Analytical study of twin-jet shielding

Abstract

Development of jet noise source model, and comparison to experiments with a point noise source are summarized. The refinement of the noise source is expected to resolve discrepancies noted between previous analytical results with a point noise source model and experimental results for twin-jet shielding. Comparison of the analytical model with experimental program which include shielding of a point noise source by a jet and twin jet shielding are also made. The comparisons should serve to define more completely the mechanisms of shielding
