Pełny tekst źródłaIntake and Exhaust system noise makes a huge contribution to the interior and exterior noise of automobiles. There are a number of linear acoustic tools developed by institutions and industries to predict the acoustic properties of intake and exhaust systems. The present project discusses and validates, through measurements, the proper modelling of these systems using BOOST-SID and discusses the ideas to properly convert a geometrical model of an exhaust muffler to an acoustic model. The various elements and their properties are also discussed.
When it comes to Acoustic properties there are several parameters that describe the performance of a muffler, the Transmission Loss (TL) can be useful to check the validity of a mathematical model but when we want to predict the actual acoustic behavior of a component after it is installed in a system and subjected to operating conditions then we have to determine other properties like Attenuation, Insertion loss etc,.
Zero flow and Mean flow (M=0.12) measurements of these properties were carried out for mufflers ranging from simple expansion chambers to complex geometry using two approaches 1) Two Load technique 2) Two Source location technique. For both these cases, the measured transmission losses were compared to those obtained from BOOST-SID models.
The measured acoustic properties compared well with the simulated model for almost all the cases.

Pełny tekst źródłaThe influence of the shape on the sound emission of cylindrical bluff-bodies is studied. Simulations are performed in two-dimensions (2D) at low-Reynolds number (Re=20-200), with the incompressible direct Navier-Stokes (DNS) solver incompact3D, using the Immersed Boundary Method (IBM) formalism; the acoustic emission is evaluated by a single formula derived from Curle’s equation for compact cylinders. In anechoic wind tunnel, the acoustic signature is measured for about 30 geometries, Re=4,000-53,000; hot-wire measurements of the spanwise flow characteristics are performed for a subset of the tested cylinders. The influence of both the shape of the upstream portion of the geometry and the breadth-to-height ratio (AR) are proved to be major features in terms of both the flow and its acoustic emission in 2D. By reducing the strength of the vortices and pushing them downstream and affecting the mechanics of the von Kármán instability (delaying the transition to unsteadiness), stretched shapes (with higher AR) are generally quieter. From the experiments, it is found that the geometries of biggest AR are the loudest, contraposing the results obtained in 2D. The disparity is justified by a significant increase of the spanwise coherence associated with the larger AR’s, practically fully-phased, thus more acoustically efficient. Globally, it is implied that geometries which have weakly perturbed flow in 2D, marked by a later transition to unsteadiness (larger critical Reynolds number), are also more organized in 3D, high-Reynolds number regimes. The underlying relationship between low and high-Reynolds number transitions must be further investigated

A determinação da impedância acústica de liners utilizados em motores turbofan de aeronaves comerciais é um ponto de interesse da comunidade científica há várias décadas, especialmente na presença de escoamentos tangenciais, condição similar à de operação. Diferentes técnicas foram desenvolvidas para obtenção da impedância de liners. Atualmente, as mais comuns são as técnicas inversas, que consistem em duas etapas: (i) medição do campo acústico em um duto com escoamento e uma amostra de material, e (ii) simulação do campo acústico e aplicação de um processo de otimização para encontrar a impedância que minimiza a diferença entre resultados experimentais e analíticos. Neste trabalho, foram discutidos três métodos: dois métodos inversos, o Método da Matriz de Transferência e o Método do Acoplamento Modal, e um método direto, o Método Prony. Os três métodos foram implementados e validados através de resultados de simulação numérica em Método de Elementos Finitos. Foram avaliados também o custo computacional e a sensibilidade dos métodos à presença de modos de alta ordem no campo acústico medido. Além disso, amostras de materiais típicos foram caracterizadas em uma bancada de testes em velocidades até Mach 0.25 para comparar os resultados dos diferentes métodos. Modelos preditivos semi-empíricos, que utilizam parâmetros geométricos do material para determinar sua impedância, foram também abordados neste trabalho. Alguns destes modelos foram implementados, e seus resultados para amostras disponíveis comparados aos medidos com os métodos citados. Por fim, uma nova técnica de determinação de impedância foi proposta, incorporando um modelo matemático de impedância ao processo de otimização, de forma a reduzir significativamente o número de incógnitas do sistema, estabilizando assim a solução.
Abstract : The problem of determining the acoustic impedance of liners used in turbofan engines of commercial aircraft has been a point of interest for the scientific community for decades, especially in the presence of grazing flows, similar to operational conditions. Different techniques have been developed to determine liner acoustic impedance under grazing flow. The current trends are inverse methods, which consist of two steps: (i) measurement of the acoustic field in a duct with flow and a liner sample, and (ii) modeling of the acoustic field and application of an optimization procedure to find the impedance that minimize the difference between experimental and analytic results. In this work, three techniques were discussed: two indirect methods, the Two-Port Matrix Method and the Mode-Matching Method; and a direct technique, the Straight-Forward Method. The three methods were implemented and validated by means of Finite Element Method numerical simulation results. The computational cost and the sensibility to the presence of higher-order modes were also assessed for each method. Semi-empirical predictive models, which use the geometrical parameters of the materials to determine their impedance, were also discussed in this work. Some of these models were implemented, and their results for available liner samples were compared to those obtained by measurements with the previously cited methods. Lastly, a new technique for impedance determination was proposed, which incorporated a mathematical impedance model to the optimization process as a means to significantly reduce the number of unknowns, therefore stabilizing the solution.

Pełny tekst źródłaAcoustic transmission through plates and shells is a problem that appear in many applications, for example in the automotive or aerospace industries, or in civil engineering. The idea is to reduce the noise level inside a caivty enclosed by a vibrating structure, which may be a car, a plane or a building. Composite materials are widely used in the transportation industries due to their light weight and high mechanic resistance, but these features tend to increase the acoustic transparency of the structures, thus making it necessary to add acoustic protections for reducing noise in the enclosed cavity. The most frequently used acoustic protections take the form of layers of poroelastic materials, which are very efficient noise absorbers in high frequencies, but perform less efficiently in lower frequency ranges.This thesis is part of an international project aimed at improving the noise reduction performance of composite structures through passive sound packages. This implies the development of reduced models of acoustic transmission through such structures, and optimization studies on these models. Besides, the robustness of a solution with respect to uncertainties in the model have to be ensured. This thesis is organised in three parts, dealing with numerical modelling, sensitivity analysis for acoustic transmission and the effect of a porous treatment on sound transmission

Pełny tekst źródłaIn a context of urban and transport network densification, people are increasingly exposed to noise. Consequently, the result of vibro-acoustic impact assessment has a pivotal role in rail network expansion. One of the main sources is the rolling noise: Roughness on the wheel and rail surface produce an imposed displacement one the both. This last, generates vibrational response of wheels and the railway track and their acoustic radiation. This PhD thesis presents some improvements of the vibro-acoustic railway track modelling.Concerning vibrational response, the infinite dimension in the longitudinal direction of the track and its deformation in the 3 dimensions, make the analytical models and finite elements non-optimal. The Semi-analytical finite element method (SAFEM), used in this thesis, is particularly well adapted in this case. Firstly, it is used to model railway track on a continuous support. Then, it is coupled with Floquet theorem to model tracks with a periodic support. However, this technique suffers from numerical problems that imposed an adapted algorithm. The second-order Arnoldi method (SOAR) is used to tackle them. This reduction allows to eliminate critical values improving the robustness of the method. Comparison with existing techniques and experimental results validate this model.Concerning acoustic radiation, big domains simulations at high frequency are almost unfeasible when using conventional techniques (FEM, BEM,…). The method used in this thesis, the Variational theory of complex ray (VTCR) is particularly well adapted to these cases. The principal features of VTCR approach are the use of a weak formulation of the acoustic problem, which allows to consider automatically boundary conditions between sub-domains. Then, the use of an integral repartition of plane waves in all the direction allow to simulate the acoustic field. The unknowns of the problem are their amplitudes. This method well assessed for closed domain, has been extended to open domain and coupled to vibrational response of the rail. Comparison with analytic solution and FEM simulation at low frequency allow to validate the method.Coupling these both methods allowed to simulate complex real life vibro-acoustic scenarios. Result of different railway tracks are presented and validated

Pełny tekst źródłaThe increased use of the diesel engine in the passenger car, truck and bus market is due to high efficiency and lower fuel costs. This growing market share has brought with it several environmental issues for instance soot particle emission. Different technologies to remove the soot have been developed and are normally based on some kind of soot trap. In particular for automobiles the use of diesel particulate traps or filters (DPF:s) based on ceramic monolithic honeycombs are becoming a standard. This new exhaust system component will affect the acoustics and also work as a muffler. To properly design exhaust systems acoustic models for diesel particulate traps are needed. The first part of this thesis considers the modelling of sound transmission and attenuation for traps that consist of narrow channels separated by porous walls. This work has resulted in two new models an approximate 1-D model and a more complete model based on the governing equations for a visco-thermal fluid. Both models are expressed as acoustic 2-ports which makes them suitable for implementation in acoustic software for exhaust systems analysis. The models have been validated by experiments on clean filters at room temperature with flow and the agreement is good. In addition the developed filter models have been used to set up a model for a complete After Treatment Device (ATD) for a passenger car. The unit consisted of a chamber which contained both a diesel trap and a Catalytic Converter (CC). This complete model was also validated by experiments at room temperature. The second part of the thesis focuses on experimental techniques for plane wave decomposition in ducts with flow. Measurements in ducts with flow are difficult since flow noise (turbulence) can strongly influence the data. The difficulties are also evident from the lack of good published in-duct measurement data, e.g., muffler transmission loss data, for Mach-numbers above 0.1-0.2. The first paper in this part of the thesis investigates the effect of different microphone mountings and signal processing techniques for suppressing flow noise. The second paper investigates in particular flow noise suppression techniques in connection with the measurement of acoustic 2-ports. Finally, the third paper suggests a general wave decomposition procedure using microphone arrays and over-determination. This procedure can be used to determine the full plane wave data, e.g., the wave amplitudes and complex wave numbers k+ and k-. The new procedure has been applied to accurately measure the sound radiation from an unflanged pipe with flow. This problem is of interest for correctly determining the radiated power from an engine exhaust outlet. The measured data for the reflection coefficient and end correction have been compared with the theory of Munt [33] and the agreement is excellent. The measurements also produced data for the damping value (imaginary part of the wavenumber) which were compared to a model suggested by Howe [13]. The agreement is good for a normalized boundary layer thickness less than 30-40

Pełny tekst źródłaIn the first part of the present PhD. thesis a methodology is presented that allows to predict the soot produced in one-dimensional academic flames, where a semi-empirical soot model is used in combination with a complex chemistry and a detailed radiation solver. The methodology is applied to the computation of soot in a set of ethylene/air counterflow diffusion flames. Several oxidation models are tested and the constants of the model were adjusted to retrieve the experimental results. Also, the effect of radiative losses on soot formation and the flame structure is evaluated. Finally, the performance of the soot model is evaluated on 1D premixed flames, where an alternative expression for the surface growth term is proposed to better reproduce the experimental findings. In the second part of the thesis, Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) and acoustic analysis tools are applied to the prediction of limit cycle oscillations (LCO) of a thermo-acoustic instability appearing in a partially premixed methane/air academic burner operating at atmospheric pressure. The LES captures well the appearance and development of the LCO and a good agreement is found between simulations and experiments in terms of amplitude and frequency of the LCO. Some light is shed on the mechanisms leading to the existence of such instability. Then, a preliminar uncertainty quantification (UQ) analysis is performed, where the effect on the features of the LCO of several computational parameters such as the inlets impedances, mesh refinement or heat losses is assessed. Also, the LES captures well the flame stability behaviour dependence on the operating point and the burner geometry

Pełny tekst źródłaDenna doktorsavhandling behandlar flanktransmission i flervåningshus med trästomme, inom det lågfrekventa området, främst 20-120 Hz. Det övergripande målet är att undersöka hur finita elementmetoden kan bidra i konstruktionsfasen för att utvärdera olika knutpunkters inverkan på flanktransmissionen. Två fältmätningar av accelerationer i trähus har utvärderats. I dessa har två olika lastkällor använts, i den första en stegljudsapparat och i den andra en elektrodynamisk vibrator (shaker). Det visades att shakern kan ge mer detaljerad information, men eftersom vibrationerna även sprider sig till omgivande byggnadsdelar vid fältmätningarna var det svårt att estimera tillförlitliga dämpningsdata även då shaker användes. Fältmätningarna följdes av två mätningar i laborationsmiljö. Dessa två experiment utvärderades med experimentell modalanalys, vilket ger egenmoder och dämpning hos strukturerna. Dämpningen för dessa trähuskonstruktioner varierar kraftigt med frekvens. Extra stora variationer registreras då en elastomer användes i knutpunkten mellan golv och vägg. Den totala dämpningen är generellt högre när elastomerer används i knutpunkten mellan golv och vägg i jämförelse med då knutpunkten är skruvad. Genom att analysera egenmoder och deras korrelationer (MAC), för samma trästruktur men med olika typer av knutpunkter, drogs slutsatsen att knutpunkten drastiskt förändrar strukturens dynamiska beteende. Flera finita elementmodeller av både fält- och laboratorieuppställningar har gjorts. I dessa har knutpunkterna mellan byggnadsdelar modellerats helt styvt eller med hjälp av fjädrar och dämpare. Visuella observationer av egenmoder och korrelationen dem emellan visar att det finns mer rotationsstyvhet i försöken än i finita elementmodellerna. Resultaten i denna doktorsavhandling har gett förståelse för hur knutpunkter i träkonstruktioner beter sig och kan simuleras med finit elementmodellering. Vidare kan resultaten bidra till utvecklingen av FE-modeller som kan användas för att kunna se de akustiska effekterna redan under konstruktionsstadiet. Dock behövs ytterligare forskning inom området.

Pełny tekst źródłaENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis presents a system that is designed to replace the manual process of generating a pronunciation dictionary for use in automatic speech recognition. The proposed system has several stages. The first stage segments the audio into what will be known as the subword units, using a frequency domain method. In the second stage, dynamic time warping is used to determine the similarity between the segments of each possible pair of these acoustic segments. These similarities are used to cluster similar acoustic segments into acoustic clusters. The final stage derives a pronunciation dictionary from the orthography of the training data and corresponding sequence of acoustic clusters. This process begins with an initial mapping between words and their sequence of clusters, established by Viterbi alignment with the orthographic transcription. The dictionary is refined iteratively by pruning redundant mappings, hidden Markov model estimation and Viterbi re-alignment in each iteration. This approach is evaluated experimentally by applying it to two subsets of the TIMIT corpus. It is found that, when test words are repeated often in the training material, the approach leads to a system whose accuracy is almost as good as one trained using the phonetic transcriptions. When test words are not repeated often in the training set, the proposed approach leads to better results than those achieved using the phonetic transcriptions, although the recognition is poor overall in this case.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doelwit van die tesis is om ’n stelsel te beskryf wat ontwerp is om die handgedrewe proses in die samestelling van ’n woordeboek, vir die gebruik in outomatiese spraakherkenningsstelsels, te vervang. Die voorgestelde stelsel bestaan uit ’n aantal stappe. Die eerste stap is die segmentering van die oudio in sogenaamde sub-woord eenhede deur gebruik te maak van ’n frekwensie gebied tegniek. Met die tweede stap word die dinamiese tydverplasingsalgoritme ingespan om die ooreenkoms tussen die segmente van elkeen van die moontlike pare van die akoestiese segmente bepaal. Die ooreenkomste word dan gebruik om die akoestiese segmente te groepeer in akoestiese groepe. Die laaste stap stel die woordeboek saam deur gebruik te maak van die ortografiese transkripsie van afrigtingsdata en die ooreenstemmende reeks akoestiese groepe. Die finale stap begin met ’n aanvanklike afbeelding vanaf woorde tot hul reeks groep identifiseerders, bewerkstellig deur Viterbi belyning en die ortografiese transkripsie. Die woordeboek word iteratief verfyn deur oortollige afbeeldings te snoei, verskuilde Markov modelle af te rig en deur Viterbi belyning te gebruik in elke iterasie. Die benadering is getoets deur dit eksperimenteel te evalueer op twee subversamelings data vanuit die TIMIT korpus. Daar is bevind dat, wanneer woorde herhaal word in die afrigtingsdata, die stelsel se benadering die akkuraatheid ewenaar van ’n stelsel wat met die fonetiese transkripsie afgerig is. As die woorde nie herhaal word in die afrigtingsdata nie, is die akkuraatheid van die stelsel se benadering beter as wanneer die stelsel afgerig word met die fonetiese transkripsie, alhoewel die akkuraatheid in die algemeen swak is.
