The aim of this paper is to investigate the impacts of various parameters of rigid spherical microphone array in detecting and locating interior sound source. Helmholtz Equations are adopted to express the sound field produced by the incident field and scattered field. The gradient of the pressure is zero at the surface for the sphere is rigid. Both the incident and scattered coefficient could be obtained by solving the Helmholtz Equation using the boundary condition. Then the interior sound field could be detected and located on with the methodology of spherical near-field acoustic holography (SNAH). This study is developed in two aspects，one is configuring the microphone in various distribution in the same sphere radius, and the other one is changing the radius of sphere array. Numerical simulations are carried out to determine the optimum microphone array configuration and structure parameters. One, two, and three sound sources are arranged respectively in different displacement to the sphere center and in different angle direction to simulate the real situation. During the experiments, Omni-directional speakers and beeps are adopted as sound sources. The result shows that the method to detect and locate sound source in interior sound field is valid.

AbstractPrevious work has shown that aspects of the evolution of large-scale structures, particularly in forced and transitional mixing layers and jets, can be described by linear and nonlinear stability theories. However, questions persist as to the choice of the basic (steady) flow field to perturb, and the extent to which disturbances in natural (unforced), initially turbulent jets may be modelled with the theory. For unforced jets, identification is made difficult by the lack of a phase reference that would permit a portion of the signal associated with the instability wave to be isolated from other, uncorrelated fluctuations. In this paper, we investigate the extent to which pressure and velocity fluctuations in subsonic, turbulent round jets can be described aslinearperturbations to the mean flow field. The disturbances are expanded about the experimentally measured jet mean flow field, and evolved using linear parabolized stability equations (PSE) that account, in an approximate way, for the weakly non-parallel jet mean flow field. We utilize data from an extensive microphone array that measures pressure fluctuations just outside the jet shear layer to show that, up to an unknown initial disturbance spectrum, the phase, wavelength, and amplitude envelope of convecting wavepackets agree well with PSE solutions at frequencies and azimuthal wavenumbers that can be accurately measured with the array. We next apply the proper orthogonal decomposition to near-field velocity fluctuations measured with particle image velocimetry, and show that the structure of the most energetic modes is also similar to eigenfunctions from the linear theory. Importantly, the amplitudes of the modes inferred from the velocity fluctuations are in reasonable agreement with those identified from the microphone array. The results therefore suggest that, to predict, with reasonable accuracy, the evolution of the largest-scale structures that comprise the most energetic portion of the turbulent spectrum of natural jets, nonlinear effects need only be indirectly accounted for by considering perturbations to the mean turbulent flow field, while neglecting any non-zero frequency disturbance interactions.
