Consequently, discontinuities of the source field occur on the acoustic mesh, which can diminish the quality of the results. A common way to handle truncated source fields is spatial windowing. The present work focuses on aeroacoustic approaches that use time derivatives of the incompressible base flow pressure as acoustic source terms and their distinctive character with respect to source domain truncation. Especially for those approaches, a novel alternative to spatial windowing is proposed, which uses a simplified pressure field continuation beyond the source domain. Numerical results display that spatial windowing and simplified pressure field continuation can both treat truncated source fields effectively. The windowing approach is computationally cheaper but exhibits issues for small flow computation domains. The simplified pressure field continuation can overcome these and other issues yielding very good results while adding little computational cost.en1475-472X20177-8563581Computational aeroacousticshydrodynamic/acoustic splittingsource domain truncationtime derivative source termsJournal Article10.1177/1475472X17727611Other
