A STUDY OF TURBOFAN-ENGINE COMPRESSOR-NOISE-SUPPRESSION TECHNIQUES

TURBOFAN ENGINES treatments applicable to operational jet transports have been studied. The treatments are intended to be used to suppress compressor noise, especially during the landing approach. Studies were limited to the P&WA JT3D turbofan engine series as installed on the Douglas DC-8 airplane; however, the principles developed are applicable to other installations as well.
