AcousticRadiationValue
AcousticRadiationValue[pred,vars,pars]
represents a time or frequency radiation boundary condition for PDEs with predicate pred indicating where it applies, with model variables vars and global parameters pars.
AcousticRadiationValue[pred,vars,pars,lkey]
represents a time or frequency domain boundary condition with local parameters specified in pars[lkey].
Details




- AcousticRadiationValue specifies a boundary condition for AcousticPDEComponent and is used as part of the modeling equation:
- AcousticRadiationValue is typically used to model sound sources and sinks on the boundary.
- AcousticRadiationValue models a time or frequency domain boundary source or sink with dependent variable pressure
in
, independent variables
in
and time variable
in
or frequency variable
in
.
- Time-dependent model variables vars are vars={p[t,x1,…,xn],t,{x1,…,xn}}.
- Frequency-dependent model variables vars are vars={p[x1,…,xn],ω,{x1,…,xn}}.
- The time domain acoustics model AcousticPDEComponent is based on a wave equation with time variable
, density
, sound speed
and sound sources
and
:
- The frequency domain acoustics model AcousticPDEComponent is based on a Helmholtz equation with angular frequency
:
- The time domain radiation value AcousticRadiationValue with boundary pressure source
, boundary unit normal vector
and unit wave direction vector
models:
- The frequency domain radiation value AcousticRadiationValue models:
- The dipole source
will only be valid within the domain and thus can be excluded from the boundary conditions.
- Model parameters pars are specified as for AcousticPDEComponent.
- The following model parameters pars can be given:
-
parameter default symbol "BoundaryUnitNormal" Automatic "MassDensity" 1 , density of media in
"Material" Automatic "SoundSpeed" 1 , speed of sound in
"SoundDirectionVector" , sound direction vector
"SoundIncidentPressure" 0 , sound pressure in
- The relation between the outward-pointing boundary unit normal vector
and the incident sound wave direction vector
is illustrated in the following:
- AcousticRadiationValue combines an AcousticPressureCondition and an AcousticAbsorbingValue.
- AcousticRadiationValue evaluates to a generalized NeumannValue.
- The boundary predicate pred can be specified as in NeumannValue.
- An absorbing boundary can be used with:
-
analysis type applicable Time Domain Yes Frequency Domain Yes Eigenfrequency No - If the AcousticRadiationValue depends on parameters
that are specified in the association pars as …,keypi…,pivi,…], the parameters
are replaced with
