Numerical Simulation of Jet Mixing Noise Associated with Engine Exhausts

  • Chapter
Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Flows and Noise Generation

Abstract

In this article the work conducted at ISTA and LMFA during the French/German research project Noise Generation in Turbulent Flows is presented. The hybrid approach applied for the noise prediction at ISTA consists of a flow simulation which is coupled to the acoustic analogy of Ffowcs-Williams& Hawkings including predictions based on volume sources. The turbulence modelling approach used in the flow simulations is the Detached-Eddy Simulation as well as the Large- Eddy Simulation. Along with details on the numerical method and the turbulence modelling approach, results from compressible, three-dimensional flow simulations and their acoustic predictions are presented for the rod-airfoil configuration which acts as a simple broadband noise emitter. Additionally, results for a single-stream jet and for a coplanar, coaxial, unheated jet flow are presented. The results of the Detached-Eddy Simulation of the latter case are compared with those of a Large- Eddy Simulation of the same configuration.
