Summary

This chapter describes the basic analytic concepts and operations which are invoked throughout the book. Mathematical models of sound wave motion in ducts come from the solutions of the linearized forms of the basic fluid dynamic equations of unsteady fluid flow in frequency and wavenumber domains. The process of linearization is discussed in depth and the frequency and wavenumber transformations are defined rigorously. A quantity that is often of interest in duct acoustics is the acoustic power transmitted in a duct. Calculation of time-averaged acoustic power transmitted in ducts is described a unified manner. Finally, we describe the mathematical link with the analyses presented in the book and linear system dynamics. These topics are collected in this preliminary chapter as primer and also to avoid interruption of the continuity of discussions on the principal subjects.
