How do i get radiation patterns that are concentric from a point source at increasing radii?

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi

I've just started working on the acoustic domain.
I'm stuck at a simple and elementary problem.

The model has a point source at the center with spherical wave radiation as a boundary condition.
I'm checking the polar plots for the sound levels at different distances from the point source.
Expected results would have concentric pressure level polar plots at different radii.

The model does not show that. I've attached the model in this post.
I'm quite confused and lost at this moment.
Am i missing a boundary condition or is my post processing at fault.

Any kind of response will be of great help.

Regards
Glenston
