The Generation and Radiation of Supersonic Jet Noise. Volume 1. Summary

Abstract

This volume contains a summary of all the work accomplished in a detailed investigation of the noise characteristics of supersonic jet aircraft, as well as a summary of items in an exploratory program. There are three main sections. The first summarizes the problems with existing theories at the time the contract was initiated. The second outlines the criteria for a unified self-consistent theory of aerodynamic noise generation, and presents, a brief derivation of Lilley's equation which is the basis for the theoretical studies in jet noise generation and radiation. The third section summarizes the work accomplished.
