 공진 현상을 모사한다. 비선형 효과의 탐구를 위해 축대칭 오일러 방정식을 수치적으로 풀이하면서, 4 가지의 주요한 파라메터들 (가진 강도, 가진 주파수, 진 동부와 관 사이의 거리, 관의 깊이)을 추출하고 이에 대한 영향을 연구하였다. 또한 비선형 유동 효과에 의해 발생하는, 고전 이론에 의해 예측된 공진 주파수와의 차이를 정량적으로 나타내고 그 원인을 고찰하였다.

송풍기나 홴과 같은 유체기계의 소음은 최근 들어 사람들의 관심을 끌면서 많은 사회적 문제가 되고 있다. 이러한 문제는 유체기계가 제품의 구매요구를 결정할 뿐만 아니라 환경소음의 규제와도 관계가 깊다. 이런 홴이나 송풍기 소음은 축 편심에 의한 진동 소음과, 유동에 의한 유동소음이 있는데 대형 송풍기는 진동 소음과 유동 소음이 동시에 존재하지만 중소형 송풍기는 유동 소음이 우세하다. 유동 소음은 공력음향학이라는 학문의 한 분야로 유동에 대한 정보가 있어야 정확한 소음원을 파악하고, 특성도 예측이 가능하다. 유동과의 강한 연관성 때문에 지금까지 송풍기의 유동 소음에 대한 연구가 미약하였다.(중략)

Acoustic streaming Induced by longitudinal vibration at 30 kHz is visualized for a test fluid flow between the stationary glass plate and ultrasonic vibrating surface with particle imaging velocimetry (PIV) To measure an increase in the velocity of air flow due to acoustic streaming, the velocity of air flow in a gap between the heat source and ultrasonic vibrator is obtained quantitatively using PIV. The ultrasonic wave propagating into air in the gap generates steady-state secondary vortex called acoustic streaming which enhances convective cooling of the stationary heat source. Heat transfer through air in the gap is represented by experimental convective heat transfer coefficient with respect to the gap. Theoretical analysis shows that gaps for maximum heat transfer enhancement are the multiple of half wavelength. Optimal gaps for the actual design are experimentally found to be half wavelength and one wavelength. A drastic temperature variation exists for the local axial direction of the vibrator according to the measurement of the temperature distribution in the gap. The acoustic streaming velocity of the test fluid in the gap is at maximum when the gap agrees with the multiples of half wavelength of the ultrasonic wave, which are specifically 6 mm and 12 mm.

In this study, the Eulerian/Lagrangian one-way coupling method is proposed to predict flow noise due to Blade-Tip Vortex Cavitation (BTVC). The proposed method consists of four sequential steps: flow field simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques, reconstruction of wing-tip vortex using vortex model, generation of BTVC using bubble dynamics model and acoustic wave prediction using the acoustic analogy. Because the CFD prediction of tip vortex structure generally suffers from severe under-prediction of its strength along the steamwise direction due to the intrinsic numerical damping of CFD schemes and excessive turbulence intensity, the wing-tip vortex along the freestream direction is regenerated by using the vortex modeling. Then, the bubble dynamics model based on the Rayleigh-Plesset equation was employed to simulate the generation and variation of BTVC. Finally, the flow noise due to BTVC is predicted by modeling each of spherical bubbles as a monople source whose strength is proportional to the rate of time-variation of bubble volume. The validity of the proposed numerical methods is confirmed by comparing the predicted results with the measured data.

A pressure relief valve is generally used to prevent piping systems from being broken due to high pressure gas flows. However, the sudden pressure drop caused by the pressure relief valve produces high acoustic energy which propagates in the form of compressible acoustic waves in the pipe and sometimes causes severe vibration of the pipe structure, thereby resulting in its failure. In this study, internal aerodynamic noise due to valve flow is estimated for a simple contraction-expansion pipe by combining the LES (Large-Eddy Simulation) technique with the wavenumber-frequency analysis, which allows the decomposition of fluctuating pressure into incompressible hydrodynamic pressure and compressible acoustic pressure. In order to increase the convergence, the steady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations are numerically solved. And then, for the unsteady flow analysis with high accuracy, the unsteady LES is performed with the steady result as the initial value. The wavenumber-frequency analysis is finally performed using the unsteady flow simulation results. The wavenumber-frequency analysis is shown to separate the compressible pressure fluctuation in the flow field from the incompressible one. This result can provide the accurate information for the source causing so-called acoustic-induced-vibration of a piping system.

In this paper, sunroof buffeting analysis for Hyundai simple model(HSM) is studied computationally. For validation, the velocity profile of boundary layer around the opening of HSM was obtained and compared with experimental results. The analysis of sunroof buffeting is done in two parts. First a steady state solution is obtained using the Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) solver, and then the computed flow field information is used as input for CAA++. Second transient simulation by CAA++ is performed for the peak sound pressure levels and peak frequencies of buffeting noise over the ranges of flow velocities. The benchmark results of frequency and sound pressure levels showed the general phenomena and matched well with the experimental data obtained by Hyundai Motor Car.

The flow noise generated by hull appendages is directly related to the performance of the sonar in terms of self-noise and induces a secondary noise source through interaction with the propeller and rudder. Thus, the noise in the near field should be analyzed accurately. However, the acoustic analogy method is an indirect method that is not used to simulate the propagation of an acoustic signal directly; therefore, diffraction, reflection, and scattering characteristics cannot be considered, and near-field analysis is limited. In this study, the propagation process of flow noise in water was directly simulated by using the lattice Boltzmann method. The lattice Boltzmann method could be used to analyze flow noise by simulating the collision and streaming processes of molecules, and it is suitable for noise analysis because of its compressibility, low dissipation rate, and low dispersion rate characteristics. The flow noise source was derived using Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations for the hull appendages, and the propagation process of the flow noise was directly simulated using the lattice Boltzmann method by applying the developed flow-acoustic boundary conditions. The derived results were compared with Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings results and hydrodynamic pressure results based on the receiver location to verify the usefulness of the lattice Boltzmann method within the near-field range in comparison with other techniques.

In this paper, flow noise characteristics of the hybrid vertical-axis wind turbine is investigated. Hybrid vertical-axis wind turbines consisting of two types of vertical-axis wind turbines, Savonius and Darrieus, are devised to maximize merits of one turbine and thus minimize demerits of the other turbine. In order to predict flow noise radiating from hybrid vertical-axis wind turbines, hybrid computatioinal aero acoustic techniques are used. First, unsteady flow fields around the turbine are predicted using computational fluid dynamics method. Then, the flow noise radiations from the turbines are predicted by applying acoustic analogy to the predicted flow fields. Based on numerical results, noise characteristics of a hybrid vertical-axis wind turbine is investigated and is compared with those of Savonius and Darrieus wind turbines.
