An Experimental Study and Theoretical Simulation of Jet-Wing Interaction Noise

Abstract

The use of high-bypass-ratio engines in civil aviation has resulted in the occurrence of an additional noise source associated with noise of interaction between a jet and an airplane wing. A theoretical model is proposed for predicting the characteristics of interaction noise based on the near-field parameters for an isolated jet. The required near-field characteristics were obtained experimentally in the AC-2 anechoic chamber of the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI) using a system of azimuthal microphone arrays. Noise in the far-field zone was also measured for both an isolated jet and a jet with a closely located plate simulating a wing. The results of comparing the directivities and spectra of interaction noise obtained using the proposed model and measured experimentally are in good agreement.
