This dataset supports the publication: 
Jacob Turner and Jae-Wook Kim
Trailing-edge noise generation from a flat-plate aerofoil interacting with a prescribed vortex
Journal of Sound and Vibration

This dataset contains:
The ACSII (.dat) files and binary Tecplot (.plt) data files that were used to generate the figures in the paper.
The Tecplot layout (.lay) files which can be used to visualise the plots.
The graphic software Tecplot 360 EX can be downloaded for free (fixed-period trial version) from:
http://www.tecplot.com/my/free-trial-software/tecplot-360/

The title of the files corresponds to the figure numbers in the paper.
