Abstract
Active noise control is studied as a solution to reduce the blade passing frequency tonal noise of turbofans during landing and takeoff. A promising alternative to loudspeakers used as secondary sources is the Harmonic Acoustic Pneumatic Source (HAPS), that has been designed to generate a high harmonic noise level controllable in amplitude and phase using slow time varying signals. The objective is to design, characterize and optimize an active control system capable of following a time varying primary noise. A configuration with a loudspeaker acting as a primary source, a HAPS mounted laterally on a rectangular duct and an error microphone is considered. A first single-input-single-output controller for the case of plane wave control has been tested and allowed a convergence time of about 2 seconds to reach 20 dB attenuation of the acoustic pressure at 440 Hz. The results are consistent with simulations of the system and the convergence time can be explained by the dynamics of the HAPS. This study is a first step towards the objective of performing multimodal active noise control in duct with multiple sources in presence of flow.
