The introduction of quiet short take-off and landing for civil aircraft operations in close proximity to the population poses important technological challenges. One critical aspect is the realization of extreme lift augmentation at low acoustic emissions. The aircraft concept selected to achieve this goal is a high-lift system equipped with an active flow-control non-slotted flap and a droop nose. For this specific configuration, trailing edge noise becomes a dominant noise source. Porous materials as a passive means for trailing-edge noise reduction are selected and characterized. Results of extensive experimental investigations in the acoustic wind tunnel Braunschweig are presented and discussed to point out the potential and limitations of the selected porous devices. Practical issues related to material manufacturing and integration into the wind tunnel model are addressed. The noise reduction potential of passive porous trailing-edge devices is found to strongly depend on both these aspects. Issues related to the characterization of the porous materials properties are described. Although porous materials are found to be successful at reducing trailing-edge noise emissions, the results indicate that there is still a need for more generic investigations to further clarify the parametric dependencies between noise reduction and material properties.
