چکیده مقاله:

There are many approaches to determine the sound propagated from turbulent flows. In hybrid methods, the turbulent noise source field is computed or modeled separately from the far-field calculations. To have an initial and quick estimation of the sound propagation, less computationally intensive methods can be developed using stochastic models of the turbulent fluctuations. In this paper, turbulent mean flow of a two dimensional, compressible, cold-jet at Mach 0.56 is computed using RANS with 2 equation k-ε RNG model. The above mean-flow quantities are then used in a stochastic model to generate the details of the turbulent velocity fluctuations. This method is based on the use of classical Langevin equation to model the details of fluctuating flow field superimposed on the averaged computed quantities. The resulting sound field due to the generated unsteady flow is then evaluated using Lighthill's acoustic analogy. Our results are validated by comparing the directivity and the overall sound pressure level (OASPL) magnitudes with the available experimental data. Numerical results show reasonable agreement with the experiments, both in maximum directivity and the magnitude of the OASPL.

Comparison of different turbulence models in a high pressure fuel jet

In this study, modeling of a fuel jet which has been injected by high pressure into a low-pressure tank are investigated. Due to the initial conditions and the geometry of this case and similar cases (like CNG injectors in internal combustion engines (ICE)), the barrel shocks and Mach disk are observed. Hence a turbulence and transient flow will be expected with lots of shocks and waves. Accord...

Stochastic averaging, jet formation and multistability in geostrophic turbulence

We consider the formation of large scale structures (zonal jets and vortices), in geostrophic turbulence forced by random forces, within the barotropic quasi-geostrophic model. We study the limit of a time scale separation between inertial dynamics on one hand, and the effect of forces and dissipation on the other hand. We prove that stochastic averaging can be performed explicitly in this prob...

On the Kolmogorov constant in stochastic turbulence models

The Kolmogorov constant is fundamental in stochastic models of turbulence. To explain the reasons for observed variations of this quantity, it is calculated for two flows by various methods and data. Velocity fluctuations are considered as the sum of contributions due to anisotropy, acceleration fluctuations and stochastic forcing that is controlled by the Kolmogorov constant. It is shown that ...

Use of Stochastic Models in Text Recognition

We present in this paper two applications of stochastic models to text recognition. The rst application concerns multi-font printed text recognition (ptr) while the second deals with handwritten word recognition (hwr). The former is built around rst and second order hidden Markov models (hmm) and uses an extended Viterbi algorithm for recognition. The method operates in a bottom-up manner by pr...
