Acoustic Scattering Problems

Abstract The boundary element method is an established numerical tool for the analysis of acoustic pressure fields in an infinite domain. There is currently no well established method of estimating the surface pressure error distribution for an arbitrary three dimensional body. Hierarchical shape functions have been used as a highly effective form of p refinement in many finite and boundary element applications. Their ability to be used as an error estimator in acoustic analysis has never been fully exploited. This paper studies the influence of mesh density and interpolation order on several acoustic scattering problems. A hierarchical error estimator is implemented and its effectiveness verified against the spherical problem. A coarse cylindrical mesh is then refined using the new error estimator until the solution has converged. The effectiveness of this analysis is shown by comparing the error indicators derived during the analysis to the solution generated from a very fine cylindrical mesh.

The linearized Euler equations (LEEs) solver for aeroacoustic problems has been developed on block-structured Cartesian mesh to address complex geometry. Taking advantage of the benefits of Cartesian mesh, we employ high-order schemes for spatial derivatives and for time integration. On the other hand, the difficulty of accommodating curved wall boundaries is addressed by the immersed boundary method. The resulting LEEs solver is robust to complex geometry and numerically efficient in a parallel environment. The accuracy and effectiveness of the present solver are validated by one-dimensional and three-dimensional test cases. Acoustic scattering around a sphere and noise propagation from the JT15D nacelle are computed. The results show good agreement with analytical, computational, and experimental results. Finally, noise propagation around fuselage-wing-nacelle configurations is computed as a practical example. The results show that the sound pressure level below the over-the-wing nacelle (OWN) configuration is much lower than that of the conventional DLR-F6 aircraft configuration due to the shielding effect of the OWN configuration.
