Quantitative criteria to design optimal permeable trailing edges for noise abatement

An experimental study on broadband noise scattered by permeable trailing edges with different pore arrangements is performed. A NACA 0018 airfoil with chord c = 0.2 m is investigated at chord-based Reynolds numbers ranging from 1.4 × 10⁵ to 3.8 × 10⁵ and angles of attack of 0.2 and 5.4 degrees. Noise emission from five...
