Abstract
Molecular vibrational relaxation is responsible for the sound relaxational absorption in most excitable gases. However, it is desirable to calculate the contribution of each vibrational mode to sound multi-relaxation absorption. In this paper, first, a sound multi-relaxation absorption curve is decomposed into the sum of single-relaxation curves; second, based on this decomposed characteristic, a model to quantitatively analyze the vibrational mode contributions to sound absorption is proposed. The simulation results quantitatively demonstrates that the primary relaxation process connected with the lowest mode is the decisive factor for sound relaxational absorption, and the mode with lower vibrational frequency supplies higher contribution to the primary relaxation process in pure polyatomic gases.
