Aerospace, Vol. 10, Pages 625: Survey of Semi-Empirical Jet Noise Models for Preliminary Aircraft Engine Design
Scientific research studies on jet noise generation have been ongoing since the early 1950s, when turbojets were first used in commercial aircraft. Several numerical methods have been developed with the aim of reducing the environmental issues related to the impact of jet noise on community annoyance. Among them, the development of fast and comprehensive tools for jet noise prediction captured the attention of researchers and engineers, being very useful in the preliminary design phase of aircraft engines. This work deals with an extensive survey of James R. Stone’s models, initially formulated for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) by Modern Technologies Corporation (MTC), and their implementation in a contemporary numerical framework. The models and their implementation are validated by simulating different engine settings and nozzle configurations taken from the literature with the main scope of highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of the different semi-empirical formulations and setting guidelines for their effective use during the design phases of the next generation of supersonic aircraft.
