Abstract
Abstract This paper investigates the effect of anisotropic turbulence on generating leading-edge aerofoil–turbulence interaction noise. Thin aerofoil theory is used to model an aerofoil as a semi-infinite plate, and the scattering of incoming turbulence is solved via the Wiener–Hopf technique. This theoretical solution encapsulates the diffraction problem for gust–aerofoil interaction and is integrated over a wavenumber–frequency spectrum to account for general incoming anisotropic turbulence. We develop a novel axisymmetric wavenumber–frequency model that captures the wall-normal variation in turbulence characteristics, differing from previous approaches. Then, the method of Gaussian decomposition, in which the generalised spectra are approximated through the weighted sum of individual Gaussian eddy models, is applied to fit the turbulence model to experimental data. Comparisons with experimental data show good agreement for a range of anisotropic ratios.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Fluid Mechanics is the leading international journal in the field and is essential reading for all those concerned with developments in fluid mechanics. It publishes authoritative articles covering theoretical, computational and experimental investigations of all aspects of the mechanics of fluids. Each issue contains papers on both the fundamental aspects of fluid mechanics, and their applications to other fields such as aeronautics, astrophysics, biology, chemical and mechanical engineering, hydraulics, meteorology, oceanography, geology, acoustics and combustion.
