| Description | Until recently, the design of jet engines for quiet operation was limited by engineers' ability to predict the jet noise generated by a nozzle exhaust system. More importantly, the 'intermediate steps' between nozzle design and noise had not been understood, limiting the design process to small variations around existing solutions. In recent years NASA's Quiet Aircraft Technology (QAT) Program has advanced the understanding and modeling of jet noise to give engineers the tools they need to design quiet nozzle systems for subsonic exhaust systems. The presentation discusses the approach followed for QAT and argues that a similar effort aimed at supersonic jet exhaust systems will be needed to allow designs of quiet military aircraft in the future. |
