Sound Generation by a Turbulent Flow in Musical Instruments - Multiphysics Simulation Approach -

Use of Stochastic Turbulence Models in Jet Acoustics

There are many approaches to determine the sound propagated from turbulent flows.  In hybrid methods, the turbulent noise source field is computed or modeled separately from the far-field calculations.  To have an initial and quick estimation of the sound propagation, less computationally intensive methods can be developed using stochastic models of the turbulent fluctuations.   In this paper, ...

Aerodynamic Noise Computation of the Flow Field around NACA 0012 Airfoil Using Large Eddy Simulation and Acoustic Analogy

The current study presents the results of the aerodynamic noise prediction of the flow field around a NACA 0012 airfoil at a chord-based Reynolds number of 100,000 and at 8.4 degree angle of attack. An incompressible Large Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulence model is applied to obtain the instantaneous turbulent flow field. The noise prediction is performed by the Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings (FW-...

Investigations of Three- Dimensional Turbulent Cavity Flow Using Large Eddy Simulation Approach

Intensity of Acoustic Radiation Measurement on Persian Musical Instruments

A new acoustical parameter, called Intensity of Acoustic Radiation (IAR), was recently defined, and resulted very well related with mechanical vibration of sound source, being able to quantify the sound efficiency of musical Instruments In this paper the IAR was experimentally measured on Persian string musical Instruments. IAR relates mechanical vibration of surface (e.g. soundboards) and soun...

Direct Numerical Simulation of the Wake Flow Behind a Cylinder Using Random Vortex Method in Medium to High Reynolds Numbers

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent flow behind a cylinder, wake flow, using the random vortex method for an incompressible fluid in two dimensions is presented. In the random vortex method, the primary variable is vorticity of the flow field. After generation on the cylinder wall, it is followed in two fractional time step in a Lagrangian system of coordinates, namely convection and diffu...
