N2 - We propose a two-dimensional fan-shaped model to design an acoustical right-angle bend for sound beam. The quarter circular model is comprised of metamaterials with anistropic refractive index. Due to the gradual decrease of the refractive index from inner to external along the radius of the model, the sound velocity increase with the increase of radius, which leads to a capability of bending a sound propagating beam through a right angle with no reflection loss. The results are validated by simulations in the frequency range of 3500 Hz to 4500 Hz. This model may have potential for practical applications in various areas such as sound absorption in pipeline and detection in industry.
