Abstract

A multi-load method for determining the source data of acoustic two-port sources is presented. By eliminating the term of source strength, the scattering matrix can then be obtained by solving a set of nonlinear algebraic equations, and the source strength is determined by the scattering matrix and the directly measured spectrum matrix corresponding to one of the acoustic loads. Numerical simulations indicate that the proposed method is effective. The method has been tested on a loudspeaker and an axial flow fan in a duct. The source data obtained by this method show reasonable agreement with that measured by the direct method. The multi-load method avoids using external sources, and it can be used as an alternative method when the external source is not easy to realize in practice.
