When working with your own modeling project of an acoustic driver, you will typically either draw the geometry in COMSOL Multiphysics, or import a CAD file of the driver itself and add the surrounding air and PML domains. Here, the entire geometry is imported as a sequence from the geometry file. The instructions to the geometry can be found in the appendix at the end of this document.

While the material properties used in this model are partly made up, they resemble those used in a real driver. The coil former has properties representative of glass fiber materials. The spider, acting as a spring, is made of a phenolic cloth with a much lower stiffness. The material used in the coil is taken to be lighter than copper, as the wire is insulated and does not completely fill the coil domain. The surround, finally, is a light resistive foam.

Materials

Except for air and soft Iron, the materials you will use all come from a material library created especially for this model (to be loaded from the file loudspeaker_driver_materials.mph). You may notice that some of the materials will report missing properties. For example, the composite does not include any electromagnetic properties. This is fine, as you will not model the magnetic fields in the domains where the composite is used.

Mesh 1

The mesh used in computing the impedance needs to resolve the induced eddy currents in the pole piece and the top plate. For the results to be accurate, the skin depth needs to be resolved by at least 1, preferably 2 quadratic elements.

With a conductivity of 1.12e7 S/m and a peak relative permeability of 1200, the skin depth in the iron at the maximum frequency of 8 kHz does not go below 0.05 mm. In practice, most of the induced currents will run in regions of the pole piece where the biased relative permeability is much less than 1200, which makes the skin depth greater. In this model, it is therefore sufficient to use a mesh size of 0.5 mm along the iron surfaces that are closest to the voice coil.

For the acoustic-structure interaction, the air domain and the thin moving structures also need to be well resolved. The PML is preferably meshed with mapped elements, use 8 elements for the default polynomial scaling.
