Propeller Blade Optimisation for Minimised Perceived Noise

The Role of Blade Sweep and Comparison with Physical Noise Minimisation

Growing interest in efficient short-haul and electric regional aviation has renewed focus on propeller-driven aircraft, although open rotors pose significant noise challenges. This study investigates how noise perception—quantified by the Effective Perceived Noise Level (EPNL)—in ...
This report was written as part of the Design Synthesis Exercise, a 10 week project in which groups of 10 members create a design to obtain their bachelor’s degree at the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering. AirEco’s task is to design and develop a revolutionary and sustainable solu ...
