A Subdomain Method for the Aeroacoustic Simulation of a Generic Side View Mirror

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aerodynamic noise caused by the flow field around a generic side view mirror (SVM) was simulated using a subdomain large eddy simulation (LES) method. In this method, the LES solution could be run only in the subdomain, which can be the flow field near the SVM. The subdomain LES results show good agreement with the cited experimental data in some related works. With the principal advantage of saving CFD cell numbers, the subdomain LES method would be a perspective way to simulate the aerodynamic noise of complex geometries such as the real automobiles.
