Noticeable Reduction

The application of open-porous materials is a possible method to effectively reduce the aerodynamic noise of an airfoil. However, the porous consistency may have a negative effect on the aerodynamic performance of the airfoil, since very often the lift is decreased while the drag increases. In a recent investigation, the generation of trailing edge noise of a set of airfoil models made from different porous materials was examined experimentally. The materials were characterized mainly by their airflow resistivity. Besides the material, the chordwise extent of the porous material was varied, which was done by covering the front part of the porous airfoil with a thin, impermeable adhesive foil. Acoustic measurements were performed in an open jet wind tunnel using microphone array technology, while the aerodynamic performance was measured simultaneously using a six-component balance. In general, both the airflow resistivity and the extent of the porous material have an influence on the trailing edge noise. However, if a suitable material is chosen, the results show that a noticeable reduction of trailing edge noise is possible even with only a small chordwise extent of the porous material.

Trailing Edge Noise

This paper deals with the topic of upper surface blowing noise. Using a model-scale rectangular nozzle of an aspect ratio of 10 and a sharp trailing edge, detailed noise contours were acquired with and without a subsonic jet blowing over a flat surface to determine the noise source location as a function of frequency. Additionally, velocity scaling of the upper surface blowing noise was carried out. It was found that the upper surface blowing increases the noise significantly. This is a result of both the trailing edge noise and turbulence downstream of the trailing edge, referred to as wake noise in the paper. It was found that low-frequency noise with a peak Strouhal number of 0.02 originates from the trailing edge whereas the high-frequency noise with the peak in the vicinity of Strouhal number of 0.2 originates near the nozzle exit. Low frequency (low Strouhal number) follows a velocity scaling corresponding to a dipole source where as the high Strouhal numbers as quadrupole sources. The culmination of these two effects is a cardioid-shaped directivity pattern. On the shielded side, the most dominant noise sources were at the trailing edge and in the near wake. The trailing edge mounting geometry also created anomalous acoustic diffraction indicating that not only is the geometry of the edge itself important, but also all geometry near the trailing edge.
