Greenspan Acoustic Viscometer: Numerical Calculations of Fields and Duct and Effects

Published

Author(s)

J B. Mehl

Abstract

Inertial and resistive end corrections for the Greenspan acoustic viscometer were computed. The numerical results apply to a circular duct coupling two concentric chambers and to ducts terminated by infinite plane baffles. The effects of rounding the sharp edge at the duct end are also reported.
