The noise of a refrigerator is consisted of the various flow noises of a refrigerator fan, a compressor and a condenser fan. The demands of high flow rate, compact space and low noise are to be accommodated, especially, in the case of a premium refrigerator. In this study, flow field, noise sources and flow noise are analyzed numerically and compared to the measured data. The flow field is calculated with 3-dimensional CFD solver - SC/Tetra, and the noise source and aeroacoustic noise is analyzed with FlowNoise S/W. Low noise axial fan can be developed by controlling the dominant noise source area.

The flow induced noise of the cross-flow fan with uniform/random pitch blades is predicted by computational methods. With the time dependent surface pressure data obtained by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in moving coordinates, the acoustic pressure is predicted by the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings equation. The positions of the blade noise source are identified through an investigation of the acoustic pressure history induced by one blade, and it is confirmed that the dominant noise source is near the stabilizer. Since the acoustic pressure of the random pitch fan fluctuates according to the blade passin, the dominant BPF noise of the uniform pitch fan is modulated into some reduced discrete noises which have multiples of a 50Hz difference from BPF.

본 논문에서는 환기를 위한 시로코 팬의 내부에서 유동 및 소음을 해석하기 위해 상용프로그램으로 해석하였다. 소음원의 위치와 크기만을 확인하기 위해 유동해석은 정상 상태 유동 해석을 진행하였다. 유동 해석을 통해 시로코 팬의 내부에서 발생하는 유동의 속도와 속도 벡터로 유동의 흐름을 보았다. 내부의 압력 분포는 contour로 결과를 보았다. 정상 상태 유동 해석 결과에서 Curle surface acoustic power와 Proudman acoustic power를 활용하여 해석결과로부터 소음원의 위치와 크기를 볼 수 있다. Curle surface acoustic power으로 표면에서 발생하는 소음을 볼 수 있다. Proudman acoustic power으로 유동영역에서 발생하는 소음을 볼 수 있다. 정상 상태에서 시로코 팬의 내부에서 발생하는 소음원의 위치와 크기만 볼 수 있기 때문에 발생하는 소음의 주파수를 확인하기 위해서는 추가적으로 비정상 상태 해석을 진행할 필요가 있다. 본 연구를 통해 시로코 팬의 성능을 향상시키고 소음을 저감하기 위한 연구의 기초 자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.

A constant flow-rate control valve provides effective distributions and controls of running water in a pipe system. The noise characteristics were measured to reveal the noise sources depending on pressure differences across a valve. Valve noise is mostly dominated by bubble dynamics under cavitating conditions. In this study, the sound powers from a flow control valve of constant flow rates are effectively normalized. Flow-excited dynamic systems for which there is no strong coupling between the flow and the system response can be described using a linear source-filter model. On this assumption, the normalized sound powers can be decomposed of noise source function and a response function. The source spectra in, terms of cavitation frequency show cavitation events occurring at narrow banded frequencies greater than 10 kHz. There also possibly exist two kinds of cavitating modes based on our experimental data.

Present study explains some experimental results on the aerodynamic noise of the cross-flow fan usually installed in the indoor unit of the room air-conditioners and provides a simple reduction method of radiating sound to decrease the total noise level. The spectra of the noise of the cross-flow fan were analyzed by the spectral decomposition method to characterize the generated sound. The unsteady fluctuating flow field was also measured using the I-type hot-wire probe. Comparing the spectral characteristics of the sound and the flow velocity, a useful noise reduction method was proposed, which bounds the region with a fence where the flow fluctuations were noticeably changed in the same fashion as the source spectral distribution functions vary. To validate the proposed method for reducing noise generated by the cross-flow fan, the sound pressure levels of the cross-flow fan system were compared with and without the bounding fence for various flow rates.

최근 환경 소음이 사회적인 문제로 대두되고 있는 가운데, 생활수준의 향상으로 저소음화에 대한 요구가 증가되고 있는 실정이다. 이와 같이 소음에 관한 일반인들의 관심이 높아지면서 생환주변에서 주요 소음원으로 지적되고 있는 회전기계, 특히 가전제품을 비롯한 유동관련 기계류의 소음을 낮추기 위한 노력이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 본 소평팬에 대한 연구에서는 음압 및 음향인텐시티를 이용하여 소음원을 해석하였다. 이때, 광센서를 이용한 축류형 팬의 동기화가 수행되어졌고, 팬 형상에서 정확한 소음원의 위치를 규명하기 위한 기록시간의 결정이 제안되어졌다. 소음 발생하는 위치를 규명하였고, 지향성 연구를 통하여 축류형 팬의 방사형태를 결정하였으며, 음의 흐름도를 가시화 하였다.

The major source of noise in the process of transporting liquids is related to the cavitation phenomenon. The control valve noise is mostly dominated by bubble dynamics under cavitating conditions. In this investigation, an orifice configuration is set-up to correlate its flow-field and acoustic signatures with those from a control valve device. The performance and noise characteristics form the orifice configuration in anechoic surroundings were measured to reveal the noise sources depending on pressure differences across the orifice configuration. The sound powers from the orifice configuration are effectively normalized using proposed scaling parameters. Flow-excited dynamic systems for which there is no strong coupling between the flow and the system response can be described using a linear source-filter model. On this assumption, the normalized sound powers can be decomposed of noise source function and a response function. To find noise sources, pressure spectra measured over a range of pressure differences are transformed into the product of two non-dimensional frequency function : $P_{ss}(He,f_{ca},x/D) = F(f_{ca})\;G(He,x/D)$. This scheme of finding noise sources is shown to be applicable to the cavitation noise from the control valve effectively Two kinds of cavitating modes based on our experimental data are found and discussed.

This paper presents an acoustic source localization technique on 2D cavity model in flow using a phased microphone array. Investigation was performed on cavity flows of open and closed types. The source distributions on 2D cavity flow were investigated in an anechoic open-jet wind tunnel. The array of microphones was placed outside the flow to measure the far field acoustic signals. The optimum sensor placement was decided by varying the relative location of the microphones to improve the spatial resolution. Pressure transducers were flush-mounted on the cavity surface to measure the near-filed pressures. It is shown that the propagated far field acoustic pressures are closely correlated to the near-field pressures and their spectral contents are affected by the cavity parameter L/D.
