Description
Isogeometric Analysis of Sound Propagation through Flow in 2-Dimensional Ducts: Talk given at the fall school "Shapes, Geometry and Algebra (SAGA)"The aim of this work is to use isogeometric analysis, a unification of finite element methods (FEM) and computer aided design (CAD), to solve the coupled flow-acoustic problem that governs the propagation of sound through flow in ducts. The background flow in the duct is governed by the steady-state, incompressible Navier-Stokes equation, while the sound propagation is governed by the advected Helmholtz equation. The crux of isogeometric analysis is to approximate the flow fields and the acoustic pressure by B-splines. The accurate geometry representation and high degree of continuity of the state variables are some of the method's advantages. We firstly review the concepts of how to apply isogeometric analysis to the coupled flow-acoustic problem, and we then report on the effects of the flow field and of the duct geometry on the acoustic reponse.
