DEVICE FOR MEASURING SOUND SOURCE DISTRIBUTION IN THREE-DIMENSIONAL SPACE
First Claim
1. A device for measuring a sound source distribution in three-dimensional space, the device comprising:
- a particle image velocimetry system that irradiates, with laser light, tracer particles included in a flow field around an object at two times that are separated by a very short period of time, and measures a velocity field of three velocity components in three-dimensional space from images at the two times of the tracer particles irradiated with the laser light taken by an imaging device; and
sound source distribution measuring device that measures a sound source distribution around the object from the velocity field of the three three-dimensional velocity components.

Abstract
A device for measuring a sound source distribution in three-dimensional space is provided in which tracer particles included in a steady flow around an object (12) are irradiated with a two-dimensional laser sheet (Ls) within an x-y plane at two times having a very short time interval, images of the irradiated tracer particles are taken from two intersecting directions in the laser sheet (Ls) by imaging means (32A, 32B), and two in-plane velocity components of the tracer particles in the laser sheet (Ls) and one out-of-plane velocity component perpendicular to the laser sheet (Ls) are measured based on the images taken at the two times. Further, the velocity field of the three velocity components in three-dimensional space is measured by obtaining three velocity components within a plurality of planes spaced apart in a z-axis direction perpendicular to the laser sheet (Ls) and stacking the three velocity components within the plurality of planes in the z-axis direction. Thus, since the sound source distribution measuring means measures the sound source distribution around the object (12) from the velocity field of the three three-dimensional velocity components based on the Proudman theorem, it is possible to measure the sound source distribution in three-dimensional space with good precision.
