Influence of Cavity Edges Shape on Flow Induced Noise

Abstract:
In this paper, impact of the cavity shape on flow-generated noise is analysed. As reference model, the classic rectangular cavity with perpendicular corners was used. The impact of both upstream and downstream edges was analyzed. In this paper, authors used hybrid method, where the flow was computed by means of Spalart-Allmaras Detached Eddy Simulations (DES) model, and the acoustic wave propagation was calculated by Curle acoustic analogy.
