内容記述 | A high speed advanced counterrotation propeller, was tested in the NASA-Lewis 9 x 15 foot Anechoic Wind Tunnel at simulated takeoff/approach conditions of 0.2 Mach number. Acoustic measurements were taken with fixed floor microphones, an axially translating microphone probe, and with a polar microphone probe which was fixed to the propeller nacelle and could take both sideline and circumferential acoustic surveys. Aerodynamic measurements were also made to establish the propeller operating conditions. The propeller was run over a range of blade setting angles from 36.4/36.5 to 41.1/39.4 deg, tip speeds from 165 to 259 m/sec, rotor spacings from 1.56 to 3.63 based on forward rotor tip chord to aerodynamic separation, and angles of attack to + or - 16 deg. First order rotor alone tones showed highest directivity levels near the propeller plane, while interaction tone showed high levels throughout sideline directivity, especially toward the propeller rotation axis. Interaction tone levels were sensitive to propeller row spacing while rotor alone tones showed little spacing effect. There is a decreased noise level associated with higher propeller blade numbers for the same overall propeller thrust. |
