Preliminary Aeroacoustic Measurements of In-Flow Reference Arrays and Sources at ARC

This presentation will review progress in recent testing of in-flow reference arrays and sources for aeroacoustic research testing at NASA aerodynamic centers. The sources were speakers and a multiple air jet source in an aerodynamic fairing, placed in the test section of the Army 7x10 untreated wind tunnel at ARC. The array used was an 8D, 24 element pattern in a similar aerodynamic fairing.

ARC Array Development Test Sweeping Jet Actuator Research

Plans and status of a wind tunnel test programs at ARC, GRC, and LaRC of a small reference acoustic array and references sources are reviewed. The GRC test in the jet nozzle rig is in progress, the ARC test will begin in the Army 7x10 ft. Wind tunnel this May, and the LaRC test will take place in the Quiet Flow Facility later this summer. These efforts will serve to validate the small acoustic array as a reference array sensor for accurate acoustic level measurement with suppression of background noise, and to compare the relative noise levels and recieved signal levels for different array installations
