z0=ρ0c0 is called the characteristic acoustic impedance of the fluid. The specific acoustic impedance z is complex, because for waves that are not plane the velocity may be out of phase with the pressure. However, for plane waves the specific acoustic impedance is real and an important fluid property.
The above description of plane waves can be extended to three-dimensional space by introducing a wavenumber vector k.
2.3.2 Helmholtz equation
Entering (2.40) into the wave Equation (2.27) provides
The ejωt term is often omitted and with k=ω/c0 we get the homogeneous.
2.3.3 Field Quantities: Sound Intensity, Energy Density and Sound Power
A sound wave carries a certain amount of energy that is moving with the speed of sound. We start with the instantaneous acoustic power Π:
F is the force acting on a fluid particle and v the associated velocity. The acoustic intensity I is defined as the power per unit area A=An in the direction of the unit vector n and with F=pAn we get:
As in Equation (1.48) the time average is given by:
Using the harmonic plane wave solutions for pressure (2.34) and velocity (2.36)
the time averaged mean intensity yields:
and finally:
We see that the specific impedance z0=ρ0c0 relates the intensity to the squared pressure.
The kinetic energy density ekin in a control volume V0 is written as
The potential energy density epot follows from the adiabatic work integral as in equation (2.9)
If we use Equation (2.15) we get the change in density as a start for the change in volume
With unit mass M in the control volume V0 it follows from ρ=M/V0 that
Finally we get:
Pressure and velocity are in phase for plane waves; the same is true for the potential and kinetic energy density, so the total energy density is given by:
