It is found that, the relaxation time always strengthens the global nonequilibrium(GNE), entropy of mixing, and free enthalpy of mixing. Specifically, as a combined effect of physical gradients and nonequilibrium area, the GNE intensity first increases but decreases during the whole life-cycle of KHI. The growth rate of entropy of mixing shows firstly reducing, then increasing, and finally decreasing trends during the KHI process. The trend of the free enthalpy of mixing is opposite to that of the entropy of mixing. Detailed explanations are:(i) Initially,binary diffusion smooths quickly the sharp gradient in the mole fraction, which results in a steeply decreasing mixing rate.(ii) Afterwards, the mixing process is significantly promoted by the increasing length of material interface in the evolution of the KHI.(iii) As physical gradients are smoothed due to the binary diffusion and dissipation, the mixing rate reduces and approaches zero in the final stage. Moreover, with the increasing Atwood number, the global strength of viscous stresses on the heavy(light) medium reduces(increases), because the heavy(light) medium has a relatively small(large) velocity change. Furthermore, for a smaller Atwood number, the peaks of nonequilibrium manifestations emerge earlier, the entropy of mixing and free enthalpy of mixing change faster, because the KHI initiates a higher growth rate.展开更多

Owing to the presence of HRs, the effective impedance of metal surface boundary can be manipulated. By optimizing the distribution of HRs, the asymmetric effective impedance boundary will be obtained, which contributes to generating tunable acoustic radiation pattern such as directional acoustic beaming. These dipole-like radiation patterns have high radiation efficiency, no finger- print of sidelobes, and a wide tunable range of the radiation pattern directivity angle which can be steered by the spatial displacements of HRs.展开更多

The passive Helmholtz resonator only works effectively over a narrow frequency range around resonance frequency. Changes in the exciting frequency and temperature will decrease the noise reduction performance. Many studies have been conducted on incorporating a Helmholtz resonator with active noise control to tuning the resonance frequency of HRs. The objective of this study is to study the effect of flow on the semi active Helmholtz resonator for duct noise control. Owing to a low Mach number air flow, the discontinuity condition at the joint is analytically formulated according to the conservation of the momentum and mass of air flow. Based on the transfer function at the junction, a controller function is proposed to tune the semi-active Helmholtz resonator under flow condition.展开更多

The experimental device is designed, and the high-speed digital photographic system is adopted to obtain the expansion sequence processes of Taylor cavities formed by the four wall jets. Meanwhile, the influence of the injection pressure on the axial expansion property of the four wall jets is discussed. Based on the experiments, a three-dimensional unsteady mathematical model is established to simulate the turbulent flow process of the four wall jets expanding in liquid, and the temporal and spatial distribution laws of phase, pressure, temperature, and velocity and the evolution rules of vortices are illustrated in detail. Results show that, accompanied by the jets expanding downstream, the four wall combustion-gas jets get close to each other and achieve convergence eventually under induction of the interference effect between multiple jets. Meanwhile, the heads of the Taylor cavities separate from the observation chamber wall and offset to the central axis of the observation chamber with time going on. The numerical simulation results of the four wall combustion-gas jets coincide well with the experimental data.展开更多
