Abstract

The possibility of using noise barriers for helicopter noise mitigation is numerically investigated. The noise field produced by an isolated main rotor in the presence of a barrier on the ground is predicted by employing and appropriately modifying existing diffraction and reflection models. It is shown that noise barriers can provide substantial shielding from helicopter noise and conclusions are drawn regarding barrier configuration and helicopter operations.
