Abstract
An acoustic‐driven thermoacoustic device, which is used to investigate acoustic characteristics of a regenerator, was designed and manufactured. A model of the acoustic characteristics of the regenerator is discussed. The acoustic characteristics of the regenerator, such as acoustic impedance Ẑ~n~, reflection coefficient $\hat{\alpha}_{n}$, transmission loss TL, and phase angle $\hat{\theta}$ between incident and reflected wave at x=0, were obtained by processing the experimental results with the correlation‐spectra analysis (the auto‐ and cross‐spectra) methods theoretically. Comparisons of acoustic characteristics between two cases, A (regenerator) and B (regenerator and two additional heat exchangers), are discussed. Different heating power influence on acoustic characteristics is also investigated. The results obtained will be helpful in further investigations on the regenerator model. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
