Abstract

A previous experimental investigation of the broadband self noise radiated by an industrial cambered controlled-diffusion airfoil embedded in an homogeneous flow at low Mach number has been extended to various aerodynamic loadings. The instrumented airfoil is placed at the exit of an open-jet anechoic wind tunnel, with a jet width of about four chord lengths. Sound is measured in the far field at the same time as the statistical properties of the wall-pressure fluctuations close to the trailing edge. A new set of mean wall-pressure data has been collected on this airfoil at a chord Reynolds number of 2.9 x 105, which provides some insight on the Reynolds-number effect. Two previously investigated flow regimes with different statistical behaviors are investigated by changing the angle of attack from 8 to 15 deg. They respectively correspond to the nearly separated boundary layer with vortex shedding at the trailing edge and to the turbulent boundary layer initiated by a leading-edge separation.
