Near field radiation behavior of an unbaffled square plate with free edges, which is excited by a harmonic force at its midpoint, is analytically, computationally and experimentally studied. Emphasis is on the applicability of simplified analytical models to predict the near field sound pressures and spatially-averaged surface and acoustic intensities. First, the plate is computationally discretized into equal segments that are replaced by simple, phase-correlated discrete acoustic sources. Piston radiator models (with and without mutual radiation impedance terms) as well as pulsating sphere models are employed to exhibit the contribution of mutual impedance terms. The near field pressure and spatially-averaged intensity radiated from phase-correlated discrete sources are calculated based on the premise that their individual phases are obtained from the plate (surface) vibration measurements. The importance of mutual impedance terms on the near field radiation is highlighted. Second, the two-microphone acoustic intensity and the surface intensity techniques are employed to determine the spatially-averaged intensity spectra, like analytical models. Results are examined on both narrow and 1/3 octave band bases up to 1600 Hz covering radiation from several plate vibration modes. Finally, an indirect boundary element model is used to predict spatially-averaged intensity spectra, as well as to simulate the two-microphone method given surface vibration data. All predictions are compared with analogous measurements. Discrepancies between theory and experiments (and even between two intensity measurements) are discussed along with possible sources of error. (C) 2010 Institute of Noise Control Engineering.

Analysis of thin walled open section tapered beams using hybrid stress finite element method
Akman, Mehmet Nazım; Oral, Süha; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008)
In this thesis, hybrid stress finite element is formulated for the analysis of the isotropic, thin walled, open section beams with variable cross sections. The beam element has two nodes each having seven degrees of freedom. Assumption of stress field is sufficient to determine the element stiffness matrix. Axial, flexural and torsional effects are taken into account in the analysis. The methodology can be applied both to the tapered and the uniform beams. Throughout this study, firstly element cross-sectio...

Subsonic flowfields over a close-coupled, delta canard-wing-body configuration at angles of attack of 20, 24,2, and 30 deg are computed using the OVERFLOW Navier-Stokes solver Computed flowfields are presented in terms of particle traces, surface streamlines, and leeward-side surface pressure distributions for the canard-on and -off configurations. The interaction between the canard and the wing vortices, wing vortex breakdown, and the influence of the canard on vortex breakdown are identified, The comparis...
Direct numerical simulation of liquid flow in a horizontal microchannel
Kükrer, Cenk Evren; Tarı, İlker; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2005)
Numerical simulations of liquid flow in a micro-channel between two horizontal plates are performed. The channel is infinite in streamwise and spanwise directions and its height is taken as m, which falls within the dimension ranges of microchannels. The Navier-Stokes equations with the addition of Brinkman number (Br) to the energy equation are used as the governing equations and spectral methods based approach is applied to obtain the required accuracy to handle liquid flow in the microchannel. It is know...
Prediction of ducted diaphragm noise using a stochastic approach with adapted temporal filters
Karban, Ugur; Schram, Christophe; Sovardi, Carlo; Polifke, Wolfgang (SAGE Publications, 2019-01-01)
The noise production by ducted single- and double-diaphragm configurations is simulated using a stochastic noise generation and radiation numerical method. The importance of modeling correctly the anisotropy and temporal de-correlation is discussed, based on numerical results obtained by large eddy simulation. A new temporal filter is proposed, designed to provide the targeted spectral decay of energy in an Eulerian reference frame. An anisotropy correction is implemented using a non-linear model. The acous...

Heat transfer analysis of two-dimensional, incompressible, constant property, hydrodynamically developed, thermally developing, single phase laminar flow in microtubes and microchannels between parallel plates with negligible axial conduction is performed for constant wall temperature and constant wall heat flux thermal boundary conditions for slip flow regime. Fully developed velocity profile is determined analytically, and energy equation is solved by using finite difference method for both of the geometr...
