AB - Short circular holes with a low Mach number mean bias flow passing through them can absorb or generate acoustics. A recent semi-analytical model (Yang & Morgans, Journal of Sound and Vibration, 384 (2016) pp. 294-311 & 393 (2017) pp. 41-61) based on the Green’s function method has been shown to be able to capture both the acoustic absorption and gen-eration. The model indicates the importance of accurately capturing the path of the shedvorticity from the hole inlet edge. In the present work, the effect of this vorticity path on thehole acoustics is first studied systematically using the semi-analytical model. As the vorticitypath is sensitive to the sharpness of the hole inlet edge, CFD tools are then used to obtain thevortex sheet shape after slightly changing the hole inlet edge shape. The acoustic responses ofthese modified holes are obtained using the semi-analytical model. A slightly chamfered edge case and a small ellipse edge case are considered to show that a very small change to the shape of the hole inlet edge can give a significant difference in the hole acoustic response.
