Abstract
A simplified cylindrical model of an aircraft fuselage is used to investigate the mechanisms of interior noise suppression of the synchrophasing technique. This investigation allows isolation of important parameters to define the characteristics of synchrophasing. The optimum synchrophase angle for maximum noise reduction is found for several interior microphone positions with pure tone source conditions. Noise reductions of up to 30dB are shown for some microphone positions, however, overall reductions are less. A computer algorithm is developed to decompose the modal composition of the cylinder vibration over a wide range of synchrophase angles. The circumferential modal response of the shell vibration is shown to govern the transmission of sound into the cylinder rather than localized transmission.
