The split-type conical nozzles with replaceable exit sections with diameters of 30, 40 and 50 mm were designed and produced from steel by machine turning. In addition, the replaceable output parts of the nozzles with the same diameters were produced by additive technology (fused deposition manufacturing) from ABS plastic. In the acoustic anechoic chamber, the noise measurements of a single-stream cold air jet for all the nozzles at jet velocities in the range of 0.3-0.7 Mach numbers were carried out. The noise measurements were performed on distance of 2 m from the center of the nozzle exit section at angles from 30 to 105o. For different directions of noise radiation and different velocities of the jet, the power spectral density and overall sound pressure level were determined. The obtained results demonstrates that the jet noise for nozzles with diameter of 40 and 50 mm from steel and ABS plastic differs by no more than 1 dB, which is within the measurement error for these types of experiments. The nozzles with diameter 30 mm have a higher difference in noise, which can be explained by the more sensitivity of a nozzle with a small diameter to the deviations of geometric parameters when it produced by additive technology.
The acoustic characteristics of a full-scale sample of an actual single-layer liner are determined by numerical simulation of physical processes in normal incidence interferometer. Numerical simulation is performed based on solving the unsteady Navier-Stokes equations with allowance for compressibility in three-dimensional statement. It is noted the good agreement of the acoustic characteristics of the liner sample obtained in numerical simulation and in experiment. It is shown that conducting numerical simulation on single cell sample of the liner also gives results that are in good agreement with the experiment. It allows predicting the acoustic characteristics of samples of locally reacting liners with a more complex geometry in further.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
