Abstract

Describes the development of a new finite element model to analyse the propagation of sound through duct system components. The element model was first tested by predicting the acoustic resonant frequencies of hard walled cavities. It was then used to predict the acoustic propagation characteristics of duct bends and junctions, including higher order mode propagation in attached straight ducts, and the convective effect of low Mach number air flow
