This model studies a small orifice located in a duct. The transmission and reflection coefficients of the system are computed in the presence of a bias flow using the linearized Navier-Stokes equations. For certain frequencies the transmission coefficient shows amplification (T>1). This ... Read More
This tutorial model shows how a user-defined coordinate system can be used to create any type of directional polarization of a piezoelectric material. Results are shown for the case of radial polarization of a piezoelectric disk. The piezoelectric material is PZT-5H. The example shows a ... Read More
This tutorial demonstrates a full electro-vibroacoustic analysis of a conceptual electrostatic speaker driver, composed of thin conducting plastic diaphragm residing between two perforated metal sheets called grids or stators. When an audio signal is applied to the grids (out of phase), ... Read More
This tutorial computes the transfer matrix of a tube and coupler measurement test setup. This type of setup is used for standardized testing, for example, for miniature loudspeakers or hearing aids. The Port boundary condition in Pressure Acoustics, Frequency Domain is used together ... Read More
This small tutorial model studies energy conservation in a small conceptual test setup. The model has an inlet and outlet (modeled using ports) and a Helmholtz resonator with a very narrow neck. The acoustics in the narrow neck are modeled with Thermoviscous Acoustic for a detailed ... Read More
This example presents how different sound absorption models can make a difference in room acoustics with a wave-based, time-domain acoustics simulation. It also introduces how to obtain a band-limited impulse response for room acoustic evaluation using time-domain modeling. You can ... Read More
In microfluidic devices, it is a challenge to mix different fluids. One method is to use acoustic streaming to create a flow which enhances the mixing of two fluids. In this model, the vibrations of PDMS structures in a channel induces fast acoustic streaming used for mixing a diluted ... Read More
This model computes the specific acoustic radiation impedance of a very small circular vent in a flanged configuration. The model includes thermoviscous losses. The radiation impedance is fitted using a simple RL circuit which gives a simple lumped representation. The results are used ... Read More
This model analyzes the scattering of a plane propagating modulated Gaussian pulse off a submarine hull. The scattered field and the spatial response are also determined. The model uses the Pressure Acoustics, Time Explicit interface to model this large acoustic model in the time domain. ... Read More
In acoustofluidics, acoustics is used to manipulate particles and fluids in microfluidic devices. This model demonstrates the phenomena of the inhomogeneous acoustic body force and how it can move a fluid with an inhomogeneous density due to a solute. The model is of a 2D cross section ...
