This report describes a theoretical design and analysis study of the benefits of vane sweep and lean for reducing rotor- stator interaction tone noise. It is shown that the kinematic relationship between the rotor wakes and stator vanes is the principal factor in determining the achievable noise reductions. Vane sweep and lean control rotor wake skewing as seen by the stator vanes and hence influence the number of wake intersections per vane. An increase in the number of intersections reduces noise levels. Hence, to reduce rotor-stator noise, van sweep and lean must be chosen in such a way as to increase wake intersections per vane. A simple design rule is thus proposed which requires a sweep configuration that puts the vane tip downstream of its root and a vane lean that is in the direction of the rotor rotation. A detailed comparison of the predicted and measured noise reductions for a swept and leaned stator is then carried out. Overall, these comparisons show that the predicted benefits of a swept and leaned stator are in good agreement, qualitative as well as quantitative, with the measured reductions for the fan speeds relevant to noise certification procedure. Furthermore, the results also demonstrate the validity of design criterion and the theoretical tools used in this study. Envia, Edmane and Nallasamy, M.

Fundamentals of Aeroacoustics with Applications to Aeropropulsion Systems from the Shanghai Jiao Tong University Press Aerospace series, is the go-to reference on the topic, providing a modern take on the fundamental theory and applications relating to prediction and control of all major noise sources in aeropropulsion systems. This important reference compiles the latest knowledge and research advances, considering both the physics of aerodynamic noise generation in aero-engines and related numerical prediction techniques. Additionally, it introduces new vortex sound interaction models, a transfer element method, and a combustion instability model developed by the authors. Focusing on propulsion systems from inlet to exit, including combustion noise, this new resource will aid graduate students, researchers, and R&D engineers in solving the aircraft noise problems that currently challenge the industry. Updates the knowledge-base on the sound source generated by aeropropulsion systems, from inlet to exit, including combustion noise Covers new aerodynamic noise control technology aimed at the low-noise design of next generation aero-engines, including topics such as aerodynamic noise and aero-engine noise control Includes new, cutting-edge models and methods developed by an author team led by the editor-in-chief of the Chinese Journal of Aeronautics and Astronautics Considers both the physics of aerodynamic noise generation in aero-engines and related numerical prediction techniques

Two of the most acclaimed reference works in the area of acoustics in recent years have been our Encyclopedia of Acoustics, 4 Volume set and the Handbook of Acoustics spin-off. These works, edited by Malcolm Crocker, positioned Wiley as a major player in the acoustics reference market. With our recently published revision of Beranek & Ver's Noise and Vibration Control Engineering, Wiley is a highly respected name in the acoustics business. Crocker's new handbook covers an area of great importance to engineers and designers. Noise and vibration control is one largest areas of application of the acoustics topics covered in the successful encyclopedia and handbook. It is also an area that has been under-published in recent years. Crocker has positioned this reference to cover the gamut of topics while focusing more on the applications to industrial needs. In this way the book will become the best single source of need-to-know information for the professional markets.
