Abstract: A sound-volume prediction apparatus acquires model information on an electronic device and positional information on an air intake section and/or an air-exhaust section of the electronic device. Furthermore, by using the model information and the positional information, the sound-volume prediction apparatus extends a sound ray that indicates a transmission route of sound generated by a sound source inside the electronic device toward the air-intake section and/or the air-exhaust section from the position of the sound source until the sound ray reaches the outside of the electronic device. The sound-volume prediction apparatus predicts sound transmission characteristics inside the electronic device by using geometric information on the flow path of the extended sound ray.

Abstract: The present invention provides a numerical analysis model data generating program, method, and system for generating numerical analysis model data, which is used for numerical analysis, on the basis of three-dimensional shape data of a structure that is an object of analysis. Three-dimensional shape data defining the structure is inputted. Holes included in the inputted three-dimensional shape data are extracted, and the size of each of the holes is calculated. If the size of a given hole is smaller than a predetermined size, the hole is filled. Thus, numerical analysis model data is generated. According to the present invention, when the numerical analysis model data is generated, a relatively small amount of analysis model data can be generated without adversely affecting the accuracy in numerical analysis.

Abstract: A counter-rotating axial flow fan with reduced noise at the target operating point achieved without modifying a front impeller, a rear impeller, or a middle stationary portion is provided. An annular rib including a projecting surface for generating turbulent flow is formed on an inner wall portion of a casing at a position off from the middle stationary portion to a side of the rear impeller, the projecting surface extending radially inwardly of the inner wall portion and extending continuously in the circumferential direction of the inner wall portion. A fluid striking the projecting surface for generating turbulent flow is partially disturbed to form a turbulent flow before entering an area in which the rear impeller is provided. The turbulent flow suppresses flow separation of a fluid flowing along the surfaces of rear blades of the rear impeller from the surfaces of the rear blades.
