Abstract
Although a great deal has been said and written in the past eight years or so about engine noise, previous discussion has been very largely concerned with the physical aspects of jet noise and with the possibility of suppressing it by means of special propelling nozzles and ground mufflers. There is however another, and in general a better, way of dealing with jet noise, namely by using engines of low specific thrust, i.e. of low exhaust velocity and one purpose of the paper is to examine the possibilities of such engines. This leads to a consideration of blade noise from fans and turbines for as jet noise is reduced this tends to become the dominant factor. But first of all it is necessary to re-examine the nature of the noise problem.
