Computational aeroacoustic modelling using hybrid RANS/LES methods with modified acoustic analogies

This study considers a numerical approach to identifying noise mechanisms in tandem cylinders to understand aircraft landing gear as a primary contributor to airframe noise during approach and landing. Fluctuations in the flow properties induced by turbulence are computed as well as the correspondin...

description This study considers a numerical approach to identifying noise mechanisms in tandem cylinders to understand aircraft landing gear as a primary contributor to airframe noise during approach and landing. Fluctuations in the flow properties induced by turbulence are computed as well as the corresponding propagations. A hybrid IDDES turbulence model is employed, to compute the boundary layer and fluctuations in the flow properties. Larsson et al. modified Curle's analogy leading to the derivation of a version of Curle's analogy that makes use of strictly time derivatives which has been proven to be less sensitive to numerical errors. Brentner and Farassat derived a formulation of the Ffowcs-Williams and Hawkings analogy for a permeable surface enclosing the acoustic sources which accounts for the quadrupole acoustic sources in the flow without the costly calculation of a volume integral. This study will consider the impact of neglecting the volume sources through a comparison of the two modified versions of Curle's and FWH analogies with the results of other CFD practitioners as well as experimental data.
