For the effective reduction of structural vibration level it is important to obtain the exciting force components. But, sometimes direct force measurement is infeasible due to the geometric limitation of sensor placement. In this case, indirect force identification becomes useful tool for obtaining input force information. In this paper, indirect force technique was applied to air-jet weaving machine and shows some numerical results.

The acoustic noise around a launch pad by launches of space launch vehicles was analyzed. The magnitudes of sound noise at some points near launch pad were predicted by locating the sound source at the exhaust jet plume of the rocket engine and considering several factors such as the directivity of the sound propagation and atmospheric attenuation. Specifically, the launch noise of Korea Space Launch Vehicle-I (KSLV-I) was estimated, and was compared to the actual measurement results. The analysis results proved to be heavily affected by the characteristics of directivity of sound propagation and the analysis showed good agreements with the measurements when the directivity of the sound was appropriately adjusted.

The present study describes an experimental work to reduce supersonic jet noise using a control wire device that is placed into the supersonic jet stream. The jet pressure ratio is varied to obtain the supersonic jets which are operated in a wide range of over-expanded to moderately under-expanded conditions. The wire device is composed of long cylinders with a very small diameter. X-type wire device is applied to control the supersonic jet noise, and its location is varied to investigate the effect of the control wire device on supersonic jet noise. A high-quality Schlieren optical system is used to visualize the flow field of supersonic jet with and without the control wire device. Acoustic measurement is performed to obtain the overall sound pressure level and noise spectra. The results obtained show that the present wire device destroys the shock-cell structures, reduces the shock strength, and consequently leading to a substantial suppression of supersonic jet noise.

Mode transition of the axi-symmetric screech tone in the low supersonic Mach number range from 1.0 to 1.20 is numerically analyzed. The axi-symmetric Navier-Stokes equations and the k-e turbulence model are solved in the cylindrical coordinate system. The dispersion-relation-preserving(DRP) scheme is applied for space discretization and the optimized four levels marching method are used for time integration. At low supersonic Mach numbers with an axi-symmetric A1 mode in the simulation, it is shown that acoustic propagation due to the nonlinear effects is seen in the lateral direction and the screech tone frequency is the same as the vortex passing frequency due to the generation of intense large-scale vortical motions.

Flow and noise analyses are conducted for examining a new design concept of impinging jet electronics cooling, and the analysis results are compared with conventional electronics cooling techniques. For the application of impinging jet electronics cooling method, the present study considers the air duct where air is supplied by axial fan and air flow from the duct is impinged vertically onto the electronic component heat source. Applying CFD simulation technique and fan noise model to the present cooling scheme, the cooling performance of the impinging jet as well as the operation condition and the noise characteristics of fan are investigated for various impinging jet nozzle conditions and fan models. Furthermore, the impinging jet electronics cooling analysis results are compared with the conventional parallel-flow cooling scheme to give the design concept and criteria of impinging jet cooling method.

The experimental study is carried out to identify the combustion generated noise mechanism in free turbulent jet diffusion flames. Axial mean fluctuating velocities in cold and reacting flow fields were measured using hot-wire anemometer and LDv.The overall sound pressure level and their spectral distribution in far field with and without combustion were also measured in an anechoic chamber. The axial mean velocity is 10-25% faster and turbulent intensities are about 10 to 15% smaller near active reacting zone than those in nonreacting flow fields. And sound pressure level is about 10-20% higher in reacting flow fields. It is also shown that the spectra of the combustion noise has lower frequency characteristics over a broadband spectrum. These results indicate that the combustion noise characteristics in jet diffusion flames are dominated by energy containing large scale eddies and the combusting flow field itself. Scaling laws correlating the gas velocity and heat of combustion show that the acoustic power of the combustion noise is linearly proportional to the 3.8th power of the mean axial velocity rather than 8th power in nonreacting flow fields, and the SPL increases linearly with logarithmic 1/2th power of the heat of combustion.

This experimental study describes the propagation characteristics of the impulse noise emitted from the exit of a perforated pipe attached to the open end of a simple shock tube. The pressure amplitudes and directivities of the impulse wave propagating from the exit of perforated pipe with several different configurations are measured and analyzed fur the range of the incident shock wave Mach number between 1.02 and 1.2. In the experiments, the impulse waves are visualized by a Schlieren optical system for the purpose of investigating their propagation pattern. The results obtained show that for the near sound field the impulse noise strongly propagates toward to the pipe axis, but for the far sound field the impulse noise uniformly propagates toward to the all directions, indicating that the directivity pattern is almost same regardless of the pipe type. Moreover, it is shown that for the far sound field the perforated pipe has little performance to suppress the impulse noise.

The present study addresses a computational work of the weak shock wave propagating inside an automobile exhaust muffler. Several different types of the silencer systems are employed to investigate the magnitude of the shock wave during propagating through them. The Initial shock wave Mach number $M_s$ is varied between 1.01 and 1.30, and a normal shock wave is given at the inlet of the silencer systems. The second order total variation diminishing scheme Is employed to solve the two dimensional, compressible, unsteady Euler equations. The present computational results are compared with the previous experimental ones available. The present computations predict the experimental results with a quite good accuracy. Of the four silencer systems applied. the most desirable silencer system to reduce the peak pressure at the exalt of the exhaust pipe is discussed from the Point of view of the engineering design of the silencer systems.

Screen can provide any disturbed resistance that affects the change in characteristics of turbulence, velocity and pressure distributions of the flow field, and thus it has been widely used to control the flow. Some previous related studies for compressible flows have limitations such as, considering relatively low-Mach-number flows in the range of 0.3 ∼ 0.7, and not observing the detailed shock structures of the flow fields. An experimental study on highly compressible axi-symmetric supersonic jet flow fields behind wire-gauze screen has thus been carried out. Continuous/instantaneous flow images by Schlieren flow- visualization technique and the information of Pitot pressure/flow-noise measurements of the flow field behind the screen for various jet expansion conditions have been obtained. Effects of various porosity and inclination angles of the screen at the nozzle exit have also been investigated, and the experimental results have been compared to the case with no screen installed.

The impingement of a weak shock wane discharged from the open end of a shock tube upon a flat plate was investigated using shock tube experiments and numerical simulations. Harten-Yee Total Variation Diminishing method was used to solve axisymmetric, unsteady, compressible flow governing equations. Experiments were carried out to validate the present computations. The effects of the flat plate and baffle plate sizes on the impinging flow field over the flat plate were investigated. Shock Mach number was varied in the range from 1.05 to 1.20. The distance between the plate and shock tube was changed to investigate the effect on the peak pressure. From both the results of experiments and computations we obtained a good empirical equation to predict the peak pressure on the flat plate.
