Abstract

Analytical and numerical assessments of the indirect noise generated through a nozzle are presented. The configuration corresponds to an experimental setup operated at DLR by Bake et al. (2008) where an entropy wave is generated upstream of the nozzle by means of an electrical heating device. Both 3-D and 2-D axisymmetric simulations are performed to demonstrate that the experiment is mostly driven by linear acoustic phenomena, including pressure wave reflection at the outlet and entropy-to-acoustic conversion in the accelerated regions. Results show that the acoustic impedance downstream of the nozzle must be accounted for appropriately in order to recover the experimental pressure signal. A good agreement is also obtained with a purely analytical assessment based on the Marble and Candel compact nozzle approximation. To cite this article: M. Leyko et al., C. R. Mecanique 337 (2009).
