Development of Three-Dimensional PML Boundary Conditions for Aeroacoustics Applications

Abstract

Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) boundary conditions are derived in generalized curvilinear coordinates for three-dimensional aeroacoustic applications. The resulting governing equations are solved numerically by a four-stage Runge-Kutta scheme, with 4th/6th order compact finite difference formulation. The PML equations are programmed in a subroutine, which is easily incorporated to the main program LINEULER (Linearized Euler's equation solver). Two and three-dimensional benchmarks problems are solved to investigate the efficiency and accuracy of the PML boundary conditions. Investigations on the PML parameters have been conducted to determine the optimum combination of parameters used in the computations.
