Abstract

Far-field noise measurements from model tests of a shielding-flap-type jet noise suppressor are presented in the form of radiation patterns and frequency spectra. The tests were conducted using a cold air jet issuing from the nozzle in such a manner as to attach to and flow along the surface of a shielding flap. Whereas other proposed noise suppressors provide generally symmetrical noise radiation patterns, the present device skews the pattern in a beneficial way such that large noise reductions are obtained in the downward direction. These large noise reductions are thought to result from both the acoustic shielding of the flap and the benefits of flow attachment.
