Aerodynamic and Aeroacoustic Performance of Tail Rotor Investigation and Modification

open access: yes, 2021
With the increasingly stringent airworthiness standards, the noise generated during the rotorcraft flight is gradually attracting people’s attention. It widely operated helicopters at low altitudes because of their maneuverability. The way to reduce the noise caused by the complex airflow of the helicopter rotor system has progressively become a hot ...

Aeroacoustic investigation of deployed spoiler during steep approach landing

open access: yes, 2009
A steep approach landing procedure utilizes a steeper glide slope, greater than the conventional 3-deg glide angle, in order to alleviate noise on the ground. Spoilers are deployed to slow down the aircraft near to the airport perimeter.

Study on the effect of bionic flap based on owl wing contour on aerodynamic noise of airfoil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Renewable Energy Development
Modifying flap geometry to reduce trailing-edge turbulence is an effective approach to lower wind-turbine blade aerodynamic noise. Based on the NACA0018 airfoil, a new bionic serrated flap was designed by mimicking the owl wing structure.
