A method of the low-frequency noise reduction in an enclosure by using an array of Helmholtz resonator is presented. An integral form of equation, which represents the acoustical coupling between the internal sound field and the resonator array, is formulated so that the boundary element method can be applied to solve the coupling problem. It is shown that the resonator array on the surface of the enclosure can be regarded as impedance patches on the boundary element. Experiments on a simple enclosure acoustically coupled with an array of resonators are conducted to verify the method. The predicted noise reduction by the boundary element method shows good agreement with the measured one. The effects of the resistance of resonators as well as the number of resonators on the noise reduction are demonstrated. As a practical example, the presented method is applied to the payload fairing of a space launcher with resonator arrays. It is demonstrated that the resistance of resonators affects significantly the required number of resonators to achieve a desired noise reduction.

Combustion instability is one of the most difficult problems in the development of liquid rocket engines. One of the damping devices for combustion instability is helmholtz resonator. Orifice length is one of factors for designing it. In this study, effects of orifice length are investigated by an experimental tests and a linear acoustic analysis. Damping capacity was improved by the increase of the length of resonator. And the results of an experimental tests and a linear acoustic analysis are showed similar tendency. Also, effects of supplied SPL(sound pressure level) are investigated and the results show that nonlinear effects are increase by the increase of supplied SPL.

The reduction of the airborne noise level is essential to the comfortability for mien and passengers in ships. In this paper, the acoustic characteristics on the multilayered acoustic panel with the Helmholtz resonator was described analytically and experimentally. The design software based on the Transfer Matrix Analysis(TMA) method for the acoustic enclosing panel was developed. According to the change of the design parameters of the panel, verious transmission losses were obtained using the developed software. As a result, it was verified that the acoustic characteristics of the composite panel was excellent in comparison with the conventional acoustic partitioning structures. This panel can be applicable to the acoustic enclosure system.

The gaseous fuel injection(GFI) type of LPG fuel-supply system is more advantageous than liquefied fuel injection(LFI) from the viewpoint of durability and cost reduction. However, compared with LFI types of LPG fuel-supply systems, in the GFI systems it is difficult to achieve precision fuel metering because of the compressible characteristic of the gaseous fuel. In this study, a Helmholtz resonator is proposed as an appropriate system for precision fuel metering in GFI systems, and the effects of the Helmholtz resonator on the fuel metering are simulated by the commercial flow-network-analysis package Flowmaster.

Based on the facts that significant parts of the harbor response spectrum usually reside in the vicinity of the Helmholtz mode in the eastern part of Korea. economically feasible redemption measures of seiches for malfunctioned harbors already in service is proposed by extending the wisdom of perforated breakwaters and adjusting the width of entrance channel as a control tool. It turns out that as the entrance channel is getting narrower, the harbor system is getting slender due to the increase of added hydrodynamic length so that harbor response can be effectively diminished and separated from the incident wave spectrum where considerable amount of wave energy is located at the lower frequency range.

Acoustic design parameters of a Helmholtz resonator are studied experimentally and numerically for acoustic stability in a model acoustic tube. Acoustic damping is quantified by the amplitude of the fluid velocity in mass-spring-damper system. The length of an orifice, the volume of a cavity, and the diameters of an orifice and a cavity in the resonator are selected as design parameters for tuning of the resonator. It is found that acoustic damping capacity is increased by shorter orifice and longer cavity in the resonator. As the ratio of the orifice diameter to the cavity diameter increases in the resonator, the damping capacity decreases.

High-frequency combustion instability results from a feedback coupling between the unsteady heat release rate and the acoustic waves formed resonantly in the combustion chamber. It can be modeled as thermoacoustic problems with various degrees of the assumptions and simplifications. This paper presents numerical analysis of self-excited combustion instabilities in a variable-length lean-premixed combustor and designs of passive control devices such as baffle and acoustic resonators in a framework of 3-D FEM Helmholtz solver. Nonlinear behaviors such as steep-fronted shock waves and a finite amplitude limit cycle are also investigated with a compressible flow simulation technique.

Buffeting noise through a rear window in an automobile is investigated by using lattice Boltzmann method. The generation mechanism of the buffeting noise can be understood as the resonance mechanism in a Helmholtz resonator, which is driven by the convecting vortex in a shear-layer flow over the neck of the resonator. Two methods to suppress the buffeting noise are proposed, and their effects are quantitatively assessed. Opening front window reduces the observed buffeting tonal noise by 25 dB and the overall SPL by 4 dB, and the installation of a Helmholtz resonator acting as a dynamic damper reduces the tonal component that by 35 dB and the overall SPL by 10 dB.

담수가 해수에서 흘러드는 하구에서는 성층이 관측되며 이것은 난류의 미세구조를 변화시키는 주요 원인으로 작용한다. 이러한 성층화 현상은 하구 내 부유사의 군집인 하구 최대혼탁수(Estuarine Turbidity Maximum, ETM)의 형성에 영향을 주게 된다. 본 연구는 성층의 하구 최대 혼탁수 생성 메커니즘에 관심을 두고 수치모델링을 활용한 미세 난류의 부유사 거동 분석에 초점을 두었다. 성층과 전단응력 사이의 난류 혼합을 대표하는 유동인 켈빈-헬름홀츠 불안정성(Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability)을 도입하고 성층 경계면 근처에서 부유사의 이송을 높은 레이놀즈수(Reynolds number) 유동에서 RANS(Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes Simulation)보다 다양한 규모의 에너지 획득이 가능하여 미세 난류 구조 재현에 장점을 갖는 Large-eddy Simulation(LES)를 활용하여 모사하였다. 여기에서, 부유사는 주위 유동의 물리적 특성 변화에 영향을 미치지 않는 Passive scalar로 가정하였으며 $6^{th}$-order Lagrangian 다항식 보간법을 적용하여 입자의 이동 속도를 계산하고 이를 시간에 대해 적분함으로써 이동 궤적을 추적하였다. 수치 모델 결과 Lock-exchange 유동 내에서 켈빈-헬름홀츠 불안정성이 발생함에 따라 경계면 주위에 위치한 부유사가 billow 내에서 트랩핑(trapping)되는 것을 보여주어 KH-billow 혹은 braids 내의 미세 난류에 의한 영향이 확인되었다. 본 연구에서는 LES를 활용하여 성층류 및 성층류 내의 부유사 혼합을 모사하여 난류의 정도에 따른 이동 궤적의 차이에 대해서 분석함으로써 성층의 난류 강도 저하에 따른 부유사의 군집으로의 영향에 대해 서술한다.

We constructed the large 3-axis square Helmholtz coil system for the power frequency magnetic field immunity test. We measured the coil factors and magnetic field homogeneities of the fabricated 3-axis square Helmholtz coil. The experimental results for the field homogeneities are in agreement with the theoretical data. From these results, we determined the effective areas for the immunity test. We also confirmed that the low current using the multi-turns coil can be applicable to the immunity test for the high field in short duration.
