First Article Test Noise Survey of the A/F32T-9 Large Turbo Fan Engine Enclosed Noise Suppressor System, Sky Harbor IAP (International Airport), Phoenix, Arizona.

Abstract

The A/F32T-9 Large Turbofan Engine, Enclosed Noise Suppressor System (T-9 NSS) at Sky Harbor International Airport, Phoenix AZ was surveyed to determine noise levels at 100 meters. With an F101 engine operating at afterburner power the highest measured Overall Sound Level, A-Weighted (OASLA) was 88.7 dB(A). The measured OASLA values exceeded the 77 dB(A) criterion at all but five of the twenty-four sampling positions. Keywords: International airports, Arizona; Turbofan engine test cells; Jet engine noise suppressors.
