Simulation of the acoustics behind a wall due to a moving vehicle

Åberg, Magnus LU ; Szász, Robert-Zoltán LU and Fuchs, Laszlo LU (2006) 12th AIAA/CEAS Aeroacoustics Conference 3. p.1960-1971
Abstract
The influence of a barrier on the acoustic field is investigated using an expansion of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Large Eddy Simulations (LES) is used to account for the acoustical sources and the equation for the acoustic density fluctuation accounts for the propagation of the acoustics waves. This combined approach enhances numerical efficiency while maintaining good accuracy. The problem under consideration is related to the spreading of noise due to a moving vehicle and the effects of a noise barrier on the Sound Pressure Level (SPL) and spectral composition. These parameters are computed for several configurations of the barrier in terms of height and distance from the vehicle. The main results show that there can be... (More)

These parameters are computed for several configurations of the barrier in terms of height and distance from the vehicle. The main results show that there can be acoustic modes in resonance between the barrier and vehicle and that barrier height has an effect on SPL that is intuitive. Copyright (Less)
