矢量水听器线阵和弧线阵抗左右舷模糊性能分析

针对线阵声纳左右舷模糊问题,建立了基于矢量水听器直线阵 和 两种信息处理模式以及标量水听器弧线阵不同布阵方式的抗左右舷模糊性能数学模型,分析了不同布阵方式以及不同信息处理模式的抗左右舷模糊性能,并进行了仿真计算。分析和仿真结果表明,矢量水听器直线阵和标量水听器弧线阵在分辨左右舷性能和观察范围上各有优势。矢量水听器直线阵虽然可分辨左右舷且在作用距离上具有优势,但由于在一定扇面内分辨左右舷是依靠声纳方位历程图的明暗差异,在多目标情况下易造成声纳观察上的干扰;具有一定弧心角的标量水听器弧线阵,可以在更宽的扇面内具有抗左右舷模糊能力,但其以减小观察范围作为代价。     

利用拖线阵运动特性的阵形估计方法

有效估计阵形是提高机动条件下拖线阵声呐探测性能的关键,流体力学类阵形估计方法稳定性和可靠性欠佳,导致其难以应用于工程实际,该文针对此问题提出一种基于拖线阵运动特性的阵形估计方法。利用稳态振荡响应公式计算拖船回转机动时拖线阵稳态阵形特性,将转向机动过程中阵上各点运动状态划分为若干阶段,进而依据偏微分方程特征线理论计算各阶段的分界时刻,探究阵上相邻两点的沿阵切线方向差变化规律,最后通过计算当前阵上各点的沿阵方向实现阵形估计。计算机仿真和海上实验数据验证表明算法可行且有效,与传统的流体力学类阵形估计方法相比具有更高的稳定性和更好的工程应用前景。     

水听器非轴线布放时的拖线阵流噪声响应

对拖线阵流噪声理论做出两项改进。(1)对Corcos/Carpenter两种压力起伏模型以及相应的拖线阵流噪声响应进行了全面的比较;(2)讨论了有限水听器非轴线布放时的拖线阵流噪声响应,并导出了噪声功率谱的解析表达式。结果表明,这两种压力起伏模型的波数谱、流噪声响应具有一定差别;流噪声响应与拖曳速度、套管外径以及轴线偏移距离有着密切关系。基于Carpenter模型的数值分析表明,拖曳速度提高一倍,噪声功率谱增加约24dB,且随着套管外径的增大而减小、轴线偏移距离的增大而增大。套管外径以及轴线偏移距离对高频噪声的影响要大于其对低频噪声的影响。     

浅海舰船噪声声强流的垂直方向性

浅海环境中,确定性声源的多途声信号干涉使得接收点处声强流的方向发生改变,不再与声源位置处的声强流方向一致。只测量声场的标量声强时,无法得到接收点处声强流的垂直方向性,而基于简正波矢量场建模和仿真,可获得理想条件下宽带点声源激发声场声强流的垂直方向性。本文采用单矢量水听器进行海上实验,获得了海洋环境噪声和干扰条件下舰船噪声声强流的垂直方向性。仿真和实验结果表明:远场条件下,浅海干涉现象引起接收点处声强流的方向(极角)随频率和距离变化,其时间-频率分布呈现与LOFAR谱干涉条纹相似的条纹,声强流的极角值主要分布在70?～110?范围内。

Flow induced noise calculations for non-axially distributed hydrophones in towed arrays

Two improvements are put forward on the analyses of flow induced noise in towed arrays. First, the differences between Corcos/Carpenter pressure fluctuation models have been discussed at length, as well as flow induced noise calculated with these two models. Second, flow induced noise received by the finite hydrophones distributed non-axially is discussed and the relevant power spectrum is deduced. The results show that there are some disparities between the wavenumber spectrums and the responses of flow induced noise of these two models. Flow induced noise is closely related with the tow speed, the tube radius and the off-axis distance. The numerical analyses with Carpenter model indicate that the power spectrum of flow induced noise will increase 24 dB approximately with the tow speed doubled, decrease with the radius of the tube, and increase with the off-axis distance. The tube radius and the off-axis distance have greater influence on the high-frequency components than on the low-frequency components.

Acoustic multipath structure in direct zone of deep water and bearing estimation of tow ship noise of towed line array

In the towed line array sonar system, the tow ship noise is the main factor that affects the sonar performance. Conventional noise cancelling methods assume that the noise is towards the endfire direction of the array. An acoustic experiment employing a towed line array is conducted in the western Pacific Ocean, and a strange bearing-splitting phenomenon of the tow ship noise is observed in the array. The tow ship noise is split into multiple noise signals whose bearings are distributed between 10° and 90° deviating from the endfire direction. The multiple interferences increase the difficulty in recognizing the target for the sonar operator and noise cancellation. Therefore, making the mechanism clear and putting forward the tow ship noise splitting bearing estimation method are imperative. In this paper, the acoustic multi-path structure of the tow ship in deep water is analyzed. Then it is pointed out that the bearing-splitting phenomenon is caused by the main lobe of direct rays and bottom-reflected rays, as well as several side lobes of direct rays. Meanwhile, the indistinguishability between the elevation angle and the bearing angle due to the axial symmetry of a strict horizontal line array causes the bearing to deviate from the endfire direction. Based on the theory above, a method of estimating bearing of the tow ship noise in deep water is proposed. The theoretical analysis results accord with the experimental results, which helps to identify the target and provide correct initial bearing guidance for noise cancelation methods.     

利用矢量海洋环境噪声提取声场格林函数

考虑到矢量水听器在垂直方向上具有8字形指向性,能够有效抑制远方非平稳噪声源的干扰,提出了一种矢量环境噪声相关函数(NCF)提取声场时域格林函数(TDGF)的方法。基于简正波理论建立了声压和垂直振速垂直相关性模型。在此基础上,给出了声压和垂直振速相关函数提取声场纵向格林函数的过程.数值仿真对比和实验数据分析表明,相对于声压提取方法,垂直振速提取方法能够有效消除直达波前出现的亮纹与亮区干扰。此外,对于同等时间长度噪声序列,声压提取方法只提取到直达波路径,而垂直振速提取方法还提取到了我们更为关心的海底反射路径。利用直达波与海底反射波到达时延差估计的海深与实测海深吻合较好。     

Sound field measurement in a double layer cavitation cluster by rugged miniature needle hydrophones

During multi-bubble cavitation the bubbles tend to organize themselves into clusters and thus the understanding of properties and dynamics of clustering is essential for controlling technical applications of cavitation. Sound field measurements are a potential technique to provide valuable experimental information about the status of cavitation clouds. Using purpose-made, rugged, wide band, and small-sized needle hydrophones, sound field measurements in bubble clusters were performed and time-dependent sound pressure waveforms were acquired and analyzed in the frequency domain up to 20 MHz. The cavitation clusters were synchronously observed by an electron multiplying charge-coupled device (EMCCD) camera and the relation between the sound field measurements and cluster behaviour was investigated. Depending on the driving power, three ranges could be identified and characteristic properties were assigned. At low power settings no transient and no or very low stable cavitation activity can be observed. The medium range is characterized by strong pressure peaks and various bubble cluster forms. At high power a stable double layer was observed which grew with further increasing power and became quite dynamic. The sound field was irregular and the fundamental at driving frequency decreased. Between the bubble clouds completely different sound field properties were found in comparison to those in the cloud where the cavitation activity is high. In between the sound field pressure amplitude was quite small and no collapses were detected.
