In the most of acoustic system with low flow rate and low pressure level, one-dimensional, linear modeling techniques are used very well. At low frequency, the tube is modeled as inertia element and cavity as capacitance element, and to extend the range of frequency normal mode oscillators are represented. Bond graph modelling techniques are proposed to predict TL (Transmission Loss) and time response which is impossible by transfer matrix in muffler system. A simple acoustic filter which consists of several tubes and cawities is analyzed in both time and frequency domain.

The present paper investigated the effect of ultrasonic vibrations on the melting process of a phase-change material (PCM). The melting process in the square cavity with a heated vertical wall has been studied in terms of acoustic streaming. In the present study, applying with ultrasonic vibrations to the liquid were found to induce acoustic streaming which was clearly observed using by a particle image velocimetry (PIV) and a thermal infrared camera. The experimental results revealed that acoustic streaming could accelerate the melting process as much as 2.5 times, compared to the rate of natural melting (i. e., the melting without acoustic streaming). In addition, temperature and Nusselt numbers over time provided conclusive evidence of the important role of the acoustic streaming on the melting phenomena of the PCM.

An empirical acoustic impedance model of acoustic resonators with extended neck at a high sound pressure environment is proposed. The acoustic resonator with extended neck into its cavity is appropriate for the launcher fairing application because the length of neck does not increase the total height of the resonator. This enables one to design slim and light acoustic resonators for launch vehicles. The suggested acoustic impedance model considers the incident pressure and geometric variables(the neck length, the perforation ratio and the hole diameter) in terms of non-dimensional variables. Several acoustic resonators with extended neck are manufactured and their wall impedances are measured according to the pre-defined incident pressure levels. Effects of non-dimensional variables on the non-linear acoustic impedance are investigated so that a simple non-linear impedance model for the launcher fairing application can be proposed. It is demonstrated that the estimated acoustic resistance and acoustic length correction show reasonable agreement with the measured ones within the range of design parameters for launcher fairings.

The present study investigates on the experimental and numerical results of heat transfer in the acoustic fields induced by ultrasonic waves. The strong upwards flow which moves from the bottom surface in a cavity to the free surface called as "acoustic streaming" was visualized by a particle image velocimetry (PIV). In addition, the augmentation ratio of heat transfer was experimentally investigated in the presence of acoustic streaming and was compared with the profiles of acoustic pressure calculated by the numerical analysis. A coupled finite element-boundary element method (FE-BEM) was applied for a numerical analysis. The results of experimental and numerical studies clearly show that acoustic pressure variations caused by ultrasonic waves in a medium are closely related to the augmentation of heat transfer.

We have studied the possibility of global noise reduction by the sound power control through selection of distribution and impedance of absorptive materials. It is necessary to investigate the relation between the global sound energy in the field and the total sound power radiated by sources. In the previous work (1,2), the authors presented a useful design method to change boundary condition that can be useful to reduce noise in acoustically small enclosures. The possibility of total acoustic potential energy reduction by acoustic source power control is examined in an acoustically small cavity. Using acoustic energy balance equation, the relation between global noise control performance and absorptive material's arrangement/impedance is deduced. Numerical simulation is performed to interpret its physical meaning in terms of absorbent's distribution and impedance.

The volume of an acoustic source is important in determining various acoustic parameters. One of the suggested techniques is the internal pressure method incorporating a loudspeaker attached to a chamber wall and a microphone inserted into the cavity. Although the method is easy to handle with a very simple measurement setup, the coupling effects between the dynamic system of the loudspeaker and acoustic field, and the effects of higher order modes introduced by the discontinuities in the acoustic field, and the effects of higher order modes introduced by the discontinuities in the acoustic field should be considered for precise result. In this study, higher order modes due to the discontinuities of loudspeaker and microphone boundaries are included and the electro-acoustic coupling effects are compensated for by using the results of two cylinders with different lengths. The volume velocity of a loudspeaker thus obtained agrees very with that measured by laser sensor.

The objective of this paper is to introduce the noise reduction characteristics of a double gap system, which is composed of two air-gaps and two partition sheets. The resonance of acoustic modes of an enclosed cavity can be effectively suppressed by installing the double gap system in the cavity. It is revealed from a simple, one-dimensional model that the double gap system is more effective than the single gap system that consists of one air-gap and one partition sheet, in that the former requires a smaller space than the latter. Finally, these theoretical conclusions are verified by comparison experiments using an actually manufactured enclosed cavity, of which the boundary surfaces are made of thick panels that can be assumed as rigid walls.

When fluid flows at high speed over an open cavity, large acousitc pressure is produced by fluid/structure interaction at the downstream edge of the cavity. The goal of this paper is suggestion of effective control method to suppress the noise generated from cavity and numerically simulation of active control. The cavity instability mechanism is simulated and a close-loop control algorithm is implemented. The effects of the actuator and some control function are discussed. The compressible Navier-Stokes equations are solved with the high-order and high-resolution numerical schemes to precisely simulate the interaction between flow and acoustic. The results show that noise is effectively suppressed with the control method suggested in this paper.

Audiometric calibration is a prerequisite for securing the reliability of audiometric test results by checking the internal consistency of the relevant instrument. The purpose of this review is to help instrument operators understand the calibration procedure of aural acoustic immittance instrument which is frequently used for objective assessment. By referring to the latest international standards and the national standards relevant to the aural acoustic immittance instrument, the following parameters will be reviewed: 1) introduction of performance characteristics, 2) detailed procedure of the calibration method. According to the newest international and national standards [IEC 60645-5 (2004), ANSI S3.39-1987 (R2012)], the aural acoustic immittance instrument basically includes six components: 1) calibration cavity, 2) acoustic immittance analysis system, 3) probe assembly/unit and signal, 4) pneumatic air-pressure pump system, 5) acoustic reflex activator system and 6) tympanogram and acoustic reflex plotting system, each of these components should meet set standards. The result of behavioral hearing tests is influenced by various complex factors including the examinee's cooperation, background noise of the examination room, measurement method, skill level of the audiologist and calibration status, but the objective hearing tests is more influenced by the calibration status of the instrument than any other factors. The audiologist should take full responsibility for the reliability of the hearing test result, so he/she should carry out the calibration check and adjustments of aural acoustic immittance instrument periodically and maintain the instrument continuously by referring to the newest standards and the manufacturer's instruction manual.

본 논문은 주위 환경인 수압 및 수온변화에 따른 맨드릴형 광-음향센서의 감도특성을 분석한 것에 관한 것이다. 음향감지부의 구조로는 실린더형, 중공 층상복합체형 및 air cavity가 삽입된 중공 층상복합체를 선정하고, 주위 수압과 수온변화에 따른 광-음향센서의 감도특성을 분석하였다. 맨드릴형 광-음향센서는 주위 정수압의 변화에 대해 0.15dB 미만의 음향감도 변화를 나타내고, 수압변화에 대해 안정적인 특성을 보유하고 있다. 주위 수온변화에 대한 음향감도의 상대적인 안정성은 air cavity가 삽입된 중공 나일론 층상복합체를 이용한 맨드릴형 광-음향센서가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
