Summary on Grant Application Form |
This proposal seeks funding to develop, build and test a near-real time processing system for quantitative aeroacoustic measurements using microphone arrays. The project is novel in using inverse methods to overcome deficiencies in conventional beamforming approaches, and combining commodity supercomputing and GRID/Web Services technology to provide a near-real time, network-based acquisition and processing system. Development and implementation of inverse method approaches will elevate microphone aeroacoustic array technology to provide quantitative measurement capabilities and will be a notable contribution to the field. The availability of a near real-time microphone array will open up several avenues of experimental aeroacoustics and measurement technology research for the proposer. Aeroacoustic measurements of cavity flow will further understanding of mode interactions, particularly in the three-dimensional case, and provide much needed benchmark data for the computational simulation community. Future experimental method developments will aim to provide simultaneous coupled flow-aeroacoustic measurements techniques. Future investigations of industrially relevant aeroacoustics problems will be made possible in the University's wind tunnels, and at other facilities.
