Abstract
In this study, a nonlinear eigenvalue solver for the numerical solution of thermoviscous acoustic problems based on the equivalent source method (ESM) is developed. By using the idea of the ESM, the solutions to the thermoviscous formulations are coupled on the surface of the structure through the isothermal and non-slip conditions. The frequency-dependent nature of the transfer matrix in the system equation of ESM gives rise to a nonlinear eigenvalue problem (NLEP), presenting an additional challenge in the eigenvalue analysis. To tackle this issue, the contour integral method is employed to convert the NLEP into a generalized eigenvalue problem (GEVP). This contour integral method is effective for accurately identifying complex acoustic eigenvalues, which are frequently encountered in the context of thermoviscous acoustic problems. Numerical examples are provided to validate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method, while simulations involving acoustic black hole and acoustic-structural interaction demonstrate its potential applicability in engineering applications.
