Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find the value of the discharge coefficient (Cd) on a sieve with a circular perforated plate so that it can be used for application in the field. The method used is to make a physical model test of the screen weir in the laboratory with a width of 40 cm and a length of 797 cm, then the screen is made variations in the diameter of the hole 6, 8, 10 and 12 mm, flowrate Q = 453–4 481 cm3∙s–1 and the slope of the screen θ = 20–45°. The result was quite ef-fective, the sediment did not enter above the screen and did not clog the screen even the catch was quite good about 80% of the screen rods. The discharge coefficient (Cd) is directly proportional to the square value of the number Froude (Fr), the slope of the screen (θ) and the ratio of distance, diameter of the screen (a:d) and inversely proportional to the value of the specific energy square (E). From modelling the average value of the discharge coefficient (Cd) between 0.1–2.75 with NSE = 0.71, MAE = 0 and RMSE = 0.12.

Abstract

Porous materials are used in many vibro-acoustic applications. Different models describe their perfor- mance according to material’s intrinsic characteristics. In this paper, an evaluation of the effect of the porous and geometrical parameters of a liner on the acoustic power attenuation of an axisymmetric lined duct was performed using multimodal scattering matrix. The studied liner is composed by a porous ma- terial covered by a perforated plate. Empirical and phenomenal models are used to calculate the acoustic impedance of the studied liner. The later is used as an input to evaluate the duct attenuation. By varying the values of each parameter, its influence is observed, discussed and deduced

Abstract

Duct silencers provide effective noise reduction for heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems. These silencers can achieve an excellent sound attenuation through the attributes of their design. The reactive silencer works on the principle of high reflection of sound waves at low frequencies. On the other hand, the dissipative silencer works on the principle of sound absorption, which is very effective at high-frequencies. Combining these two kinds of silencers allowed covering the whole frequency range. In this paper, the effect of liner characteristics composed of a perforated plate backed by a porous material and geometry discontinuities on the acoustic power attenuation of lined ducts is evaluated. This objective is achieved by using a numerical model to compute the multimodal scattering matrix, thus allowing deducing the acoustic power attenuation. The numerical results are obtained for six configurations, including cases of narrowing and widening of a radius duct with sudden or progressive discontinuities. Numerical acoustic power attenuation shows the relative influence of the variation in the values of each parameter of the liner, and of each type of radius discontinuities of ducts.

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a multi-layer micro-perforated panel structure based on a curled space for broadband sound absorption at low frequencies, which increases the number of perforated panel layers in a limited space using a curled space. The absorption coefficients of the structure under plane wave conditions were calculated using the transfer matrix method and the finite element method. It is demonstrated that the multilayer micro-perforated panel structure can ensure high absorption (consistently over 90%) in the frequency range of 400~5000 Hz. The sound absorption mechanism of the multi-layer micro-perforated panel structure is investigated by using the acoustic impedance along with the reflection coefficient of the complex frequency surface. In addition, we also discuss the effects of the micro-perforated panel parameters on the structural sound absorption coefficient. The results show that the proposed multi-layer micro-perforated panel structure provides an excellent solution for sound absorption in a limited space.
