[0072] The physical property parameters of the fluid are determined, including the density, the viscosity and the Reynolds number range, and the material characteristic parameters of the solid constituting the elbow are determined, including the elastic modulus, the Poisson's ratio, the density, the yield strength and the internal damping characteristics of the material;
[0073] Based on the determined geometric structure parameters and material characteristic parameters, a three-dimensional physical model of the elbow is constructed by parameterized modeling, and the fluid region and the solid region are distinguished in the modeling process. The fluid region is the internal cavity of the elbow, and the solid region is the pipe wall body of the elbow;
[0074] For the fluid region, the inlet velocity boundary condition, the volume flow boundary condition and the outlet static pressure boundary condition are set, and the no-slip boundary condition is applied to the contact surface between the fluid and the solid. For the solid region, the fixed end, the simply supported or free boundary condition is set according to the fixing mode and the working environment of the elbow;
[0075] The fluid field variables are initialized, including the initial velocity distribution, the initial pressure distribution and the turbulence intensity distribution, and the solid field variables are initialized, including the initial displacement, the initial stress and the initial strain;

[0078] The dynamic load exerted by the fluid on the pipe wall during the flow process is quantitatively described, and specifically includes:
[0079] Based on the bend fluid-structure coupling model, the velocity field and the pressure field of the fluid inside the bend are numerically solved through the flow control equation set, the velocity distribution, the pressure distribution and the flow direction change trend of the fluid along the bend path are obtained through steady-state solving, and the pressure field data are obtained;
[0080] Based on the pressure field data, the local pressure distribution characteristics of the inner wall surface of the bend are extracted, and the high-pressure area, the low-pressure area and the area with sharp pressure gradient change are identified;
[0081] The total pressure change trend exerted by the fluid on the wall is calculated through the tangential integral and the normal integral method, the dynamic load characteristics exerted by the fluid on the pipe wall during the flow process are quantitatively described, and a mathematical relationship model of the wall pressure change with the flow position change is established;
[0082] In combination with the results of the numerical solving of the velocity field and the pressure field, different flow characteristic regions inside the bend are identified, the flow characteristic regions include the main flow region, the separation region, the backflow region and the reattachment region.
[0083] Based on the turbulent flow model, the turbulent kinetic energy, the turbulent dissipation rate and the turbulent intensity distribution are calculated, and the fluid disturbance data are generated in combination with the pressure field data.
[0084] In the above embodiment, by quantitatively describing the dynamic load exerted by the fluid on the pipe wall during the flow process, the detailed correlation between the flow field change and the wall force can be revealed in depth. By using the wall pressure distribution extraction, tangential and normal integral method, not only the instantaneous load change under the action of the fluid can be identified, but also the mathematical relationship between the pressure change and the change of the bend pipe path can be established, which is helpful to find the potential local stress concentration and fatigue risk point. Combined with the comprehensive analysis of the turbulent kinetic energy, turbulent dissipation rate and turbulent intensity distribution, the mastery of the fluid disturbance characteristics is further strengthened, which effectively makes up for the limitations of traditional static load analysis under complex flow conditions, and provides high-precision input for subsequent noise source identification, local vibration analysis and structure optimization design.

The introduction of the acoustic source term and the establishment of the acoustic control equation make the flow-induced noise modeling more realistic and detailed. The control equation set for the small-amplitude sound wave propagation characteristics ensures that the numerical solution of the sound field remains stable and physically consistent under high-frequency and low-amplitude conditions. By reasonably setting the boundary conditions, the influence of sound wave reflection and standing wave on the calculation accuracy can be effectively avoided. The output of sound pressure distribution, sound pressure level change curve and sound energy spectrum density distribution provides an intuitive basis for energy distribution characteristic analysis in different frequency bands, and breaks through the problem that traditional acoustic simulation cannot accurately describe local sound pressure peak and energy concentration area, providing strong support for subsequent noise control strategy formulation and structural acoustic optimization.
