Abstract
Aircraft noise emissions are a problem that negatively affects human health, directly or indirectly. For this reason, examining and managing the noise effects caused by aircrafts at the airports is important for the sustainable development of aviation. In the present study, a noise management model based on the multiapproach method, including some actions related to aircraft noise, has been created. The model was applied to the International Eskisehir Hasan Polatkan Airport (LTBY). Within the scope of the model, in the first stage, in 365 days, day, evening and night noise levels around the airport were simulated using IMMI software under the European noise directive and European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC) doc 29-interim was also used to measure aircraft noise. In the second stage, the noise generated by the Cessna 172-S aircraft under different operating conditions experimentally measured was carried out. After the model had been applied to LTBY, improvement opportunities for aircraft noise were evaluated. It is thought that the study and its results will help other civil airports on the issue of noise problem at airports.
Highlights
Aircraft noise emissions from the past have become one of the important research topics in environmental management in aviation
To evaluate the mapping of the aircraft noise, aircraft noise map of the airport was modelled for the year of 2018 using IMMI software
When the noise mapping results were evaluated, it was observed that the noise level, which would adversely affect human health, was not exceeded
Summary
Aircraft noise emissions from the past have become one of the important research topics in environmental management in aviation. An aircraft has components that generate noise, such as the engine, main gear brake system, nose gear brake system and airframe system (Isermann and Bertsch 2019; Bertsch et al 2019). Aircraft landing detail and aircraft wheel configuration are effective parameters in noise production (Shafabakhsh et al 2018). With technological advances, these components are more efficient in terms of reducing noise generation. It is observed that aircraft and engine manufacturers made significant improvements in noise in the production of new generation aircraft engines to prevent noise emission caused by aircraft. In areas close to airports, people are disturbed by the noise generated by aircrafts during landing, takeoff and ground operations. It is observed that many of the existing airports in the world are mostly located near city centers and dense settlements (AIRBUS 2016)
