Abstract
A continuous source motion model has been developed to represent a cruising aircraft traveling at high altitudes. The numerical implementation is based on the Lorentz transform (LT) and a Fast Field Program (FFP) formulation, which is used to compute the sound fields due to a monopole point source traversing in a horizontally stratified atmosphere parallel to a ground surface. To reduce the computational expenses, a one-dimensional LT-FFP is performed to obtain the pressure time-history for overhead flight conditions. The continuous source motion model is compared against a heuristic model which applies a Doppler shift to the stationary source sound field. A linear sound speed profile was selected to simplify the ray model implementation. A parametric study involving the source Mach number and source emission frequency has been performed in a variety of environmental conditions. The differences in the predicted maximum sound pressure levels between the two models can be as large as 9 dB under certain cond...
