| Research Abstract |
True-scale analysis : Sound generation by airflow over square-section balusters of buildings is numerically calculated by a hybrid technique of near-field incompressible flow analysis and far-field integral of Curle equation. Under the conditions of inflow wind velocity of 12m/s and the side length of the square-section balusters of 21mm (the Reynolds number 16,000), the result approximately matched an experimental result in peak frequency, which is higher in Strouhal number than the case of an isolated square cylinder in the same Reynolds number.
Computational cost reduction method : An estimation method of total sound pressure radiated from such body is introduced by conducting an analysis of its partial span, taking frequency-dependent spanwise correlation of the fluctuating aeroacoustic source into account. The presented method is validated through comparison of the sound pressure estimated by the method and that obtained by a full-span analysis.
Extension to the method above : To reduce computational resources required for CFD computation further, the authors present a method to estimate the noise from a row of cylinders like balusters by computing its part. The idea is to extrapolate the sound pressure obtained by partial computation using correlation function of the phase angles of fluid forces at each frequency between the cylinders. A computation of a balustrade with eight balusters with the method applied is attempted, where correlation is hardly observed even at the Karman frequency.
