For a single-component perfect gas, entropy perturbations are associated with the difference between the overall density fluctuation and that coming from the acoustic perturbation. Entropy perturbations can generate sound when accelerated/decelerated by a non-uniform flow and this is highly relevant to thermoacoustic instabilities for gas turbines and rocket engines, and to noise emission for aero-engines. Widely used theories to model this entropy-generated sound rely on quasi-1D assumptions for which questions of validity were raised recently from both numerical and experimental studies. In the present work, we build upon an acoustic analogy theory for this problem. This theory was initiated by Morfey (J. Sound Vib. 1973) and Ffowcs Williams and Howe (J. Fluid Mech. 1975) about 50 years ago and extended recently by Yang, Guzmán-Iñigo and Morgans (J. Fluid Mech. 2020) to study the effect of non-plane entropy waves at the inlet of a flow contraction on its sound generation. Comparisons against both numerical simulations and previous theory are performed to validate the results.

Often the measurements from different jet noise studies, which are thought to have been acquired at or corrected to identical jet conditions, do not match when compared to each other. This study looks at the nozzle-exit boundary layer as a possible factor for these differences. The nozzle-exit boundary layer state can easily be changed depending on the design of the jet-facility or the nozzle. To this end, jet noise measurements and nozzle-exit velocity profile measurements were acquired for nozzles where the nozzle-exit boundary state was changed either by using different types of nozzles, ASME nozzles versus conical nozzles, or extensions were added to the nozzles straight section. It is shown that as the laminar boundary layer transitions to turbulent, the high-frequency jet noise is reduced. In addition, development of a novel empirical correction for these effects was attempted.

I first met Shôn in October 1973. I had just started Part III of the Cambridge Mathematical Tripos – a post-graduate course that was retrospectively awarded a Masters’ Degree in Mathematics. After a summer job working with Ted Broadbent on aircraft noise at the Royal Aircraft Establishment in Farnborough, I had decided do a PhD in Aeroacoustics. I asked Sir James Lighthill for advice and he told me that he was now focused on biomechanics but a new professor had recently arrived in the Cambridge Department of Engineering and that I should ask him. I made contact with Shôn, saw him in his office that afternoon, and he agreed to supervise me for a PhD. As quickly and simply as that, I was on a path that for me was transformational, not only an exciting research future, but the start of my transition from mathematics into engineering. Throughout my career, Shôn continued to be a major influence on me as he has for many others.

The paper expands the scope of applying the Ffowcs Williams – Hawkings integration method. We propose using the acoustic field generated from time-dependent data stored on the FW-H control surface as the same common field for computational acoustic beamforming and dynamic mode decomposition methods to analyze the aerodynamic noise sources. We exemplify that it leads to obtaining mutually consistent and complementary information for reliable prediction of acoustic sources characteristics in the process of inverting data produced by a CFD simulation. Moreover, as the results of applying computational acoustic beamforming and dynamic mode decomposition methods depend on many geometric and algorithmic inputs, the proposed approach makes it possible to use various sets of the latter for a comprehensive analysis of obtained inversions and to form the final answer by an averaging procedure. We illustrate this by taking advantage of fast generating the examined acoustic field snapshots in any required region by the FW-H integration method for the recently developed new inverse computational acoustic beamforming algorithm and the standard dynamic mode decomposition method when carrying out a sensitivity study of the predicted acoustic source. The capabilities of the developed approach are demonstrated on the data of CFD scale-resolving simulation of turbulent flow over the 30P30N high-lift configuration.

Nearly 45 years ago, while I was a graduate student at Stanford University, I met Prof John E. Ffowcs Willams (affectionately called by his colleagues and Friends as “Shon”) with the last meeting being in Florence, Italy during 2014. During this intervening period, we developed a personal friendship that greatly influenced my practice as a teacher, researcher and an entrepreneur. Shon has excelled in all these aspects, which is succinctly chronicled, in this note, with illustrations.

Reduction of fan noise is an important problem in the successful deployment of drones and UAV's. This paper considers a new approach to reducing fan and propeller noise based upon micro vibrations of the propeller blades around their axis of support. Experimental testing was carried out on a five bladed fan arrangement. The micro fan blade vibrations are induced with a pitch link actuator arrangement driven by an electromagnetic actuator. When used in conjunction with a digital feedforward active noise controller, the micro blade vibrations were found to provide global attenuations of fan radiated sound the order of 5 to 10dB of the first few fan tones. The level of required vibrations and the associated electrical power required for the cancelling micro vibrations was shown to be very small compared to the fan motor power requirements. The results demonstrate that the innovative approach, termed “self active cancellation of fan noise”, has good potential for global reduction of fan and propeller noise.

Based on classical diffraction theories with modifications and extensions in analytical formulations and numerical implementations, a new code has been developed at NASA for the prediction of aircraft noise shielding, named as Propulsion Airframe Aeroacoustic Shielding Attenuation (PAAShA). The code is developed primarily for aircraft system noise predictions, although it may also be useable in other applications with acoustic shielding. The requirements for this code are driven by the need for a robust, capable code to use with NASA’s Aircraft Noise Prediction Program (ANOPP) for aircraft integration and system noise research. The requirements are met and include capabilities to use a wide range of aircraft geometries, rapid calculation times consistent with aircraft system noise problems, and the flexibility to model realistic noise source characteristics and distributions. The accuracy and robustness of the method are demonstrated in this paper with a set of problems, including a cylinder, a finite plate, a symmetrical two-dimensional airfoil, and a full three-dimensional hybrid wing body aircraft model tested in a wind tunnel. This range of problems demonstrates both smooth and sharp edge diffraction capabilities for a wide range of frequencies and low Mach number flow effects at low angles of attack. Predictions are shown to be accurate to within 1–4 dB over a wide range of the most significant frequencies and directivity angles. This is determined by comparing with data, which have experimental uncertainties, particularly at high frequencies, high angles, and source characteristics. The accuracy diminishes for geometries that include a significant reflection component, which is not calculated by the code. Accuracy can also be somewhat diminished for high azimuthal angles. Accurate modeling of the noise source, particularly its frequency and directivity characteristics, is essential to obtaining accurate results.

Flow-induced aerodynamic noise from four cylindrical shapes of infinite length at a low subcritical flow regime is studied using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and acoustic analogy. Numerical simulations are performed for short-span (length to diameter ratio of 3) cylinders, and a sound correction method based on equivalent/spatial coherence length has been applied to estimate noise from long-span cylinders. An attempt is made to compare spatial coherence lengths of four cross-sections at the same Reynolds number (Re). The sound correction method that is well established for circular cylinders proved effective for non-circular cross-sections also. Owing to the limitation in computational capacity, a well-resolved LES is still unachievable for higher Re flows and long-span cylinders without adopting a sound correction methodology. A grid resolution based on the characteristic length and velocity scale was adopted in simulation and proved effective for computing aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics. An ‘effective frequency band’ of sound pressure level-frequency curve is proposed that predicts over 99.5% of the overall sound pressure level, and features of this band for four cross-sections are presented.

With the objective to improve the understanding of the dominant fan noise source mechanisms, a comprehensive experimental study was conducted at a low speed fan test rig. The aerodynamic fan map as well as the acoustic characteristics of the fan was measured for a new blade integrated disk (Blisk) rotor with systematic variation of the shaft speed and throttling. The interpretation of the results is supported by simulations of the experiment with a physics-based analytical in-house tool for fan noise prediction. For the acoustic measurements, an array of wall-flushed microphones was used in the inlet section. By means of radial mode analysis techniques, the broadband and tonal sound powers are calculated for each operating point. In the obtained comprehensive database, systematic variations of the tonal and broadband sound power with the flow rate are found. These patterns can only partly be correlated to the varying incidence angle of the rotor blades. Comparing the mode distributions of the measured noise and the analytical models then allows conclusions on the predominant noise sources of rotor–stator interaction and inflow-rotor interaction.

The aerodynamic noise behavior of flow passing the simplified leading car and nose car scale models of a high-speed train is investigated through the vortex sound theory and acoustic analogy approach. The unsteady flow developed around the geometries is solved numerically and the data are applied to study the near-field quadrupole sound source and calculate the far-field noise radiated. It is found that the turbulent flow developed around the leading car is characterized by multi-scale vortices separated from the geometries. The intensity of volume dipole source is much larger than that of volume quadrupole source and the volume dipole source becomes the predominate source of the near-field quadrupole noise. The flow is separated noticeably in the regions of the nose, bogies, bogie cavities, and train tail of the leading car where the pressure fluctuations are generated largely upon the solid surfaces and correspondingly a dipole noise of high level is produced. By comparison, the noise contribution from the leading bogie and bogie cavity is larger than that from the other components. Moreover, the numerical and experimental results of train nose car model demonstrate that the flow around the bogie region is the dominant aerodynamic sound source. Therefore, the flow-induced noise generated from the leading cars may be reduced efficiently within a certain frequency range and specific direction by mitigating the flow interactions around the areas of leading bogie and bogie cavity.
