More water utilities are adopting aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) to balance long-term water supply and demand. Due to large implementation and operation costs, ASR projects need to be optimized, particularly for energy use, which is a major operating...

A mass-conserved formulation for the Ffowcs-Williams?Hawkings (FW?H) integral is proposed to suppress contributions of spurious mass flux to the far-field sound at very low Mach numbers. The far-field condition and compact-source region assumptions are e...
