Predicted and Measured Modal Sound Power Levels for a Fan Ingesting Distorted Inflow [PDF]

open access: yes
Refinements have been made to a method for estimating the modal sound power levels of a ducted fan ingesting distorted inflow. By assuming that each propagating circumferential mode consists only of a single radial mode (the one with the highest cut-off ...

Variable geometry aft-fan for takeoff quieting or thrust augmentation of a turbojet engine [PDF]

open access: yes
A concept is presented that combines the low-noise and high-thrust characteristics of a turbofan at takeoff, together with its high efficiency at subsonic flight speeds, with the high efficiency of a turbojet at supersonic cruise.
