Investigations on noise sources on a contra-rotating axial fan with different modifications [PDF]
An Acoustic Camera was applied to examine modifications of fan blade designs regarding their noise emissions. A so-called rotational beamforming algorithm allows for the detection of sound sources on the rotating blades by using a virtual rotation of the
