The Role of Stack Non Acoustic Parameters on Thermodynamic Perfomance of Standing Wave Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction The stack is the core of an thermoacoustic standing wave device. In thermoacoustic engines, heat pumps and refrigerators the geometric characteristics of the stack influence the thermodynamic performance. Until now the stack is studied by using viscous and thermal functions that vary with the shape of the pore. However more advantageous general functions can be taken into account to study a complex cross-section of pores and also the tortuosity. These functions involve classic non-acoustic parameters such as the air-flow resistivity, the tortuosity, the thermal and viscous characteristic length. Aim of this work is to introduce these functions in the classical thermoacoustic theory and to study theoretically the effect on the performance of a thermoacoustic engines.

Acousto-Refrigerator with an Adjustable Mechanical Resonator (RESEARCH NOTE)
Thermoacoustics describes energy conversion processes, activated by interaction temperature oscillation, accompanying the pressure oscillation in a sound wave, with solid boundaries. In ordinary experience this interaction of sound and heat cannot be observed, because of the very low temperature differences, but under suitable conditions, it can be emphasized and amplified to create remarkable ...
متن کاملVelocity Inversion with an Iterative Normal Incidence Point (NIP) Wave Tomography with Model-Based Common Diffraction Surface (CDS) Stack
Normal Incidence Point (NIP) wave tomography inversion has been recently developed to generate a velocity model using Common Reflection Surface (CRS) attributes, which is called the kinematic wavefield attribute. In this paper, we propose to use the model based Common Diffraction Surface (CDS) stack method attributes instead of data driven Common Reflection Surface attributes as an input data p...
متن کاملLocalizing of a Four-Level Atom via Absorption Spectrum
We propose a scheme for localizing an atom in a four-level configuration inside a classical standing wave field, conditioned upon the measurement of frequency of a weak probe field. In the classical standing wave field, the interaction between the atom and the field is position dependent due to the Rabi-frequency of the driving field. Hence, as the absorption frequency of the probe field is mea...
متن کاملStudy of Standing-Wave Thermoacoustic Electricity Generators for Low-Power Applications
This paper is concerned with the study of low-cost, low-power thermoacoustic electricity generators. Based on target electrical output power values of 50 and 100 W, three standing wave prototypes (of both one-stage and two-stage prototypes) integrating a commercial loudspeaker with different coupling arrangements are conceived. Each stage consists of a square-pore stack sandwiched between hot a...
متن کاملA High Order Approximation of the Two Dimensional Acoustic Wave Equation with Discontinuous Coefficients
This paper concerns with the modeling and construction of a fifth order method for two dimensional acoustic wave equation in heterogenous media. The method is based on a standard discretization of the problem on smooth regions and a nonstandard method for nonsmooth regions. The construction of the nonstandard method is based on the special treatment of the interface using suitable jump conditio...
