Lumped Loudspeaker Driver
Application ID: 12295
This is a model of a moving-coil loudspeaker where a lumped parameter analogy represents the behavior of the electrical and mechanical speaker components. The Thiele-Small parameters (small-signal parameters) serve as input to the lumped model, which is represented by an Electric Circuit physics. The lumped model is coupled to a 2D axisymmetric Pressure Acoustics model describing the surrounding air domain (above and below the speaker cone). The output from the model includes, among many things, the speaker sensitivity, the impedance, and the radiated acoustic power. The results are compared with an analytical solution based on the flat piston approximation.
The model requires the Acoustics Module and the AC/DC Module.
This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
however, additional products may be required to completely define and model it. Furthermore, this example may also be defined and modeled using components from the following product combinations:
- COMSOL Multiphysics® et

- soit le Module AC/DC, Module Battery Design, Module MEMS, Module Plasma, Module RF, ou Module Semiconductor
The combination of COMSOL® products required to model your application depends on several factors and may include boundary conditions, material properties, physics interfaces, and part libraries. Particular functionality may be common to several products.
