Theory
The end correction of an isolated hole is the mass of air set in motion beside it on both sides. When holes sit close together their near fields overlap, so each hole carries less extra mass. The end correction is multiplied by a factor :
- Elnady: the short form of (Elnady et al., 2010) eq. (11), equation (1); the Elnady impedance model always uses it.
- Fok: the Fok function , a series in , equation (2), with the coefficients as listed in Elnady's doctoral thesis (Elnady, 2004) (Paper III, eq. 39). It multiplies the end correction; the thesis notes that an older formulation divided by it.
Equations
| where | meaning | unit |
|---|---|---|
| Open-area ratio | - | |
| End-correction factor (End-correction factor (thin plate)) | - | |
| Hole diameter | m |
Default and rule
- Default
- none
- Rule
None (, the isolated-hole end correction).
- Source
(Elnady et al., 2010) eq. (11); the Fok series as listed in Elnady's doctoral thesis (Elnady, 2004), Paper III eq. 39.
Valid range none | Elnady short form | Fok function (thin-plate physics baseline only)
Effect
At σ = 0.1 the Elnady factor is 0.55 and the Fok function 0.57: the end correction roughly halves.
Applies to
The thin-plate physics baseline only.
