不同声强宽带噪声激励下结构参数对穿孔板消声器吸声特性影响的实验研究

高声压级激励下,由于非线性效应的存在,穿孔板消声器的吸声特性将发生改变,而改变量的大小与穿孔板的结构参数(穿孔率,孔径,板厚)密切相关。本文设计搭建了实验平台来研究结构参数的变化对穿孔板消声器的吸声特性的影响。根据实验结果发现:随着声压级的升高,由于穿孔板结构的非线性加剧,其声阻抗将发生变化,导致穿孔板消声器的吸收峰值降低,但吸收频带却拓宽了;在穿孔率一定的情况下,孔径越小的穿孔板消声器更适合低声压级环境工作;在孔径一定的情况下,穿孔率越低的穿孔板消声器也更适合低声压级环境工作。

Acoustic attenuation of hybrid silencers

The acoustic attenuation of a single-pass, perforated concentric silencer filled with continuous strand fibers is investigated first theoretically and experimentally. The study is then extended to a specific type of hybrid silencer that consists of two single-pass perforated filling chambers combined with a Helmholtz resonator. One-dimensional analytical and three-dimensional boundary element methods (BEM) are employed for the predictions of the acoustic attenuation in the absence of mean flow. To account for the wave propagation in absorbing fiber, the complex-valued characteristic impedance and wave number are measured. The perforation impedance facing the fiber is also presented in terms of complex-valued characteristic impedance and wave number. The effects of outer chamber diameter and the fiber density are examined. Comparisons of predictions with the experiments illustrate the need for multi-dimensional analysis at higher frequencies, while the one-dimensional treatment provides a reasonable accuracy at lower frequencies, as expected. The study also shows a significant improvement in the acoustic attenuation of the silencer due to fiber absorption. Multi-dimensional BEM predictions of a hybrid silencer demonstrate that a reactive component such as a Helmholtz resonator can improve transmission loss at low frequencies and a higher duct porosity may be effective at higher frequencies.     

Acoustic modeling of perforated plates with bias flow for Large-Eddy Simulations

The study of the acoustic effect of perforated plates by Large-Eddy Simulations is reported. The ability of compressible Large-Eddy Simulations to provide data on the flow around a perforated plate and the associated acoustic damping is demonstrated. In particular, assumptions of existing models of the acoustic effect of perforated plate are assessed thanks to the Large-Eddy Simulations results. The question of modeling the effect of perforated plates is then addressed in the context of thermo-acoustic instabilities of gas turbine combustion chambers. Details are provided about the implementation, validation and application of a homogeneous boundary condition modeling the acoustic effect of perforated plates for compressible Large-Eddy Simulations of the flow in combustions chambers cooled by full-coverage film cooling.     

Reduction of acoustic radiation by impedance control with a perforated absorber system

A model of sound radiation from an infinite plate with an absorptive facing is proposed and investigated theoretically from the viewpoint of acoustic power. Acoustic characteristics on the plate surface are represented by impedance derived from iso-absorption curves. A parametric study is carried out to clarify the effect of the impedance on the acoustic power. Results derived from this model show that acoustic radiation depends on change in impedance as well as the absorption coefficient, and there is a possibility of reducing the radiation from vibrating surface by introducing an appropriate impedance surface. In order to realize this effect, a model using a perforated board with a back cavity attached to the vibrating surface is proposed, in which the motion of the perforated board is made equal to that of the vibrating surface. To obtain fundamental data, a theoretical study is performed under a simplified condition, assuming an infinite plane piston. The calculated results are compared to experimental data measured by using an acoustic tube. The results, which are in good agreement in the reduction effect, show that this system can achieve the reduction of radiated sound power at arbitrary frequencies.     

Ultrasonics: (Wykeham Science Series No. 55) 1980, by A. P. Cracknell. London: Wykeham Publications (London) Ltd. (New York: Crane Russak & Company,Inc.) 200 pp.

A flat plate containing a two-dimensional rectangular cut-out was exposed to laminar grazing flow of water and a small oscillatory flow through the orifice of the cavity was applied resulting in a wave-like oscillation of the interface between the fluid at rest inside the cavity and the external flow. The interface was visualized by a thin filament of colour dye and the oscillation was recorded by means of a cine-camera. The experimental results are compared to the predictions of a model which had been developed in order to explain the effect of grazing flow on the acoustic impedance of small orifices.     

The impact of the neck material on the sound absorption performance of Helmholtz resonators

Helmholtz resonators with sound absorption materials filling the neck may have an improved sound absorption capacity. In this work, parallel perforated ceramics with different perforation diameters were installed into the neck of a Helmholtz resonator to improve its acoustic impedance to simultaneously achieve a better acoustic absorption coefficient and a wider absorption bandwidth. An experimental system was built to investigate the effect of the perforation diameters on the sound absorption performance of the resonator. It is found that nonlinear effects near the resonance frequency affect the resonator?s neck mouth impedance and further its sound absorption performance significantly. For frequency range 50–500 Hz, a model of the neck mouth impedance is developed based on a revised Forchheimer relationship. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical model.     

The acoustic impedance of perforated plates under various flow conditions relating to combustion chamber liners

The absorption of sound by cavities lined with perforated sheets depends crucially on the impedance of the orifices in the sheets. Although the theory for that absorption in the absence of a mean flow was well-developed in 1926, the presence of either a ‘bias’ flow through the orifices, or of a flow ‘grazing’ the sheet and deflecting the acoustic jets, radically alters the absorption. There are many theoretical and experimental treatments of the various cases, some of which are reviewed here. However, there has been little attempt to show how these data relate to one another, and this is also undertaken. The frequency dependence of the impedance is here expressed in terms of a Helmholtz number and used as the prime parameter for comparison. Theories for the cases where the mean flow is negligible are naturally based on the viscous penetration depth, whereas those for bias flow have a Strouhal number as the main parameter and are independent of viscosity. It is found that there are major uncertainties in the impedance for higher Strouhal numbers, when the bias flow is small. A criterion for transition to the no-bias flow theory is proposed. Theories and correlations for grazing flow rationally feature a Strouhal number based on the friction velocity in the duct, since this determines the boundary layer characteristics, but there should be a smooth transition to the case where the grazing flow can be considered negligible. Criteria for this are also proposed, based on the available experimental data. When both types of flow are present, particularly when the grazing velocity is larger than the bias velocity, the available data are very limited.
