In this paper, the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic characteristics that vary depending on the rotation axial distance between the upper and lower rotor, which is one of the design parameters of the coaxial rotor, is analyzed in the hovering condition using the computational fluid dynamics. Aerodynamic analysis using the Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes equation and the aeroacoustic analysis using the Ffowcs Williams ans Hawkings equation is performed and the results were compared. The upper and lower rotor of the coaxial rotor have different phase angle which changes periodically by rotation and have unsteady characteristics. As the distance between the upper and lower rotors increased, the aerodynamic efficiency of the thrust and the torque was increased as the flow interaction decreased. In the aeroacoustic viewpoint, the noise characteristics radiated in the direction of the rotational plane showed little effect by axis spacing. In the vertical downward direction of the axis increased, the SPL maintains its size as the frequency increases, which affects the increase in the OASPL. As the axial distance of the coaxial rotor increased, the noise characteristics of a coaxial rotor were similar with the single rotor and the SPL decreased significantly.

In this paper, aerodynamic noise simulation was conducted using DES (Detached Eddy Simulation) and FW-H (Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings) acoustic analogy for the tandem cylinders which have configuration similar to a landing gear of airplanes. Numerical simulation for the tandem cylinders whose centers are 3.7D apart was carried out and results were compared with the measured data such as flow characteristics, pressure coefficients on the cylinder surfaces and far-field noise characteristics. It was confirmed that periodically shedded vortices released at the upstream cylinder and impinged on the downstream cylinder surface are major sources of aerodynamic noise. After verifying the computational method of using DES and FW-H acoustic analogy for predicting aerodynamic noise of tandem cylinders, additional simulation was conducted to examine the effect of attaching a splitter plate at the rear of the upstream cylinder. It was confirmed that the noise level in specific frequency band decreased significantly because the splitter plate changed the vortex shedding features and reduced dipole noise source.

진공청소기에서 발생하는 주 소음원은 홴(fan)에 의한 공력 소음및 모터의 진동에 기인하는 청소기 본체의 소음과 청소기 흡입 노즐(nozzle)에서 발생하는 공력 소음으로 나눌수 있다. 청소기 본체의 주 소음원인 원심 홴(centrifugal fan)은 고속으로 회전하며 구조가 복잡함으로 인해 소음 해석에 필수적인 유동의 해석이 어려우나 이산 와류법을 이용한 소음원 해석등의 연구가 진행중이다. 진공청소기 노즐부에서는 일반적인 분류(jet)의 토출과는 상이하게 공기를 흡입하는 구조로 소음 발생 기구의 모델링 (modeling)에 대한 연구는 거의 전무하다. 공력 소음은 Lighthill에 의하면 비정상 유체가 운동할 때 나타나는 변형에 기인한다고 하며 주변에 고정 경계면이 없는 상태에서 유체가 흐를 때 발생하는 소음을 이론적으로 연구하였다. 그후 Curle에 의해서 고체 벽면의 영향을 고려한 방정식의 해가 구해졌다.

풍력터빈 블레이드에서 발생하는 공력소음원의 위치 특성을 파악하기 위해 마이크로폰 어레이를 사용하여 소음원 풍동시험을 수행하였다. 풍동시험은 KARI 중형 아음속풍동에서 수행되었으며, 소음원의 위치파악을 위해 시간영역 회전체 빔포밍기법을 사용하였다. 기존 시간영역 회전체 빔포밍 기법의 경우 시험데이터 해석에 많은 시간이 소요되나, 본 논문에서는 원통형 좌표계에서 회전각 격자간격과 해석기간 간격 사이의 상관조건을 도입하여 데이터 해석시간을 기존 방법 대비 1/5로 단축하였다. 시험결과 나타난 주파수에 따른 블레이드 공력소음원의 위치 특성은 2kHz 이하 대역에서는 블레이드 반경 80% 부근에 주소음원이 위치하며, 4kHz 이상 대역에서는 블레이드 끝단 부근에 주 소음원이 위치하고 있다.

본 논문에서는 판토그라프의 공력소음 발생 특성을 규명하기 위하여 단순 모델을 이용하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. 단순 모델은 실제 팬헤드의 사이즈를 고려하여 선정하였고, 이를 통해 음압 해석 알고리즘을 구축하고 소음 발생 메커니즘을 분석하였다. 단순 모델을 선정하여 이를 Lattice Boltzmann Method 를 기반으로 한 전산 유체 해석을 통한 결과를 이용하여 음압 레벨과 음압의 방사형태를 계산하고, 풍동 실험을 통해 이를 검증한다. 풍동 실험에서는 단순 모델을 제작하여 100 km/h 의 속도 환경에서 항력, 양력과 소음을 측정하였다. 단면의 형상에 따른 변화 추이를 검토하였으며 해석결과를 단일 수치로도 정량화하여 제시한다. 최종적으로 정립된 알고리즘을 기반으로 팬헤드의 3 차원 모델을 시뮬레이션 한 결과를 제시한다.

Helicopter noise prediction is an essential process for developing low noise helicopter technology. In this paper, the noise prediction method is developed using the helicopter integrated performance analysis program CAMRAD-II and in-house noise analysis code. In addition, the analytical technique was verified by analyzing blade-vortex interaction noise, which is the biggest cause of helicopter noise. In order to predict the actual helicopter noise, the noise analysis was performed for the flyover and approach condition, which is the standard measurement condition of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Finally, we confirmed the suitability of the analytical method through comparison and analysis with the flight test results.

This study presents a result on aero-acoustic characteristics of pantograph panheads. To analyze the fluid flow around the panhead and resulting sound radiation, simple models of panhead were used in the numerical simulations called Lattice-Boltzmann method. The simulation results were verified using the wind tunnel test. The main aerodynamic noise was generated from the vortex shedding which is characterized by the Strouhal number, flow speed and geometry. The reduction in the radiated noise with simultaneously achieving increased lifting force was implemented for the simple rectangular geometry used in this study. Also, it was shown that the radiated sound power was significantly reduced by minimizing vortex shedding using through-holes or streamline shapes.

The helicopter development technology is improved by the increasing of computing power and advanced test facilities. The increasing efficiency of fuel consuming by the developing of improved lift-to-drag rotor system is the major issue, the noise reduction for ecology(civil area) and increase of survivability to reduce noise detection(battlefield) also are important.
