| Description | Analysis of noise measurements taken during tests of a remote lift fan wing installation, a V/STOL model transport with both lift and lift/cruise fans, and XV5B research aircraft flight tests has indicated a definite increase in pure tone sound pressure level due to crossflow over the face of the life fans. The fan-in-wing and V/STOL model transport tests were conducted in the NASA Ames 40 ft. by 80 ft. wing tunnel and the XV5B flight tests at Moffett Field. Increases up to 10 db were observed for the lift fan installation tested at crossflow to fan tip velocity ratios up to 0.25. Cruise fan noise levels were found to be unaffected by the external flow. The noise level increase was shown to be related to an increase in fan distortion levels. |
