Research on numerical calculation method to aerodynamic noise in high velocity environment

摘要

At present, the flight velocity and flight performance of an aircraft are higher, so that aerodynamic noise caused by an engine jet in the take-off and flight processes can reach 160 dB. The high strength of the jet aerodynamic noise is very harmful to vehicle drivers, vehicle structures and airborne equipments. Two numerical calculation methods to aerodynamic noise, the FW-H acoustic analogy method and the FW-H acoustic analogy and boundary element combining method, were introduced. These two methods were used to predict the aerodynamic noise, and the numerical calculation results were compared with the physical experimental results. Results show that the FW-H acoustic analogy method can predict aerodynamic noise. However, it cannot predict the sound field distribution. The FW-H acoustic analogy and boundary element combining method is able to predict the sound field distribution with sound reflection.
