β¦ Synopsis
The propagation of pressure disturbances is investigated in an annular duct with mean potential axial and swirling flow. The swirling mean motion causes refraction of the acoustic waves as they propagate along the duct. A normal mode analysis leads to a non-linear eigenvalue problem. The numerical solutions are validated with an asymptotic analysis in the limit of large radius. The results show that while for a uniform flow the evanescent modes propagate at the same speed only upstream, for a swirling flow such modes propagate at different speeds both upstream and downstream. Moreover, most non-axisymmetric acoustic modes propagate opposite to the mean flow swirl.

Lined ducts often form a part of practical flow duct acoustic systems. The prediction of attenuation in such a duct has been a topic of research for many years. As far as the authors' knowiedge goes, the analysis of lined ducts with sheared mean flow has always been done numerically. In this paper,
An investigation is made of the phase velocity of the sound wave propagating in a two-dimensional flexible duct that carries a uniform flow. The flexible duct considered herein is composed of two parallel, thin elastic plates. The outer surfaces of the duct are in contact with a stationary fluid med
The sound pressure generated by a point mass monopole with arbitrary time dependence in a circular duct with uniform mean flow has been derived in the time domain. In a further step, the cross-correlation function and the cross-spectral density of the sound pressure between two microphone positions
