Concave serrations on broadband trailing edge noise reduction

The far-field noise and flow field of a novel curved trailing-edge serration (i.e. iron-shaped) are investigated. Spectra of the far-field broadband noise, directivity plots and the flow-field over the iron-shaped serration are obtained from numerical computations performed using a compressible Lattice-Boltzmann solver. The new design is...

Effects of fluid-structure interaction on the trailing-edge noise

In the present study, the effects of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) on the trailingedge noise are numerically investigated, particularly for the cases of wake instability and Karman vortex shedding. The trailing-edge is modelled as a flat plate with an elastic cantilever end and its flow-induced vibration is solved by an eigenmode analysis...

Noise due to unsteady flow past trailing edges

This paper presents two-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS) of noise generated at trailing edges (TE) with zero thickness. The simulations are conducted specifying either no-slip or slip walls in order to investigate viscous effects. In both cases, small amplitude disturbances are introduced close to the inflow boundary that serve as...
