Investigation of flow features and acoustic radiation of a round cavity

In this work, the interaction between a boundary layer and a circular cylindrical cavity is studied. Experimental pressure and velocity results for a cavity of diameter 10 cm and depth ranging from 10 to 15 cm are described, for flow velocities between 50 and 110 m s^?1. This flow configuration is found to generate intense discrete depth- and flow-dependent tones, resulting in modes similar in appearance to Rossiter modes found in shallow rectangular cavities. Differences between the cylindrical cavity's mean flow and that of a similarly sized rectangular cavity are highlighted. The development of the shear layer is quantified, in terms of thickening and of velocity statistics profiles. Radial and azimuthal acoustic modes are observed in the acoustic field inside the cavity. A feedback model based on the coupled behaviour of the fundamental acoustic depth mode of the cavity and the large scale dynamics of the shear layer is constructed, and its response is compared to experimental data. A good qualitative agreement between available data and modeled behaviour is observed, allowing the two acoustic modes found in this work to be attributed to the interaction of the shear layer with the cavity's fundamental depth mode.

Effects of cavity resonances on sound transmission into a thin cylindrical shell

In the context of the transmission of airborne noise into an aircraft fuselage, a mathematical model is presented for the effects of internal cavity resonances on sound transmission into a thin cylindrical shell. The “noise reduction” of the cylinder is defined and computed, with and without including the effects of internal cavity resonances. As would be expected, the noise reduction in the absence of cavity resonances follows the same qualitative pattern as does transmission loss. Numerical results show that cavity resonances lead to wide fluctuations and a general decrease of noise reduction, especially at cavity resonances. Modest internal absorption is shown to greatly reduce the effect of cavity resonances. The effects of external airflow, internal cabin pressurization, and different acoustical properties inside and outside the cylinder are also included and briefly examined.     

Vibro-acoustic behaviors of an elastically restrained double-panel structure with an acoustic cavity of arbitrary boundary impedance

An analytical study on the vibro-acoustic behaviors of a double-panel structure with an acoustic cavity is presented. Unlike the existing studies, a structural–acoustic coupling model of an elastically restrained double-panel structure with an acoustic cavity having arbitrary impedance on sidewalls around the cavity is developed in which the two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) modified Fourier series are used to represent the displacement of the panels and the sound pressure inside the cavity, respectively. The unknown expansions coefficients are treated as the generalized coordinates and the Rayleigh–Ritz method is employed to determine displacement and sound pressure solutions based on the energy expressions for the coupled structural–acoustic system. The effectiveness and accuracy of the present model is validated by numerical example and comparison with finite element method (FEM) and existing analytical method, with good agreement achieved. The influence of key parameters on the vibro-acoustic behaviors and sound transmission of the double-panel structure is investigated, including: cavity thickness, boundary conditions, sidewall impedance, and the acoustic medium in the cavity.     

Eigenoscillations of an acoustic cavity with a local membrane

On the basis of Strutt’s approach, the problem of eigenoscillations of a gas in a cylindrical cavity with an internal membrane in the presence of a coaxial circular aperture in it (A.N. Fock’s problem) is analyzed. By an adequate numerical?analytical procedure, a high-precision solution is constructed to a boundary value problem for the eigenfrequencies and forms of lower order oscillation modes for various relative values of the aperture radius. A (qualitative and quantitative) correspondence is established to the results known in acoustics as applied to the concept of the “associated mass of an aperture.” New physical effects are obtained on the dependence of the frequencies and forms of long-wavelength oscillations of a gas on the geometric parameters of the system.     

A simplified finite element method for studying acoustic characteristics inside a car cavity

A simplified finite element method has been developed for analyzing the acoustic resonances of a prismatic car cavity. Use is made of the non-variant geometric and material properties of such a cavity in one direction (across the width of the car) and the solution of the full three-dimensional problem is related very simply to the solution of a single two-dimensional problem, with a consequent reduction of computing effort. Some experimental results obtained for a half-size model of a car cavity are compared with the finite element results. The accuracy of the finite element solution is assessed by analyzing a rectangular cavity and a cylindrical cavity, for which analytical solutions are already available.

Radiation from finite cylindrical shell with irregular-shaped acoustic enclosure

In practical situations, large machinery is usually placed in an underwater vessel and changes the acoustic enclosure shape into an irregular one. The existence of machinery causes the difficulties in expressing sound transmission and radiation analytically. In this study, the sound radiation of a cylindrical shell excited by an internal acoustic source is modeled and analyzed. The cylindrical shell contains a machine modeled as a rectangular object, which is attached to a shell with a spring-mass system. The acoustic field of the cavity is computed by the integro-modal approach. The effect of object size on the coupling between acoustic mode and structural mode is investigated. The relationship between object volume and sound radiation is also studied. Numerical results show that the existence of objects inside vessels leads to a more effective coupling between the structure and acoustic enclosure than the existence of no objects in a regular-shaped cavity(i.e. empty vessel).     

Acoustic characteristics analysis of slender cavity system with arbitrary impedance end conditions

A modeling method for the dynamic characteristics analysis of a slender acoustical cavity with impedance end conditions is established. In order to satisfy the continuity requirement at impedance ends for the first order differential of sound pressure, field function is constructed as the standard Fourier series supplemented by boundary smoothed auxiliary polynomials. System characteristic equation is derived by solving the governing differential equation and impedance acoustic boundary of slender acoustical cavity system simultaneously,relevant acoustical modal information is obtained via the state space solution procedure. In numerical simulation, various acoustic variables, such as acoustical modal frequency, sound pressure modal shape, sound pressure response and the particle velocity, are presented for the slender acoustical cavity system with different boundary conditions and compared with those results in the existing literature. The correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method are then fully validated.     

Noise transmission from a curved panel into a cylindrical enclosure: analysis of structural acoustic coupling

Much of the research on sound transmission through the aircraft fuselage into the interior of aircraft has considered coupling of the entire cylinder to the acoustic modes of the enclosure. Yet, much of the work on structural acoustic control of sound radiation has focused on reducing sound radiation from individual panels into an acoustic space. Research by the authors seeks to bridge this gap by considering the transmission of sound from individual panels on the fuselage to the interior of the aircraft. As part of this research, an analytical model of a curved panel, with attached piezoelectric actuators, subjected to a static pressure load was previously developed. In the present work, the analytical model is extended to consider the coupling of a curved panel to the interior acoustics of a rigid-walled cylinder. Insight gained from an accurate analytical model of the dynamics of the noise transmission from the curved panels of the fuselage into the cylindrical enclosure of an aircraft is essential to the development of feedback control systems for the control of stochastic inputs, such as turbulent boundary layer excitation. The criteria for maximal structural acoustic coupling between the modes of the curved panel and the modes of the cylindrical enclosure are studied. For panels with aspect ratios typical of those found in aircraft, results indicate that predominately axial structural modes couple most efficiently to the acoustic modes of the enclosure. The effects of the position of the curved panel on the cylinder are also studied. Structural acoustic coupling is found to not be significantly affected by varying panel position. The impact of the findings of this study on structural acoustic control design is discussed.

Helmholtz resonator lined with absorbing material

A closed-form, two-dimensional analytical solution is developed to investigate the acoustic performance of a concentric circular Helmholtz resonator lined with fibrous material. The effect of density and the thickness of the fibrous material in the cavity is examined on the resonance frequency and the transmission loss. With the expressions for the eigenvalue and eigenfunction in the cavity, the transmission loss is obtained for a piston-driven model by applying a pressure/velocity matching technique. The results from the analytical methods are compared to the numerical predictions from a three-dimensional boundary element method and the experimental data obtained from an impedance tube setup. It is shown that the acoustic performance of a Helmholtz resonator may be modified considerably by the density and thickness of the fibrous material without changing the cavity dimensions.     

Mathematical model for characterizing noise transmission into finite cylindrical structures

This work presents a theoretical study of the sound transmission into a finite cylinder under coupled structural and acoustic vibration. Particular attention of this study is focused on evaluating a dimensionless quantity, "noise reduction," for characterizing noise transmission into a small cylindrical enclosure. An analytical expression of the exterior sound pressure resulting from an oblique plane wave impinging upon the cylindrical shell is first presented, which is approximated from the exterior sound pressure for an infinite cylindrical structure. Next, the analytical solution of the interior sound pressure is computed using modal-interaction theory for the coupled structural acoustic system. These results are then used to derive the analytical formula for the noise reduction. Finally, the model is used to predict and characterize the sound transmission into a ChamberCore cylindrical structure, and the results are compared with experimental data. The effects of incidence angle and internal acoustic damping on the sound transmission into the cylinder are also parametrically studied.     

Dual Helmholtz resonator

Acoustic characteristics of a dual Helmholtz resonator which consists of a pair of cylindrical neck and cavity connected in series (neck-cavity-neck-cavity) are established primarily in terms of a lumped-parameter theory. The results are then compared to (a) a two-dimensional analytical approach by applying a pressure/velocity matching technique for a piston-driven model; (b) a three-dimensional boundary element method for a pipe-mounted model; and (c) experiments on an impedance-tube test setup with one fabricated prototype installed in a sidebranch orientation (pipe-mounted model). Closed-form expressions have been developed in the present study for the resonance frequencies and the transmission loss of this two degree-of-freedom system based on the Newton’s second law of motion for a lumped system. The resonance frequencies and the transmission loss from this theory agree well with the analytical results, while showing a reasonable comparison with both the numerical predictions and the measurements.

Interaction of nonlinear resonances in cavity QED

Strong coupling of the internal and external degrees of freedom of a cold atom to each other and to the spatially periodic field of the standing light wave in a high-finesse cavity is responsible for the dynamic instability of the atomic center-of-mass motion. Due to a weak interaction of the internal nonlinear resonances in the standard model of cavity QED, a stochastic layer appears, whose width in the semiclassical approximation is estimated in terms of the main parameters of the system: atomic recoil frequency, mean number of excitations, and detuning from the resonance. As a result, the atomic motion in the absolutely regular potential has the fractal character, with long Lévy flights alternating with small chaotic oscillations in potential wells.     

Vibro-acoustic response of an elliptical plate-cavity coupled system to external shock loads

A general fully coupled three-dimensional vibro-acoustic model is developed to investigate the forced non-stationary acousto-structural response of a thin elastic plate of elliptical planform which is backed by a reverberant, rigid, and finite (closed) elliptic cylindrical acoustic enclosure, while under the action of general external transverse loads of arbitrary temporal and spatial variations. The Laplace transform with respect to the time coordinate is invoked, and the classical method of separation of variables in elliptic coordinates is used to obtain the transformed solutions as a linear combination of even and odd modes in terms of products of radial and angular Mathieu functions. A linear system of coupled algebraic equations is ultimately obtained, which is truncated and then solved numerically by implementing Durbin’s numerical Laplace transform inversion scheme. Detailed numerical simulations are conducted for the temporal histories of plate center-point displacement and on-axis cavity acoustic pressure for air-coupled elliptic aluminum plates of selected aspect ratios when subjected to external loadings of practical interest (i.e., an impulsive point load, a uniformly distributed pulse load, and a blast load). Also, acoustic radiation into the backing enclosure is examined by using appropriate 2D images of the internal sound field for selected cavity depths and plate eccentricities. The presented results confirm that the acousto-elastic characteristics of the coupled plate-cavity system are significantly influenced by the plate aspect ratio, cavity depth and the transverse loading configuration. Validity of the work is established through the computations made by using a commercial finite element package.
