Abstract

A noise modelling approach is proposed for bluff body wakes such as flow over a cylinder, where the primary noise source comprises large-scale coherent structures such as the vortex shedding flow feature. This phenomenon leads to Aeolian tones in the far-field, and is inherent in wake flows across a range of Reynolds numbers (Re), from low-Re to high-Re turbulent flows. The approach employs linear global stability analysis on the time-averaged mean flow, with amplitude calibration through two-point statistics, and far-field noise calculations from the global mode fluctuations by Curle’s analogy. The overall approach is tested for flow over a cylinder at Reynolds numbers Re = 150 and 13,300. For Re = 150 flow, noise directivity calculations from the present approach agree with direct far-field computations. For Re = 13,300 flow, the mean flow is obtained by particle image velocimetry (PIV). The linear global mode for spanwise-homogeneous-type fluctuations is obtained at the main, lift fluctuation frequency. Calibration of this global mode involves time-resolved PIV data in the streamwise-spanwise plane, which is Fourier transformed in frequency-spanwise wavenumber space. The noise calculations for this global mode are then found to be less than 1 dB off from the microphone measurements.

期刊介绍： Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics provides a forum for the cross fertilization of ideas, tools and techniques across all disciplines in which fluid flow plays a role. The focus is on aspects of fluid dynamics where theory and computation are used to provide insights and data upon which solid physical understanding is revealed. We seek research papers, invited review articles, brief communications, letters and comments addressing flow phenomena of relevance to aeronautical, geophysical, environmental, material, mechanical and life sciences. Papers of a purely algorithmic, experimental or engineering application nature, and papers without significant new physical insights, are outside the scope of this journal. For computational work, authors are responsible for ensuring that any artifacts of discretization and/or implementation are sufficiently controlled such that the numerical results unambiguously support the conclusions drawn. Where appropriate, and to the extent possible, such papers should either include or reference supporting documentation in the form of verification and validation studies.
