Abstract

The effect of finite span on the jet-surface interaction noise source and the jet mixing noise shielding and reflection effects is considered using recently acquired experimental data. First, the experimental setup and resulting data are presented with particular attention to the role of surface span on far-field noise. These effects are then included in existing empirical models that have previously assumed that all surfaces are semi-infinite. This extended abstract briefly describes the experimental setup and data leaving the empirical modeling aspects for the final paper.

An Overview of Recent NASA Airborne Science Projects in the Arctic Using Manned and Unmanned Aircraft

As NASA prepares to launch ICESAT-II there are significant efforts underway to plan for aircraft under-flights to calibrate the onboard lasers and to validate data products. This presentation will begin with an overview of recent airborne science missions including Operation Ice Bridge that have focused observations on the arctic. This will be followed by results from recent NASA sponsored unmanned aircraft missions and a discussion how these new observing technologies can contribute to future research in the Arctic. Information on recent icing wind tunnel testing and comparisons with icing prediction models will also be shared leading to discussions on specific challenges in adapting systems to harsh arctic conditions.

Further Examinations of Bimodal SLD Ice Accretion in the NASA Icing Research Tunnel

An ice shape database has been created to document ice accretions on a 72-inch chord NACA 23012 airfoil model resulting from an exposure to a Supercooled Large Drop (SLD) icing cloud with a bimodal drop size distribution. The ice shapes created were documented with photographs, laser scanned surface measurements over a section of the model span, and measurement of the ice mass over the same section of each accretion. The icing conditions used in the test matrix were based upon previously measured ice shapes on the same model to connect the current database to previously measured information. Ice shapes resulting from the bimodal distribution as well as from equivalent mono-modal drop size distributions were obtained and compared. Results indicate that the ice shapes resulting from the bimodal drop size distributions had higher mass and volume values than their mono-modal distribution equivalents as well as having icing limits that extended further back on the chord of the model.
