This paper reviews the state of the art of engine noise source evaluation using microphone arrays and identifies issues that are currently not well understood. It is found that most methods currently assume a model of uncorrelated point sources. However it will be shown that this is not a necessary assumption and images of the complete source CSD can be obtained, but that the effect of source convection cannot be readily obtained from the source image. It is also shown how source images can be improved by frequency averaging across the far field CSD matrix. This approaches reduces aliasing and improves the source image especially at high frequencies.

Abstract

This paper reviews the state of the art of engine noise source evaluation using microphone arrays and identifies issues that are currently not well understood. It is found that most methods currently assume a model of uncorrelated point sources. However it will be shown that this is not a necessary assumption and images of the complete source CSD can be obtained, but that the effect of source convection cannot be readily obtained from the source image. It is also shown how source images can be improved by frequency averaging across the far field CSD matrix. This approaches reduces aliasing and improves the source image especially at high frequencies.
