Abstract

THE three principal sources of airplane noise are the engine, the propeller, and air turbulence. Because of the impossibility of generating each kind of noise separately from the others, it has been necessary to develop what are in effect means for separating them and studying each one independently as they vary with speed of ship, speed of engine, and horsepower. In brief, the method that was used employs a series of tests under various flight conditions, the resulting data making it possible to solve a set of simultaneous equations. The paper gives numerous curves showing the variation with engine speed of the noise from these three sources.
