Acoustics - Mechanical Engineering, University of Canterbury, New Zealand

Prediction of air velocities and temperatures in vineyards using CFD/fluid modelling
techniques, some field work required. The project is part of a study concerned with frost protection of grapes using various techniques including large fans.

A range of projects are also available in the field of acoustics including:

Aeroacoustics
Building acoustics (sound absorption, sound transmission through walls, flanking noise)
Duct acoustics (sound absorption in ducts, flanking noise)
Environmental acoustics (wind turbine noise, inner city noise)
Electroacoustics

Acoustic facilities available include a reverberation room, anechoic room, low noise wind tunnel, duct noise test rig and automotive acoustic test facilities. These facilities are supported by an extensive range of Bruel and Kjaer instrumentation including a multi channel Pulse system, hand held analysers and sound intensity equipment. Computational tools available include SoundPlan, COMSOL and LMS Virtual.lab Acoustics.
