  2. Aeroacoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroacoustics

    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.

  3. Aircraft noise pollution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_noise_pollution

    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.

  4. Aerodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerodynamics

    Internal aerodynamics is the study of flow through passages in solid objects. For instance, internal aerodynamics encompasses the study of the airflow through a jet engine or through an air conditioning pipe. Aerodynamic problems can also be classified according to whether the flow speed is below, near or above the speed of sound.

  5. Jet noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_noise

    The primary sources of jet noise for a high-speed air jet (meaning when the exhaust velocity exceeds about 100 m/s; 360 km/h; 225 mph) are "jet mixing noise" and, for supersonic flow, shock associated noise. Acoustic sources within the "jet pipe" also contribute to the noise, mainly at lower speeds, which include combustion noise, and sounds ...

  7. Roadway noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roadway_noise

    Roadway noise is the collective sound energy emanating from motor vehicles. It consists chiefly of road surface, tire, engine/transmission, aerodynamic, and braking elements. Noise of rolling tires driving on pavement is found to be the biggest contributor of highway noise and increases with higher vehicle speeds. [1] [2] [3]

  8. Computational aeroacoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_aeroacoustics

    The origin of computational aeroacoustics can only very likely be dated back to the middle of the 1980s, with a publication of Hardin and Lamkin [1] who claimed, that "[...] the field of computational fluid mechanics has been advancing rapidly in the past few years and now offers the hope that "computational aeroacoustics," where noise is computed directly from a first principles determination ...

  9. Helicopter noise reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicopter_noise_reduction

    Loading noise is an aerodynamic adverse effect due to the acceleration of the force distribution on the air around the rotor blade due to the blade passing through it, and is directed primarily below the rotor. In general, loading noise can include numerous types of blade loading: some special sources of loading noise are identified separately.
