影响反声障板增益的因素

障板的反射系数一般是指声波垂直入射时的反射声波与入射声波的幅值比,不能全面反映障板的使用效果。在实际应用中,障板的实际增益受到障板自身的声特性、换能器到障板的距离、声波入射角度、声波频率等众多因素的影响,反射系数很高的反声障板,实际增益却可能为负。本文使用相对灵敏度级(Relative Sensitivity Level)来衡量反声障板的"真实"增益,论述了相对灵敏度级的计算方法,对影响反声障板增益的因素进行了研究。     

FREE VIBRATION ANALYSIS OF BAFFLED LIQUID-STORAGE TANKS BY THE STRUCTURAL-ACOUSTIC FINITE ELEMENT FORMULATION

In fluid-structure interaction systems, baffles as a dynamic damping device are being widely used to suppress the fluid sloshing motion. Meanwhile, natural and dynamic behaviors of such systems are significantly influenced by the baffle parameters, such as the baffle number, the installation location, the inner-hole diameter and the liquid fill height. This paper intends to numerically investigate the parametric eigen characteristics, by the coupled structural-acoustic finite element method (FEM), of baffled cylindrical liquid-storage tank. According to the symmetric two-field formulation, a test FEM program is developed, in which the reduced integration for avoiding the shear and membrane locking and the modified shear correction factor as well as degenerated 8- and 6-node shell elements and 3-D trilinear acoustic elements are used. Through the comparison with the available analytic solutions of no-baffled axisymmetric tank, the validity of the test program and theoretical work is verified. Next, with the verified test FEM program, various combinations of major baffle parameters are intensively examined, in order for the parametric baffle effects on the natural frequency of baffled tanks.

An approximate method to acoustic radiation problems: element radiation superposition method

An approximate method is brought forward to predict the acoustic pressure based on the surface velocity. It is named Element Radiation Superposition Method （ERSM）. The study finds that each element in Acoustic Transfer Vector （ATV） equals the acoustic pressure radiated by the corresponding surface element vibrating in unit velocity and other surface elements keep still, that is the acoustic pressure radiated by the corresponding baffled piston vibrating in unit velocity. So, it utilizes the acoustic pressure radiated by a baffled piston to establish the transfer relationship between the surface velocity and the acoustic pressure. The total acoustic pressure is obtained through summing up the products of the surface velocity and the transfer quantity. It adopts the regular baffle to fit the actual baffle in order to calculate the acoustic pressure radiated by the baffled piston. This approximate method has larger advantage in calculating speed and memory space than Boundary Element Method. Numerical simulations show that this approximate method is reasonable and feasible.     

An improved model for the acoustic radiation impedance of the mouth based on an equivalent electrical network

This paper proposes a model for acoustic radiation impedance of the mouth in the form of the equivalent electrical network. Five known models of radiation impedance are compared: radiation of a circular piston set in a spherical baffle: radiation of a circular piston set in an infinite baffle, the Flanagan model, the Wakita and Fant model, and the Stevens, Kasowski and Fant model. The proposed model most accurately approximates the radiation impedance of a circular piston set in a spherical baffle. Differences between the acoustic resistance and reactance calculated by the proposed model and the piston set in a spherical baffle of 9 cm radius are relatively small in the kr < 2 region. The deviations in calculated values of the acoustic resistance and the reactance are within ±0.023 × ρc/A_m and ±0.008 × ρc/A_m, respectively, where A_m denotes the area of the mouth aperture. The accuracy of the proposed model is demonstrated by vowel formant frequency calculations. Differences in formant frequencies calculated by applying the proposed model and the piston set in a spherical baffle model are less than 0.3%.

Impedance of pistons on a two-layer medium in a planar infinite rigid baffle

An integral transform technique is used to develop a general solution for the impedance of rigid pistons acting on a two-layer medium. The medium consists of a semi-infinite acoustic fluid on a viscoelastic thick plate in a rigid infinite baffle. The stresses acting on the planar baffle, as a result of piston motion, are determined using theory of linear elasticity and are therefore unrestricted in terms of applicable frequency range. The special case of a circular piston is considered and expressions for the self-and mutual impedances are developed and evaluated numerically. Numerical results are compared with classical piston impedance functions and finite-element model results. At low frequencies (k(0)a<1), the self-impedances vary significantly from the classical piston impedance functions due to the shear properties of the viscoelastic medium.

Acoustic radiation from a simple structure in supersonic flow

It is well established that fluid flow can have significant effects on structural acoustic behavior, as is the fact that induced coupling between discrete modes of vibration becomes significant as flow velocity increases. To date, work in this area has been confined to subsonic flows, with the effects on sound radiation efficiency and sound power radiation quantified and compared for various subsonic flow speeds. The purpose of this work is to study the effects that supersonic flow has on these structural acoustic phenomena, along with an investigation of the uncoupled behavior of single modes in the transonic region. Theoretical development of the equations governing the vibration of a simply supported plate in an infinite baffle and an aerodynamic system that models a semi infinite flowing medium along with the method for coupling these systems is included. Computational results are presented illustrating the behavior of the uncoupled modes in the transonic region and the uncoupled and coupled effects on the structural response and sound power radiation as well as a study of the radiation efficiency of the coupled system.     

Acoustic damping enhanced by gaps in baffled injectors in an acoustic chamber

Acoustic damping enhanced by gap width in baffled injectors is investigated numerically, which are installed to suppress pressure oscillations in a model acoustic chamber. The previous experimental works reported that baffled injectors show larger acoustic damping with gaps between adjoining injectors than baffled injectors without the gap or conventional baffles. Acoustic-damping behaviors of baffled injectors are simulated numerically and the damping mechanism is examined. Damping factors are calculated as a function of baffle gap and it is found that the maximum acoustic damping is observed at a gap of 0.1-0.2 mm. The enhanced damping by gaps is attributed to viscous dissipation on the surfaces of the injectors or baffle blades. The optimum gap for maximum damping depends on the viscosity of the medium in the chamber and it increases with the viscosity. As a quantitative parameter of viscous dissipation, the dissipation rate of kinetic energy is calculated as a function of baffle gap. The parameter shows its maximum value at a specific gap and especially, the viscous dissipation rate has the same profile as that of damping factor. It verifies that the enhanced damping by gaps is attributed to the viscous dissipation of acoustic energy increased by gaps in baffled injectors.     

Analysis of acoustic directivity of spherical cap transducers

In order to study the acoustic radiation from the spherical cap transducer,a theoretical model is used by solving the wave equation in spherical coordinates using the method of separation of variables,based on the spherical harmonic Fourier transform and boundary condition.The calculation formulas for the far field radiated pressure and directivity of spherical cap are derived.Some theoretical results are presented in the form of far-field directivity patterns of the spherical cap transducer for various polar angles of the spherical cap,radii of sphere baffle and operating frequencies.Both the diameter of the sphere baffle and the wavelength determine the directivity of acoustic radiation from a spherical cap.When the frequency is lower or the wavelength is longer than the diameter of the sphere baffle,the acoustic radiation from a spherical cap is omnidirectional.With the increase of the frequency or the diameter of the sphere baffle,the acoustic radiation from a spherical cap is more directional and the beamwidth more tends to spherical cap angle.Furthermore,the ripple in the beam is more obvious.The high frequency spherical cap transducer was fabricated and the directivity pattern was tested and the measurement data is shown to coincide with the theoretical results.This research can provide a guideline for designing the spherical cap transducers and arrays.     

Sound radiation from a cylindrical transducer filled with an elastic medium

An approximate method is proposed for calculating the acoustic field produced by a finite-height cylindrical piezoceramic transducer with allowance for the radiation from the ends of its inner volume that is filled with an elastic medium characterized by an arbitrary Poisson’s ratio. Structural features of the transducer (the presence of a sealing compound and an inner baffle) are taken into account. Good agreement is obtained between calculations and experiment for two transducers (a short one with a height-to-radius ratio h/a≈1 and a long one with h/a≈3) whose inner cavities are filled with either water or foam plastic.

A numerical study of the effects of the vertical baffle on liquid sloshing in two-dimensional rectangular tank

The liquid sloshing in a moving partially filled rectangular tank with a vertical baffle is investigated. A numerical algorithm based on the volume of fluid (VOF) technique is used to study the nonlinear behavior of liquid sloshing. The numerical model solves the complete Navier–Stokes equations in primitive variables by using of finite difference approximations with the moving coordinate system. The ratio of baffle height to the initial liquid depth has been changed in the range of 0≤h_B/h≤1.2. The critical baffle height to reach the roof of the tank and the baffle height beyond the liquid does not get over the baffle anymore have been investigated. The vortex originated by the flow separation from the baffle tip became weaker with increasing the baffle height. In order to assess the accuracy of the method used, some results with baffle height are compared with the experimental results. Comparisons show good agreement for slosh loads in the cases investigated. The free surface elevation and the time variations of pressures have been also presented.     

On the sound fields of infinitely long strips

Exact solutions are derived for sound radiation from four kinds of infinitely-long strips: namely a rigid strip in a baffle of finite width, a resilient strip in free space, and a resilient or rigid strip in an infinite baffle. In one limit, the strip in a finite baffle becomes a rigid strip in free space and in the other, a line source in a finite baffle. Here "rigid" means that the surface velocity is uniform, whereas "resilient" means that the surface pressure is uniform, and the strip is assumed to have zero mass or stiffness, as if a force were driving the acoustic medium directly. According to the Babinet-Bouwkamp principle, radiation from a resilient strip in an infinite baffle is equivalent to diffraction of a plane wave through a slit in the same. Plots are shown for the radiation impedances, far-field directivity patterns, and on-axis pressure responses of the four kinds of strip. A simple relationship between the radiation admittance of the rigid strip in an infinite baffle and the resilient strip in free space is presented. The two-dimensional rectangular wave functions developed in this paper can be applied to related problems.     

Using shock waves to improve the sound absorbing efficiency of closed-cell foams

Producing closed-cell foams is generally cheaper and simpler than open-cell foams. However, the acoustic and filtration efficiency of closed-cell foam materials is generally poor because it is very difficult for fluid or acoustic waves to penetrate into the material. A new method using shock waves to remove the membranes closing the cell pores (known as reticulation) and thus to improve the acoustic and filtration behavior of closed-cell foam material is presented. Various shock treatments have been carried out on polyurethane and polyimide foams and the following conclusions were drawn: (1) reticulation efficiency increased and thus the airflow resistivity and tortuosity decreased when increasing the amplitude of the shock treatment; (2) the rigidity of the foam is decreased; (3) the process is reliable and repeatable and (4) obtained acoustic performance is comparable to classical thermal reticulation.     

Soft phonon anomalies in the relaxor ferroelectric Pb(Zn(1/3)Nb(2/3))0.92Ti0.08O3

Neutron inelastic scattering measurements of the polar transverse optic phonon mode dispersion in the cubic relaxor Pb(Zn(1/3)Nb(2/3))0.92Ti0.08O3 at 500 K reveal anomalous behavior in which the optic branch appears to drop precipitously into the acoustic branch at a finite value of the momentum transfer q = 0.2 A(-1) measured from the zone center. We speculate that this behavior is the result of nanometer-sized polar regions in the crystal.     

Near fields scattered by an underwater finite cylindrical baffle

In this work,acoustic vector characteristics of near fields scattered by an underwater finite cylindrical baffle are investigated theoretically and experimentally.The analytic expressions for the scattered pressure and particle velocity are derived using the elastic thin shell theory.Calculations are presented for the scattered near fields of the pressure,the particle velocity and the intensity.It is found that the pressure and the particle velocity fields near the surface of the cylindrical baffle are characterized by complex interference structure,particle velocity directions and the source bearings are not consistent.The phase difference between the pressure and the particle velocity is not zero and the intensity vector does not reflect the sound bearings.It can be noted that the distortions of the fields will make the original vector signal processing method based on the free space assumption be no longer applicable in the presence of the cylindrical baffle.These results can serve as a basis of the application for the acoustic vector sensor on board.     

Acoustic properties of the disordered relaxor ferroelectric PbSc1/2Ta1/2O3

The behavior of acoustic phonons in crystals of a relaxor ferroelectric, namely, the lead scandium tantalate PbSc_1/2Ta_1/2O₃ (PST), is studied in the vicinity of the diffuse phase transition. The behavior of longitudinal and transverse acoustic phonons in a PST single crystal is examined using Brillouin scattering. The phonon subsystem is found to behave anomalously in the vicinity of T = 297 K, which can probably be assigned to the existence of a phase transition. Analysis of the results obtained yields the values of the elastic moduli C₁₁, C₁₂, and C₄₄ for the cubic phase of the crystal over a wide temperature range.
