Acoustic sources within the "jet pipe" also contribute to the noise, mainly at lower speeds, which include combustion noise, and sounds produced by interactions of a turbulent stream with fans, compressors, and turbine systems. [1] The jet mixing sound is created by the turbulent mixing of a jet with the ambient fluid, in most cases, air.

Rolls-Royce Conway Mk508 (1959) with hush kit attached. The most common form of hush kit is a multi-lobe exhaust mixer.This device is fitted to the rear of the engine and mixes the jet core's exhaust gases with the surrounding air and a small amount of available bypass air.
Aeroacoustics is a branch of acoustics that studies noise generation via either turbulent fluid motion or aerodynamic forces interacting with surfaces. Noise generation can also be associated with periodically varying flows. A notable example of this phenomenon is the Aeolian tones produced by wind blowing over fixed objects.
The exhaust thrust from a jet engine is equal to exhaust mass flow times exhaust velocity, i.e., Thrust = ṁv, while the energy to make that thrust is given by Energy = 1/2mv 2. A mixer helps reduce the fastest exhaust velocities from the core of the engine, while making the average exhaust velocity faster, producing more thrust with the same ...
Noise-generating aircraft propeller. Aircraft noise is noise pollution produced by an aircraft or its components, whether on the ground while parked such as auxiliary power units, while taxiing, on run-up from propeller and jet exhaust, during takeoff, underneath and lateral to departure and arrival paths, over-flying while en route, or during landing.
[1] [2] This is used to calculate the total acoustic power of the jet noise. The law reads as =, where is the acoustic power in the far-field, is the proportionality constant (or Lighthill's constant),
Pratt & Whitney stated the A220's and Embraer E2's PW1500G/PW1900Gs are free from the issue and that less than 2% of PW1100Gs are affected while 182 GTF-powered A320/A321neos have been delivered. [74] In 2018 some engines were reported as emitting "a strange howling noise" as heard by people below the aircraft as it made its landing approach.
