NOISE TECHNOLOGY FOR FUTURE AIRCRAFT POWER PLANTS

Applications range from growth versions of current production engines to future advanced supersonic transport applications. Although a variety of complex and challenging noise-suppression problems are identified, a sampling of several basic problems common to a variety of engine designs are discussed in detail. Among these are: the prediction of fan noise generation and propagation in treated ducts, the use of mixer nozzles to reduce jet exhaust noise, and the prediction and absorption of combustion noise.
