Abstract:A study was made of the effect of the shape, the number, head and end shape of the turning vanes on the aerodynamic and noise elimination performances of the corner silencer in automotive aeroacoustic model wind tunnel by means of the computational flow dynamics (CFD) and the acoustic experiment. The results show that the optimization number of the turning vanes can be found by considering synthetically the pressure loss, the flow uniformity and the aerodynamic noise influence on noise elimination. Half ellipse head and tine end of the turning vane cause the lower pressure loss and aerodynamic noise than the hemicycle end. The corner silencer for the aeroacoustic model wind tunnel is better to eliminate middle and high frequency noise.
