Analysis of Nonlinear Characteristics of the Clarinet Exciter Obtained via a New Measurement Method

Résumé

A new method for measuring the nonlinear characteristic of the clarinet exciter, which binds the air flow entering into the clarinet with the pressure drop (∆p) across the reed, is described. It uses a clarinet mouthpiece equipped with a reed and an artificial lip whose position ψ is controlled by a micrometer screw. The mouthpiece is connected to a bottle in which a moderate vacuum is generated at the beginning of the experiment. After a short time lapse, the opening of the reed occurs. The ther-modynamics of the volume in isochoric conditions enables the calculation of the volume velocity entering the mouthpiece from the pressure measurement. 13 reeds with 10 different embouchures are measured. The measurements enabled the estimation of the equivalent aeraulic section S(∆p, ψ). We propose a model of S as a convex function of ∆p and ψ, defined as the sum of two 1D stiffening springs plus a porosity constant. The mean standard error of the model is 0.2%.
