Sound Radiation Inside an Acoustic Canyon with a Surface Sound Source Located at the Bottom

摘要

The sound radiation inside an acoustic canyon has been analyzed for a surface sound source located at the bottom. Based on rigorous mathematical manipulations, the formulas of a high computational efficiency describing the sound pressure and sound power have been obtained. They can be easily adapted to describe the sound radiation of an arbitrary system of sound sources. As an example of their application, the sound radiation of a piston has been investigated. The asymptotic formulas of the sound power modal coefficients have been obtained. They can be used to significantly improve the numerical calculation of the sound power.
