Exa Releases PowerACOUSTICS 2.0

By DE Editors

Exa Corporation has announced the release of PowerACOUSTICS 2.0. Exa’s newest release offers a Far-Field Noise Module for accurate numerical prediction of flow-induced far-field noise, as well as wind noise source analyses, to provide insight for acoustic design improvement.

This new module extends Exa’s aeroacoustic applications and allows engineers to simulate flow-induced community noise problems for aircraft, rail transport, and rotating machinery applications. The PowerACOUSTICS Far-Field Noise Module coupled with Exa’s PowerFLOW provides engineers an integrated solution, enabling them to assess noise levels throughout the design process.

Some aeroacousitc capabilities of PowerACOUSTICS 2.0 Far-Field Noise Module and PowerFLOW include accurate transient flow fluctuation prediction, true rotating geometry, a fully coupled far-field noise solver, noise metrics and digital certification, and insight on noise source locations.
