.. role:: xml(code) :language: xml ************** Acoustic waves ************** This test case is similar to the Euler one: :doc:`Single-phase acoustic waves `. However, a bubble is added in the middle of the domain. To recall, this is a plain pressure field where a source term is used to generate one-way acoustic waves. This work constitutes an adaptation of the work of Maeda & Colonius for single-phase flows :cite:`maeda2017source` to a multiphase system of equations. The waves here have a sinusoidal shape. 4 pulses are sent at a frequency of 300 kHz and have a pressure amplitude of 10 kPa. This case is a 2D Cartesian test case. The domain is only composed of water. The source term is located at 10.e-3 m in *x* and *y* directions and pulses are directed toward the *x* direction. This test is referenced in *./libTests/referenceTestCases/PUEq/2D/acousticWave/planeSinusoidalPulse/*. The corresponding uncommented line in *ECOGEN.xml* is: .. code-block:: xml ./libTests/referenceTestCases/PUEq/2D/acousticWave/planeSinusoidalPulse/ The initial characteristics of the run are: +-----------------------------+----------------------+ | Characteristic | Value | +=============================+======================+ | Dimension | 40.e-3 m x 20.e-3 m | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ | Initial mesh size | 200 x 100 | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ | AMR max level | 0 | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ | Boundary conditions | non-reflecting | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ | Final solution time | 25.e-6 s | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ | Solution printing frequency | 5.e-7 s | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ | Precision | 2nd order (MC) | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ Results are shown in :numref:`Fig:testCases:PUEq:AcousticWave:Anim` where one can observe the one-way pulses from a point source, therefore spreading cylindrically (2D here) but with a main direction (*x* direction). The pulses are reflected from the interactions with the bubble (in black). .. _Fig:testCases:PUEq:AcousticWave:Anim: .. figure:: ./_static/testCases/PUEq/acousticWave/sinusPulseAnimation.* :scale: 120% :align: center One-way sinusoidal acoustic waves in water interacting with a bubble.
