Hydroacoustic Characterisation of the AMC Cavitation Tunnel
conference contribution
posted on 2023-05-23, 08:17 authored by Doolan, C, Paul BrandnerPaul Brandner, Butler, D, Bryce PearceBryce Pearce, Moreau, D, Brooks, LThis paper presents recent results from an Industry-University-Defence collaborative project whose aim is to characterise the hydroacoustic environment of the Australian Maritime College Cavitation Tunnel. After summarising the operation of the tunnel, a methodology for measuring and processing the hydroacoustic measurements is presented that includes a technique for reducing the level of turbulent wall pressure fluctuations on the hydrophone measurement. The background noise levels of the tunnel are presented for a variety of operating conditions and they compare favourably with other hydroacoustic test faciltities internationally.
