Zandbergen, T. (author), Martlew, D.L. (author)The National Aerospace Laboratory NLR in the Netherlands and the National Gas Turbine Establishment NOTE operate similar acoustic flow duct facilities but with differences in their respective approaches to the measurement of attenuation and impedance of duct linings. A joint exercise was arranged with the object of comparing methods and results,...report 1981

Rienstra, S.W. (author)The present report describes a theory to calculate the sound propagation (including attenuation, reflection, radiation) through a three-sectioned cylindrical flow duct, modelling an aero-engine inlet. The flow is uniform apart from a thin boundary layer; two of the three sections are hardwalled, with an impedance-walled section in between. The...report 1987

Arce Leon, C.A. (author), Ragni, D. (author), Pröbsting, S. (author), Scarano, F. (author), Madsen, Jesper (author)The flow past a NACA 0018 airfoil with sawtooth trailing edge serrations has been investigated using stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (PIV). The serration flap angle and airfoil incidence are varied in order to study the effect of secondary flow establishing between the suction and pressure sides of the serrations. The flow topology...journal article 2016

Arce Leon, C.A. (author), Merino Martinez, R. (author), Pröbsting, S. (author), Ragni, D. (author), Avallone, F. (author)The trailing edge of a NACA 0018 airfoil is modified through the attachment of serrations with different degrees of permeability. Acoustic beamforming is used to inspect the turbulent boundary layer-trailing edge noise emissions from the unmodified and serrated trailing edges. Different freestream velocities and angles of attack are investigated...journal article 2017

Arce Leon, C.A. (author)The flow near the surface, and the acoustic emissions of trailing edge serrations are investigated in this work. The use of this family of aerodynamic devices on airfoils is intended for the reduction of turbulent boundary layer-trailing edge noise (TBL-TE noise). This purpose has been well demonstrated in wind tunnel and numerical experiments....doctoral thesis 2017

(author), Madsen, Jesper (author)The broadband noise generated by the scattering of turbulent flow at the trailing edge of a NACA 0018 airfoil with trailing edge serrations is investigated, varying both the airfoil angle of attack and serration flap angle. Acoustic emissions from the trailing edge are measured using a microphone array. The noise level is observed to be...journal article 2017

Guariglia, Daniel (author), Rubio Carpio, A. (author), Schram, Christophe (author)Shock-cell noise occurs in aero-engines when the nozzle exhaust is supersonic and shock-cells are present in the jet. In commercial turbofan engines, at cruise, the secondary flow is often supersonic underexpanded, with the formation of annular shock-cells in the jet and consequent onset of shock-cell noise. This paper aims at describing the...journal article 2018

Merino Martinez, R. (author)With the continuous growth in demand for air traffic and wind turbines, the noise emissions they generate are becoming an increasingly important issue. To reduce their noise levels, it is essential to obtain accurate information about all the sound sources present. Phased microphone arrays and acoustic imaging methods allow for the estimation of...doctoral thesis 2018

Romani, G. (author), Ye, Q. (author), Avallone, F. (author), Ragni, D. (author), Casalino, D. (author)Aim of this paper is to investigate the effects of the turbulent flow developing over a fuselage on fan noise for BLI embedded propulsion systems. Such configurations can suffer from inlet flow distortions and ingestion of turbulence at the fan plane with consequent impact on both broadband and tonal fan noise. The analysis is performed on a...journal article 2020
