Discontinuous Galerkin Methods for Solving Acoustic Problems
Nytra, Jan ; Hlavička, Rudolf (referee) ; Čermák, Libor (advisor)
Parciální diferenciální rovnice hrají důležitou v inženýrských aplikacích. Často je možné tyto rovnice řešit pouze přibližně, tj. numericky. Z toho důvodu vzniklo množství diskretizačních metod pro řešení těchto rovnic. Uvedená nespojitá Galerkinova metoda se zdá jako velmi obecná metoda pro řešení těchto rovnic, především pak pro hyperbolické systémy. Naším cílem je řešit úlohy aeroakustiky, přičemž šíření akustických vln je popsáno pomocí linearizovaných Eulerových rovnic. A jelikož se jedná o hyperbolický systém, byla vybrána právě nespojitá Galerkinova metoda. Mezi nejdůležitější aspekty této metody patří schopnost pracovat s geometricky složitými oblastmi, možnost dosáhnout metody vysokého řádu a dále lokální charakter toho schématu umožnuje efektivní paralelizaci výpočtu. Nejprve uvedeme nespojitou Galerkinovu metodu v obecném pojetí pro jedno- a dvoudimenzionalní úlohy. Algoritmus následně otestujeme pro řešení rovnice advekce, která byla zvolena jako modelový případ hyperbolické rovnice. Metoda nakonec bude testována na řadě verifikačních úloh, které byly formulovány pro testování metod pro výpočetní aeroakustiku, včetně oveření okrajových podmínek, které, stejně jako v případě teorie proudění tekutin, jsou nedílnou součástí výpočetní aeroakustiky.
Numerical Simulation of Noise Generated by Shear Layer Instabilities

Predicting and inhibiting aerodynamically generated noise for fast moving vehicles such as cars, aircraft and trains is increasingly important. The tonal noise generated by the shear-layer instability of air flowing around the cavity opening is especially one of the most significant and most intense sources of aerodynamically generated noise. Computational aeroacoustics (CAA) based on the CFD simulations of compressible Navier-Stokes equations offers the most general approach to predicting those aerodynamically induced sounds. Aeroacoustics is practically always associated with turbulent flow and turbulence is the major challenge for CFD simulations. Four different turbulence modelling approaches are examined in this work. Three of them belong to the LES method category and one uses the URANS approach. Appropriate numerical discretization and iteration schemes have been identified for each of these approaches and implemented in the OpenFOAM open source CFD platform. The accuracy, computational performance and convergence reliability of those schemes have been subsequently studied during three-dimensional CFD simulations on a model of a suitable real object. The CFD simulation results are validated by a measurement. An organ pipe has been chosen as the object of this CAA research because it uses self-sustained oscillations, commonly referred as shear-layer (Rossiter) modes, as the source of its tone generation. The numerical simulation of the shear layer modes, respectively the noise generated by instability in the shear layer, is the subject of this work.
Effect of oscillating blade on tonal noise of blade cascade with five NACA 0010 profiles
Šnábl, Pavel ; Pešek, Luděk ; Radolf, Vojtěch ; Antoš, Pavel ; Procházka, Pavel P. ; Prasad, Chandra Shekhar
The airfoil tonal noise is a well known phenomenon which appears on single airfoils in moderate Reynolds numbers at low angles of attack. It can appear on small aircrafts, fans, wind turbines etc. In thispaper, it was observed on a blade cascade consisting of five NACA 0010 profiles placed in a closed rectangular channel with hard walls when for given conditions, i.e. flow velocity and angle of attack, the cascade tunes to one single frequency. During the middle blade oscillation, the single tone splits up to several tones with lower intensity modulated by the excitation frequency. Thus, the oscillation of one blade suppresses the tonal noise generation in the cascade.
Study of aeroacoustics noise of high-speed aircraft propellers and mitigation of the cause
Prasad, Chandra Shekhar
The project deals with the study of aeroacoustics noise generated by high-speed turboprop propellers and methods to minimize its causes. A reduced order flow solver with aeroacaustic noise capturing characteristics is developed for fast numerical analysis purpose. The acoustical performance will be also studied using flow visualization using article image velocimetry under rotation and acoustics noise will be measured by microphones for both conventional as well as unconventional propeller designs at diferent rotational speeds.
Aeroacoustic simulation of human phonation with the wale sub-grid scale model
Šidlof, Petr ; Lasota, M.
The paper reports on an aeroacoustic model of voice generation in human larynx, based on Large Eddy Simulation with the Wall-Adapting Local Eddy-Viscosity (WALE) sub-grid scale (SGS) model. The simulation uses a three-step hybrid approach, with an incompressible finite volume CFD computation providing the filtered velocity and pressure, evaluation of the aeroacoustic sources, and simulation of the sound propagation by finite element discretization of the Acoustic Perturbation Equations. The WALE SGS model is used to overcome the limitation of the classical Smagorinski SGS model, which overpredicts the SGS viscosity in regions of high shear, especially within the boundary layer in the glottal constriction. Results of the 3D CFD simulation, location of the aeroacoustic sources and the spectra of the radiated sound for two vowels are presented.

Numerical solution of compressible subsonic flows in 3D channel
Pořízková, P. ; Kozel, K. ; Horáček, Jaromír
The channels shape is a simplified geometry of the glottal space in the human vocal tract. Goal is numerical simulation of flow in the channels which involves attributes of real flow causing acoustic perturbations. The system of Navier-Stokes equations closed with static pressure expression for ideal gas describes the unsteady laminar flow of compressible viscous fluid. The numerical solution is implemented using the finite volume method and the predictor-corrector MacCormack scheme with artificial viscosity using a grid of quadrilateral cells. The unsteady grid of quadrilateral cells is considered in the form of conservation laws using Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method.
Computational aeroacoustics of human phonation
Šidlof, Petr ; Zörner, S.
The current paper presents a CFD model of flow past vibrating vocal folds coupled to an acoustic solver, which calculates the sound sources from the flow field in a hybrid approach. The CFD model is based on the numerical solution of 3D Navier-Stokes equations on a time-dependent domain, solved by cell-centered finite volume method. To capture the fine turbulent scales important for the acoustic source calculations, the equations are discretized and solved on large computational meshes up to 3.2M elements. The CFD simulations were run in parallel using domain decomposition method and OpenMPI implementation of the MPI standard. Aeroacoustic simulations are calculated in a separate step by Lighthill’s acoustic analogy, which determines the acoustic sources based on the fluid field. This is done with the research code CFS++ which employs the finite element method (FEM).
