Abstract

The underwater acoustic radiation of the submarine power cabin has recently become a hot topic in the industry and also in the academia. In this article, the vibration and underwater acoustic radiation of a ring-stiffened conical shell with bases are investigated numerically by means of the combination of the finite element method and boundary element method. The acoustic radiation field is obtained by the traditional acoustic field model and ISO acoustic field model, respectively. A series of numerical examples are given, and the results are compared. Besides, the sound pressure at different positions with frequency is further studied. It is shown that the sound radiated by the structure mainly propagates to the side directions of the shell and propagates relatively less to the front side and the rear side.
