Local Noise Dissipation Mechanism and Flow Impedance in Acoustic Liner Grazed by Turbulent Flow and Acoustic Wave

Abstract. The acoustic energy dissipation mechanisms of a single-degree-of-freedom liner under grazing turbulent flow are investigated using high-fidelity lattice-Boltzmann very-large-eddy simulations. Viscous and vortex-shedding contributions are quantified through stress-based integration and Howe’s energy corollary. Results confirm that grazing flow modifies local shear structures and enhances dissipation at more downstream locations. The evolving flow field alters liner impedance and shifts the balance between viscous and vortical losses, emphasizing the importance of flow development in liner characterization.
