Numerical Analysis of Tonal Noise Emissions from Open and Shrouded Contra-Rotating Propellers

As market growth projections for Urban Air Mobility vehicles (UAMs) skyrocket, their presence in urban environments is likely to become increasingly prevalent, as will their noise. This creates a disturbance to both humans and wildlife, previously unaffected by aircraft noise. Further reinforcing the concern is the new multi-rotor designs, which...
