Fan noise propagation within curved bypass ducts with 3D features

Fan noise propagation within curved bypass ducts with 3D features
Fan noise propagation within curved bypass ducts with 3D features
This paper focuses on aft radiated fan noise propagating through the bypass duct: the
effect of duct geometry on noise propagation is examined. The acoustic benefits of a novel
highly curved bypass geometry are compared with those of a typical modern turbofan
engine bypass geometry. Both 2D and 3D finite element models are used to examine the
effect of duct geometry and other features on noise propagation, including modal scattering
within the duct. An analytic radiation model is also used to examine the effect of these
features on sound directivity patterns in the far-field.

Abstract

This paper focuses on aft radiated fan noise propagating through the bypass duct: the
effect of duct geometry on noise propagation is examined. The acoustic benefits of a novel
highly curved bypass geometry are compared with those of a typical modern turbofan
engine bypass geometry. Both 2D and 3D finite element models are used to examine the
effect of duct geometry and other features on noise propagation, including modal scattering
within the duct. An analytic radiation model is also used to examine the effect of these
features on sound directivity patterns in the far-field.
