Abstract

This paper describes near field/far field correlations for supersonic jet noise with the use of both numerical simulations and experimental measurements. Examples are provided of correlations between the output from an Optical Deflectomter (OD) and far field microphone measurements. Numerical simulations using a modified Detached Eddy Simulation are performed for nozzle geometries typical of high performance military aircraft. Correlations are performed between the simulated flow field fluctuations and the predicted far field acoustic pressure. Comparisons are made between the simulations and experiments. The relationship between the output of the OD and the flow field fluctuations is discussed based on the numerical simulations. The results demonstrate the potential advantages of the complementary use of both unsteady flow measurements and simulations in understanding the noise generation mechanisms in high speed jets.
