Abstract

SoundgeneratedatlowMachnumberbyanairfoilin thewakeofarodisinvestigatednumerically.TheGaussian spanwise loss of coherence of the vortex shedding is shown to have a signie cant ine uence on the broadband noise. Spanwise effects are successfully introduced into a time-domain formulation of the Ffowcs-Williams ‐Hawkings analogy, which is applied to aerodynamicdata computed on various contoursaround the sourceregion. Itisshown that a careful choice of these contours is required. The e owe eld is obtained from a two-dimensional Reynolds averaged Navier ‐Stokes calculation. Computed far-e eld spectra compare very well to measurements obtained in an accompanying experiment. Nomenclature Cp = pressure coefe cient c = airfoil chord d = rod diameter f = frequency g = integration surface, 0 k = turbulent kinetic energy Lg = Gaussian correlation length l = span length Mi = Mach number of g D0 Moi = observer Mach number vector Mref = reference Mach number M1 = ine ow Mach number
