Abstract :
In Workbench platform it applies Fluent to take numerical simulation to thermal acoustic effect what is working principle of thermoacoustic refrigerator, and it verifies the essence of thermal acoustic effect that the pressure changes will lead to a corresponding change in the temperature. It introduces the building of model, grid, setting the boundary conditions and solution process, analyses pressure and temperature changes in the flow field. The simulation results provides gist for further complete machine simulation of thermoacoustic refrigeration.
