| Description | Recent acoustic data show larger noise attenuations than predicted for acoustically treated aircraft engine inlets without splitter rings. A theoretical study of the acoustic propagation of spinning modes in acoustically treated open circular ducts is presented, and a suppressor with splitter rings was modeled by using the rectangular approximation to the annular duct. Theoretical models were used to determine optimum impedance and maximum attenuation for several spinning lobe numbers from 0 to 50. Results of the analysis indicate that for circular ducts the maximum possible attenuation and the optimum wall impedance are strong functions of the lobe number, and for annular ducts the attenuation and optimum wall impedance are insensitive to the spinning lobe number for well cut-on modes. These results explain why suppressors with splitter rings were quite effective in spite of the lack of detailed information on the noise source modal structure. Conversely, effective use of outer wall treatment alone will require expanded knowledge of the noise source structure. Approximate solutions are presented to help interpret the more exact theoretical results. |
