Supersonic jet issuing from a nozzle invariably cause high-frequency noises. These consist of three principal components ; the turbulent mixing noise, the broadband shock-associated noise, and the screech tone. In present study, it was experimentally investigated to the effect of nozzle lip thickness on the characteristics of supersonic jet noise. The convergent-divergent nozzle of a design Mach number 2.0 was used in experiment. With three different nozzle-lip thicknesses, the jet pressure ratio was varied in the range between 2.0 and 12.0. Acoustic measurements were conducted by microphones in an anechoic room, and the major structures of the supersonic jets were visualized by a Schlieren optical system to investigate the effect of nozzle lip thickness. The measured results show that the characteristics of supersonic jet noise, such as overall sound pressure level (OASPL) and screech frequency, strongly depend upon the thickness of nozzle-lip.

It is well known that screech tones of supersonic jet are generated by a feedback loop driven by the instability waves. Near the nozzle lip where the supersonic jet mixing layer is receptive to external excitation, acoustic disturbances impinging on this area excite the instability waves. This fact implies that the nozzle lip thickness can influence the screech tones of supersonic jet. The objective of the present study is to experimentally investigate the effect of nozzle-lip thickness on screech tones of supersonic jets issuing from a convergent-divergent nozzle. A baffle plate was installed at the nozzle exit to change the nozzle-lip thickness. Detailed acoustic measurement and flow visualization were made to specify the screech tones. The results obtained obviously show that nozzle-lip thickness significantly affects the screech tones of supersonic jet, strongly depending on whether the jet at the nozzle exit is over-expanded or under-expanded.

본 논문은 초음속 제트에서 발생하는 천음속 공명현상에 대한 실험적 연구를 기술한다. 초음속 노즐이 매우 낮은 압력비에서 작동될 때, 노즐내의 확대부에서 충격파가 발생한다. 천음속 공명현상은 이러한 충격파의 불안정한 진동에 의한 강한 음파의 발생에 기인한다. 제트 유동장은 쉴리렌 광학장치를 이용하여 가시화 하였다. 제트유동의 천음속 공명현상을 조사하기 위하여, 음향측정을 수행하였다. 천음속 공명 현상의 음향특성은 스크리치 톤과 비교하였다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과에 의하면, 스크리치 톤의 주파수와는 달리, 천음속 톤의 주파수는 노즐 압력비가 증가할수록 증가한다.

Various experimental data, including mixing areas, cross correlation factors, surface flow patterns on nozzle walls, and far field noise spectra, was used to draw a noise control mechanism in a supersonic jet. In the underexpanded case, mixing of the jet air with ambient air was significantly enhanced as presented before, and mixing noise was also dramatically reduced. Screech tones, in the overexpanded case, were effectively suppressed by trailing edge modifications, although mixing enhancement was not noticeable. From mixing and noise performance of nozzles with modified trailing edges, enhancing mixing through streamwise vortices seems an effective way to reduce mixing noise in the underexpanded flow regime. However, screech tones in the overespanded flow regime is well controlled or suppressed by making shock cells and/or spanwise large scale structures irregular and/or less organized by a proper selection of trailing edges. The noise field in the overexpanded flow regime was greatly affected by the symmetricity of the nozzle exit geometry. In the underexpanded flow regime, the effects of the symmetricity of the nozzle exit on mixing were negligible.

The effects of absorbing materials on the characteristics of supersonic jet noise were experimentally investigated using a convergent-divergent nozzle with a design Mach number of 2.0. Overall sound pressure levels (OASPL) and noise spectra were obtained at far-field locations. Schlieren optical system was used to visualize the flow-fields of supersonic jets. In order to investigate the effect of absorbing materials, baffle plates of different materials (metal, grass wool and polyurethane foam) were installed at the exit of the nozzle. Experiment was carried out over a wide range of nozzle pressure ratios from 2.0 and 18.0, which corresponds to over- and under-expanded conditions. The results obtained show that the screech tone amplitude and the overall sound pressure level reduce by using the baffle plates of absorbing materials, compared with the metal baffle plate. It is also found that the characteristics of supersonic jet noise are strongly dependent on the size of baffle plate.

Experiment of active noise control on supersonic jet noise was conducted by use of microjet injection. The microjets were injected to the shear layer of the main jet through 22 small holes at the lip of a rectangular nozzle. Based on the measurement of farfield sound pressure, it was found that the jet noise was effectively reduced by several dB(in some cases up to 10 dB). The power levels of all measurement points were also reduced by use of microjet injection. The microjet affected not only the broadband noise but also the screech tone noise. The sound pressure level, the frequency of the screech tone, and the structure of the jet could be changed by the microjet. Flow visualization with schlieren technique was also made to observe the effect of microjet on the flow field.

본 논문에서는 초음속 제트로부터 유발되는 소음의 특성을 실험적으로 분석하고, 기존의 소음예측식을 사용하여 비교해 봄으로서 예측식의 적용가능 범위를 살펴보았다. 실험을 위하여 제작된 초음속제트 발생장치의 출구마하수를 측정하기 위하여 정체실의 온도, 압력과 함께 피토 튜브를 이용하였고, 결과를 쉐도우 그래프 가시화 방법을 사용하여 얻은 결과와 비교하였다. 제트소음의 스펙트럼을 관찰한 결과, 불완전 팽창의 제트 유동에서 발생하는 충격파 관련 소음인 광대역 소음과 스크리치 톤 소음의 경향이 나타는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 아음속 조건에서는 큰 난류 구조에 의해 발생되는 난류 혼합 소음에 의하여 흐름방향으로 강한 방향성을 나타내었고, 초음속 조건에서는 충격파 관련 소음이 흐름의 상류 방향으로도 강하게 전파됨을 확인 하였다. 그리고 제트 엔진의 소음 예측 프로그램인 ARP876D 코드를 이용하여 실험에서 측정한 스펙트럼과 비교해 본 결과 아음속 영역에서보다는 초음속 영역에서 더 좋은 결과를 보였다.

본 논문에서는 노즐출구 단면에 설치된 메쉬 스크린을 이용하여 초음속 제트 소음 제어하기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 메쉬 스크린은 미소 직경을 가진 스테인레스 철사들로 만들어졌으며 철망 형태이다. 노즐 압력비는 과팽창에서 부족팽창된 초음속 제트를 얻기 위해 다양하게 변화시켰다. 초기 제트 전단층을 교란하기 위해, 메쉬 스크린의 중앙 부분에 구멍을 만들었으며 그 구멍크기는 메쉬 스크린의 소음 저감효과를 조사하기 위해 변화시켰다. 유동장을 가시화하기 위해 쉴리렌 광학 장치를 사용하였고 OASPL과 소음 스펙트럼을 얻기 위해 음향을 측정하였다. 본 실험으로부터 얻어진 결과는 메쉬 스크린이 스크리치 톤을 상당히 억제하였으며, 메쉬 스크린의 구멍크기는 초음속 제트 소음을 저감하는 중요한 인자였다. 과팽창된 제트인 경우, 소음 저감효과는 적정팽창과 부족팽창된 제트에서의 저감효과보다 매우 크게 나타났다.

The present study describes an experimental work to reduce supersonic jet noise using a control wire device that is placed into the supersonic jet stream. The jet pressure ratio is varied to obtain the supersonic jets which are operated in a wide range of over-expanded to moderately under-expanded conditions. The wire device is composed of long cylinders with a very small diameter. X-type wire device is applied to control the supersonic jet noise, and its location is varied to investigate the effect of the control wire device on supersonic jet noise. A high-quality Schlieren optical system is used to visualize the flow field of supersonic jet with and without the control wire device. Acoustic measurement is performed to obtain the overall sound pressure level and noise spectra. The results obtained show that the present wire device destroys the shock-cell structures, reduces the shock strength, and consequently leading to a substantial suppression of supersonic jet noise.
