Prediction of Frequency Modulation of Discrete Noise for Random Pitch Cross-Flow Fans by Unsteady Viscous Flow Computations

비정상 점성 유동 해석에 의한 부등피치 횡류홴의 이산소음 주파수 변조 특성 예측

Unsteady flow characteristics and associated blade tonal noise of a cross-flow fan are predicted by a computational method. The incompressible Wavier-Stokes equations are time-accurately solved for obtaining the pressure fluctuations between the rotating blades and the stabilizer, and sound pressure is predicted using Curie's equation. The computed fan performance is favorably compared with experimental data, and also indicates that the performance is not significantly altered by the random pitch effect at ø〉0.4. (omitted)
