On the one-dimensional acoustic propagation in conical ducts with stationary mean flow.
This paper proposes a direct time-domain calculation of the time-domain responses of anechoic conical tubes with steady weak mean flow. The starting point is the approximated linear one-dimensional wave equation governing the velocity potential for the case of steady flow with low Mach number. A traveling solution with general space-dependent propagation velocity is then proposed from which the inward and outward pressure and velocity impulse responses can be obtained. The results include the well-known responses of conical and cylindrical ducts with zero mean flow.
