Modeling of Over-Tip-Rotor Liners for the Suppression of Fan Noise
AIAA Journal(2022)
Abstract
Fan noise is one of the dominant sources of aircraft engine noise, both at approach and at takeoff. Improved attenuation of fan noise with acoustic liners and the reduction of fan noise at the source remain key technology challenges for civil aviation in the foreseeable future. Over-tip-rotor (OTR) acoustic treatments have been investigated experimentally during the last decade, and significant fan noise reductions have been measured, most recently using a single rotor and multiple lined circumferential grooves. This paper describes an analytical OTR prediction model in which the fan noise is modeled with point or distributed, static or rotating monopole and dipole sources based on Green's functions for infinite hard or lined cylindrical ducts containing uniform mean flow; these are combined with an anechoic or unflanged inlet termination and an embedded finite length lined section in which the rotor-alone source is located with its OTR liner. OTR liner insertion loss predictions are obtained for comparison with data from the W-8 NASA experimental rig. These yield peak broadband in-duct noise reductions of up to 4 dB, in line with the measurements.
