Brillouin spectroscopy has been widely used for the investigation of acoustic properties of condensed matters in the hypersonic region. A high-pressure Brillouin spectrometer was set up by combining a diamond anvil cell and a tandem multi-pass Fabry-Perot interferometer. It was successfully applied to liquid ethanol, and the pressure dependence of the sound velocity, the refractive index and other acoustic properties were derived based on the measurements. The detailed optical setup and experimental procedure are described.

To investigate the heavy-weight impact noise of apartment houses, numerical analysis was performed. The analysis acoustic pressure consider acoustic mode by finite element method. The variables considered effecting on the acoustic pressure are the Acoustic mode, acoustic damping, and the impulse load. The heavy-weight impact noise is a changeable value in the room. Since the most part of the frequency component of heavy-weight impact noise has low frequency. The noise in low frequency is related to the vibration of structure, the reflection of acoustic wave caused by wall and the standing wave called by acoustic mode. The prediction by the numerical analysis was verified with test result of the heavy weight-impact noise at apartment houses.

Acoustic behavior in baffled combustion chambers is numerically investigated by adopting linear acoustic analysis. Partial blade baffle, which is a variant of blade baffle, and hub-blade baffle with six blades are employed as baffle models. Through modal analysis, natural frequencies of each acoustic mode in baffled chambers are calculated and the reduction in natural frequencies caused by baffle installation is examined. Through harmonic analysis, acoustic pressure responses of each chamber to acoustic oscillating excitation are shown. The first tangential mode is found to be most sensitive to acoustic oscillation. Acoustic damping effect of baffle is quantified by damping factor. Damping effect of hub-blade baffle is the most appreciable and damping factor of partial blade baffle is much lower than that of blade baffle. Damping effect of six-blade baflle on the second tangential mode is as much as on the first tangential mode and hub-blade baffle can damp out appreciably the first tangential as well as the first radial mode with the aid of hub.

Various numerical methods have been adopted for indoor noise assessments of ship plant. Acoustical radiosity method is one of the high frequency approaches for acoustic field analysis, which assumes diffuse reflections by boundaries so that it could be efficiently applied to the acoustically diffused indoor space noise analysis. In this study, an acoustic field analysis program has been developed based on radiosity method, which could apply for acoustically large enclosures such as ship's indoor space. For this purpose, the procedure of the acoustical radiosity method has been summarized and implemented to an acoustic field analysis program using MATLAB. Numerical example for a rectangular indoor space has investigated validity of the implemented program. Steady state sound pressure levels calculated for a continuous acoustic source signal have shown good agreement with those by other solutions such as an analytic solution and a ray tracing method. Instantaneous sound pressure levels calculated for an impulsive acoustic signal have provided the clues of direct/reflected acoustic field and reverberation time.

Recently, various acoustic artifacts that contains speaker have been produced such as cellular phone. Speaker consists of diaphragm generating sound and coil vibrating diaphragm. Generally, good speaker means that it has a wide frequency range, high output power rate to input power and flat sound pressure level in specified frequency range. Acoustic characteristic was estimated through the experiment and computer simulation, or sound power was controlled with acoustic sensitivity in a natural frequency range fer last decade. However, the flatness of sound pressure level has not been considered to enhance the sound quality of a speaker. Tn this study, a method for speaker design is proposed for a good acoustic characteristic, which is flatness of SPL(sound pressure level) and wideness between the first and second natural frequency. SYSNOISE is used fer acoustic analysis and ANSYS is used for harmonic response analysis and modal analysis. Optimization for acoustic characteristics of a speaker diaphragm is performed using ModelCenter. All analyses are done within a frequency domain. And we confirm that the experimental and computational simulations have similar trend.

In this paper, the mechanism identification and the avoidance measures on the phenomena of transient acoustic vibration amplified at the water-supply piping system to regulate the steam temperature of the boiler reheater in 500MW class supercritical power plant are presented. The pressure pulsation waves induced by the impeller passing of two feed-water pumps with five blades are coincident with the local acoustic modes of boiler reheater water-supply piping system. There are the phenomena amplified at the peaks of 5X, 10X, 15X and 20X in spectrums of piping vibration, sound pressure, and the feed-water's pressure pulsation waves. The shut-off device is installed in the piping system for the interception of pressure pulsation waves transmitted from two feed-water pumps and the modified design change of the piping layout is applied for the acoustic resonance avoidance. The acoustic natural frequencies are separated from the harmonics of pressure pulsation waves induced by the pump impellers passing through the design change of the span length. The acoustic vibration is gone by resonance avoidance measures. As a result, more than 20 dBA reduction is achieved from 100 dBA to 80 dBA.

To protect a satellite and electronic equipment from the acoustic loads generated by rocket propulsion system, many launch vehicle use acoustic blanket. Most high frequency region of the acoustic loads is reduced by nose fairing skins and acoustic barrier, but low frequency region is not. In order to control low frequency acoustic mode, we designed away resonator panel which was made of composite materials. This paper shows the absorption coefficient measurement result of resonator and SPL(Sound Pressure Level) reduction by using resonators in a rectangular cavity for experiment. Proper arrangement of acoustic resonators at each mode reduce effectively SPL around the satellite through changing boundary condition.

This paper deals with the pressure fluctuation induced by propeller cavitation. The main objective of this study is to analyze the source mechanism of the pressure fluctuation induced by propeller cavitation. To analyze the source mechanism of the pressure fluctuation, modem acoustic theory is applied. The governing equation of the pressure fluctuation induced by propeller is derived using Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings proposed time domain acoustic method. The physical mechanism of pressure fluctuation at the blade rate frequency is analyzed using numerically generated cavitation volume variation. Finally the characteristics of the pressure fluctuation induced by a propeller are presented.

The effect of an external acoustic excitation on the wake structure behind a circular cylinder was experimentally investigated. The sound wave was excited in the frequency range of the shear layer instability and two sound pressure levels of 114 and 120dB were used in this study. As a result, the acoustic excitation modified the wake structure by increasing the velocity fluctuation energy without changing the vortex shedding frequency. The acoustic excitation enhanced the vortex shedding process and promoted the shear layer instability. Consequently, the acoustic excitation reduced the length of the vortex formation region and decreased the base pressure. In addition, the vortex strength of vortices was increased and the width of the wake was spread out due to the acoustic excitation. When the excitation frequency was identical to the shear layer instability frequency, the effect of the external flow control on the cylinder wake was maximized. In addition, with increasing the sound pressure level, the effect of the external acoustic excitation on the wake structure increased.

The micro-perforated panel absorber(MPPA) is one of promising noise control elements because of its applicability to extreme environments where general porous materials cannot be used. Since the MPPA is inherently non-porous sound absorber, it can be a good candidate of acoustic protection system of a space launcher. The overall sound pressure level inside payload fairings of commercial launch vehicles is so high(around 140 dB OASPL) that the conventional linear impedance model cannot be directly applied to the design of the acoustic protection systems. In this paper an acoustic impedance models of a micro-perforated panel absorber at high sound pressure environment were reviewed and the use of the impedance on the practical design of MPPAs was addressed. The variation of absorption characteristics of MPPA was discussed according to the design parameters, e.g., perforation ratio, the minute hole diameter, the thickness of MPP and the incident sound pressure level.
