Abstract
The primary source of noise from supersonic jets is turbulent mixing noise. Tam et al. [AIAA Paper 96-1716 (1996)] proposed similarity spectra for a two-source model of turbulent mixing noise corresponding to noise from omnidirectional fine-scale turbulence structures and directional large-scale turbulent structures. These empirical similarity spectra have been compared with reasonable success to the spectra of both military and laboratory-scale jets. Most application have looked at the variation in angle: fine-scale similarity spectra matches sideline of the jet nozzle, large-scale in the maximum radiation lobe, and a combination needed in between. A similarity spectra decomposition of from an ideally expanded, Mach 1.8 laboratory-scale jet allows for a spatial comparison between the near and far-field spectra. The sound from the convergent-divergent nozzle was collected at the Hypersonic and High-Enthalpy Wind Tunnel at Kashiwa Campus of the University of Tokyo at a variety of near, mid, and far field locations. Comparison of similarity spectra decompositions over distance yield insights into the sound propagation from this supersonic jet. In addition, results from a preliminary wavenumber eduction technique to build a wavepacket-based equivalent source model of the large-scale turbulent mixing noise.
