In order to improve the efficiency of the double-load method for measuring the transmission loss of the muffler, this paper proposes a single-step measurement method for transmission loss of muffler. In addition,\u0000 the simulation model of the single-step measurement method is established based on the finite element acoustic analysis. For the model, the calculation method of the transmission loss of the muffler is deduced from the theoretical knowledge of the transfer matrix. In the simulation, the sound\u0000 pressure data of six positions in the model are obtained, and the transfer matrix is used to calculate the transmission loss of the muffler. Then, two simulation comparison experiments were done. In order to verify the validity of the single-step measurement method, the first comparison experiment\u0000 was to compare the transmission loss of the muffler simulated by the single-step measurement method with their theoretical transmission loss in the finite element acoustic analysis. The results of the simulation validation test cases showed that the transmission loss of the muffler obtained\u0000 by the single-step measurement method was consistent with the theoretical value. The second comparison experiment was to compare the transmission loss obtained by the single-step measurement method with the transmission loss obtained by the double-load method. The results of the simulation\u0000 validation test cases showed that at certain frequencies, the transmission loss obtained by the single-step measurement method was more accurate than the transmission loss obtained by the double-load method. In conclusion, the single-step measurement method proposed in this paper can accurately\u0000 obtain the transmission loss of the muffler with only one measurement, which improves the measurement efficiency.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46868698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For enhancing the acoustic stealth performance of a submarine, it is necessary to research an innovative design scheme of the conning tower to reduce its bistatic target strength (TS). The aim of this\u0000 work is to reduce the bistatic TS of a conning tower by varying its geometry and streamlining. The accuracy in modeling the acoustic scattering of a conning tower using the Kirchhoff approximation (KA) was validated, compared with finite element analysis. Several angular conning tower geometries\u0000 were designed to analyze the effect of streamlining and the number of lateral facets on TS using the KA method. In consideration of the actual situation, the acoustic effect of backing medium was analyzed by comparing water-filled elastic hulls with rigid hulls. From the observed TS calculation\u0000 results, it is shown that the non-streamlined four lateral-facet conning tower geometries are optimal for acoustic stealth performance during the range of receiving angles from -30 degrees to 30 degrees.

This hybrid method is ideal for creating simple auralizable approximations of complex acoustic systems. The process consists of four steps:\u0000 1) creating separate low- frequency and high-frequency responses of the system of interest, 2) interpolating between the two responses to get a single broadband magnitude response, 3) introducing amplitude modulation to the high-frequency portion of the response, and 4) calculating approximate\u0000 phase information. Once the appropriate frequency response is obtained, an inverse fast Fourier transform is applied to obtain an impulse response. An experimental setup of an acoustic cavity with one flexible wall is used to validate the hybrid method. The simulated and measured impulse responses\u0000 are both convolved with various excitation signals, so the validity of the approach could be assessed by listening. Listening tests confirm that the method is able to produce realistic auralizations. The degree of realism is subject to a few limitations, such as pitch differences and dependence\u0000 on the presence of transients in the excitation signal, but these limitations are incidental and only indirectly related to the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48154964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, their improved aerodynamic performance and reduced fan noise are important technical issues. This study developed a methodology for the experimental determination of\u0000 the pressure power spectral density (PSD) of a flat plate based on a wind tunnel experiment and the broadband noise generated from a low-pressure fan predicted based on its pressure PSD. In the proposed methodology, the broadband noise of the fan was evaluated by superimposing the predicted\u0000 broadband noise of the divided blade elements in the impeller. Using this methodology, the broadband noise of the objective fan could be predicted via the wind tunnel experiment and the representative internal flow properties of the fan such as relative velocity and deviation angle. Moreover,\u0000 the relationship between the broadband noise in the design and off-design conditions and the flow regime were analyzed by referring to the parameters for the prediction. In the off-design low flow rate condition, the flow around the impeller became a swirling flow owing to the increasing back\u0000 pressure, and the fan noise in the off-design condition increased, especially in the low-frequency domain. The broadband noise was generated by leakage flow in the vicinity of the leading edge at the blade tip which interfered with the adjacent blade. Therefore, the mechanism of broadband\u0000 noise generation in the off-design condition distinguished the mechanism of trailing edge noise. As indicated by the results of the predicted broadband noise comparison, the suggested experimental methodology best represented the measured noise spectra in the design condition. The experimental\u0000 pressure PSD showed that the broadband noise in the design condition was affected by the trailing edge noise generated at the blade tip.","PeriodicalId":49748,"journal":{"name":"Noise Control Engineering Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42992895","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
