Acoustic tuning of quarter-wave resonator is investigated numerically to suppress combustion instability in liquid rocket engines. A model combustion chamber is adopted. First, basic acoustic characteristics are examined and acoustic damping is pursued by quarter-wave resonators. Next, for frequency tuning of the resonators, thermodynamic properties inside the acoustic resonators are estimated based on the numerical data. Maximum damping capacity is obtained when the resonators are designed to have the optimum length calculated with the properties. But, damping capacity induced by the resonators with the same length is comparable with it.

평판에서 발생되는 램파가 물체 내에 존재할 수 있는 미세 결함과의 상호작용에 의해 비선형 음향효과를 발생시키는지 관찰하고 이로부터 결함의 존재 유$\cdot$무를 확인하고자 했다. 이차원의 판형 매질로서 $2000{\times}110{\times}2{\cal}mm^3$인 강철판을 사용했으며 결함은 강철판의 임의의 위치에 인위적으로 미세틈새를 형성하여 모델화시켰다. 488kHz의 저주파수 연속파와 톤버스트 형태의 1MHz 고주파수 음파를 입사시켰다. 결함의 유$\cdot$무에 따른 강철판에서의 수신음파에 대한 주파수 응답을 통하여 비선형 음향반응인 배진동 주파수와 합$\cdot$차 주파수의 발생을 관측함으로써 매질 내의 결함 유$\cdot$무를 판별하고자 했다. 결함이 존재할 경우, 존재하지 않을 경우와 비교했을 때 배진동 주파수는 진폭이 15dB, 합$\cdot$차주파수는 진폭이 18dB이상 증가됨을 관찰함으로써 평판에서의 결함의 존재 유$\cdot$무를 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper presents an algorithm for passive localization of a ship by applying the ray back-propagation technique to the ship radiation noise data. The previous method [S. H. Abadi, D. Rouseff and D. R. Dowling, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 131, 2599-2610 (2012)] estimates the position of a sound source in the near-field environment with no array tilt by using the RBD (Ray-based Blind Deconvolution) and ray back-propagation techniques. However, when there exists an array tilt, the above method leads to a large position estimation error. In order to overcome the problem, this study proposes an algorithm that estimates the position of a sound source by correcting the array tilt using the RBD and ray back-propagation techniques. The proposed algorithm was verified by using the ship noise of SAVEX15 (Shallow-water Acoustic Variability EXperiment in 2015) experimental data.

The sensor response of a piezoelectric transducer embedded in a fluid loaded structure is modeled using a hybrid numerical approach. The structure is excited by an obliquely incident acoustic wave. Finite element modeling in the structure and fluid surrounding the transducer region, is used and a plane wave representation is exploited to match the displacement field at the mathematical boundary. On this boundary, continuity of field derivatives is enforced by using a penalty factor and to further achieve transparency at the mathematical boundary, drilling degrees of freedom (d.o.f.) are introduced to ensure continuity of all derivatives. Numerical results are presented for the sensor response and it is found that the sensor at that location is not only non-intrusive but also sensitive to the characteristic of the structure.

This paper is concerned with protecting piezoelectric transducers used in an ultrasonic flowmeter from the high temperature of hot fluid in a pipe by using a waveguide and with improving the propagation of ultrasonic longitudinal vibration in the waveguide. Waveguide material has been chosen for efficient insulation of heat transferred in the waveguide, and the minimum length of the waveguide for protecting piezoelectric transducer has been estimated. Forced response of the longitudinal vibration in a uniform circular rod has been obtained and the length of the waveguide has been selected for maximum amplitude. Longitudinal vibration response of a conically-tapered rod excited at a natural frequency has been obtained to confirm that wave motion is amplified as the cross-sectional size of the waveguide decreases along the axial direction. The fact that dispersion of a pulse wave in a waveguide is reduced as the cross-sectional radius is decreased has been examined theoretically and confirmed experimentally by using a single-rod waveguide. A bundle-type waveguide has proven to be a practical one through the evaluation of the wave propagation performance.

Acoustic pressure response and NO formation of hydrogen-air diffusion flames at various pressures are numerically studied by employing counterflow diffusion flame as a model flame let in turbulent flames in combustion chambers. The numerical results show that extinction strain rate increases linearly with pressure and then decreases, and increases again at high pressures. Thus, flames are classified into three pressure regimes. Such non-monotonic behavior is caused by the change in chemical kinetic behavior as pressure rises. Acoustic pressure response in each regime is investigated based on the Rayleigh criterion. At low pressures, pressure-rise causes the increase in flame temperature and chain branching/recombination reaction rates, resulting in increased heat release. Therefore, amplification in pressure oscillation is predicted. Similar phenomena are predicted at high pressures. At moderate pressures, weak amplification is predicted. Emission index of NO shows similar behaviors as to the peak-temperature variation with pressure.

The response characteristics of the PZT transducers during glass capillary breakage were studied at the epicenter of the glass plate. The PZT transducers had been made by using EC-65 PZT ceramics(supplied by Edo co.) with a constant area and a various thickness. The theoretical displacement and velocity at the epicenter of glass plate with an air boundary condition were calculated by assuming the point load of 1N force strength and a rise time of 280 ns with a ramped functional dependence, and the 1st pulses of the PZT transducer may be considered as the vertical velocity incident on the electrode of the PZT ceramic. The responses of the PZT transducer may be depended on the thickness mode of the PZT ceramic below 0.33 in the ratio of the thickness to the diameter of PZT ceramic, but the reponse of the PZT transducer may be depended on the other modes of PZT transducer in the addition of the thickness mode of the PZT ceramic above 0.33. The full time of half maximum at the 1st pulse was nearly 280 ns without a variation of applied breakage load and the resonant frequency of the PZT transducer, and then may be considered as the rise time of a AE source. The maximum amplitude of the 1st pulse depended on the incident vertical velocity and capacitance of the PZT transducer. Therefore, the full time of half maximum and maximum amplitude of the 1st pulse may be considered as the rise time and strength of acoustic emission source respectively.
