Modeling of Noise Reduction in Complex Multistream Jets
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents a low-order prediction scheme for the noise change in multistream jets when the nozzle geometry is altered from a known baseline. The essence of the model is to predict the changes in acoustics due to the redistribution of the mean flow as computed by a Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) solver. A RANS-based acoustic analogy framework is developed that addresses the noise in the polar direction of peak emission and uses the Reynolds stress as a time-averaged representation of the action of the coherent turbulent structures. The framework preserves the simplicity of the Lighthill acoustic analogy, using the free-space Green’s function, while accounting for azimuthal effects via special forms for the space-time correlation combined with sourceobserver relations based on the Reynolds stress distribution in the jet plume. Results are presented for three-stream jets with offset secondary and tertiary flows that reduce noise in specific azimuthal directions. The model reproduces well the experimental noise reduction trends. Principal mechanisms of noise reduction are elucidated.

Audio-Visual Speech Modeling for Continuous Speech Recognition
This paper describes a speech recognition system that uses both acoustic and visual speech information to improve the recognition performance in noisy environments. The system consists of three components: 1) a visual module; 2) an acoustic module; and 3) a sensor fusion module. The visual module locates and tracks the lip movements of a given speaker and extracts relevant speech features. This...
متن کاملShearlet-Based Adaptive Noise Reduction in CT Images
The noise in reconstructed slices of X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) is of unknown distribution, non-stationary, oriented and difficult to distinguish from main structural information. This requires the development of special post-processing methods based on the local statistical evaluation of the noise component. This paper presents an adaptive method of reducing noise in CT images employing th...

This study examines the connection between the mean ow shape and the acoustic emission of dual-stream jets. The experimental investigation encompassed jets issuing from coaxial, eccentric, and arcuate nozzles, as well as nozzles with de ectors in the secondary stream. The in ection points of the transverse velocity pro le were used to de ne the generalized secondary core (GSC) of the jet. In co...
