Abstract

We have obtained a closed-form solution for the sound radiation from multipole sources imbedded in an infinite cylindrical jet with an arbitrary velocity profile. It is valid in the limit where the wavelength is large compared with the jet radius. Simple formulae for the acoustic pressure field due to convected point sources are also obtained. The results show (in a simple way) how the mean flow affects the radiation pattern from the sources. For convected lateral quadrupoles it causes the exponentnof the Doppler factor (1 -Mcosθ)−nmultiplying the far-field pressure signal to be increased from the value of 3 used by Lighthill to 5.
