Acoustic Analysis of an Exhaust MANIFOLD by INDIRECT Boundary Element Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present work is aimed at the development of a numerical procedure, based on the usage of the Boundary Element Method (BEM) as implemented in the software LMS Virtual.Lab, for the vibro-acoustics analysis of an exhaust manifold. The manifold vibrations are induced by two different ways: engine vibrations (transmitted to the manifold surfaces) and turbulences generated by the air flow in the exhaust system. The indirect BEM (IBEM), with a variational solution algorithm, is adopted to assess the exhaust manifold acoustic radiation. The modal analysis of the acoustic cavity is realized by the Finite Element Method (FEM) and the corresponding eigenfrequencies compared with those obtained by an IBEM forced response analysis and by experimental measurement. Experimental acoustic pressures at the manifold inlet and outlet are measured in anechoic room in order to compare with corresponding numerical predictions and assess the accuracy level obtained.

Experimental and finite element vibrational analysis of exhaust manifold heat shield
Most of internal combustion engines have one or two heat shields that have been installed on the exhaust manifold to avoid the heat transfer to upper parts of the engine such as the valve cover. In some engines, this part fails due to the fracture and causes engine noise and other failures in the engine. In this paper, the failure of a heat shield due to vibrational loads of the engine has been...

متن کاملA boundary element/finite difference analysis of subsidence phenomenon due to underground structures
Analysis of the stresses, displacements, and horizontal strains of the ground subsidence due to underground excavation in rocks can be accomplished by means of a hybridized higher order indirect boundary element/finite difference (BE/FD) formulation. A semi-infinite displacement discontinuity field is discretized (numerically) using the cubic displacement discontinuity elements (i.e. each highe...
متن کاملBending Solution for Simply Supported Annular Plates Using the Indirect Trefftz Boundary Method
This paper presents the bending analysis of annular plates by the indirect Trefftz boundary approach. The formulation for thin and thick plates is based on the Kirchhoff plate theory and the Reissner plate theory. The governing equations are therefore a fourth-order boundary value problem and a sixth-order boundary value problem, respectively. The Trefftz method employs the complete set of solu...
