17、NS By Alan H. Marsh, R. L. Frasca, D. K. Gordon, C. A. Henry, G. L. Laurie, and L. T. Kamei SUMMARY In May 1967, the NASA initiated a program with the McDonnell Douglas Corporation to investigate turbofan-engine nacelle modifications designed to reduce fan-compressor noise from the JT3D engines on D

18、C-8-50/61 aircraft. The program was directed at the definition of nacelle modifications that could reduce the landing-approach flyover perceived noise level by 7 to 10 PNdB with no increase in takeoff noise level. The program was conducted in five phases: (1) nacelle design studies and duct lining i

19、nvestigations, (2) ground static tests of noise-suppressor configurations, (3) flyover noise and cruise performance tests, (4) studies of the economic implications of retrofit, and (5) an evaluation of human response to the flyover noise of the modified nacelles. This document reports the results of

20、 the investigations of the first phase and the resultant selection of the articles tested in the succeeding ground static test phase of the program. Eight inlet-duct and the two fan-exhaust-duct designs were studied and evaluated. Two inlet-duct designs and one fan-exhaust-duct design were selected

21、for ground static testing. One of the selected inlet designs incorporated acoustically absorptive linings on the walls of a revised inlet duct, two concentric ring vanes, and a lengthened centerbody. The other design had treatment on the walls of a lengthened inlet duct, one concentric ring vane, an

22、d an enlarged lightbulb-shaped centerbody. The selected fan-exhaust duct design provided acoustical linings in an exhaust duct 24 inches longer than the existing ducts, thus requiring a new fan thrust reverser but preserving the existing primary thrust reverser. An alternate nacelle modification des

23、ign using a variable-area primary nozzle to reduce the rotational speed of the fan stages during landing was also studied and recommended for ground static testing. The duct-lining investigations included acoustical and structural studies. The acoustical studies consisted of: flow resistance; acoust

24、ic absorption and impedance; duct transmission-loss; and sonic-fatigue tests. The structural studies consisted of: determination of structural design criteria for duct linings; structural tests of bonded honeycomb sandwich structures; and development of fabrication procedures for duct linings. The r

25、esult of these acoustical and structural studies was the selection of the materials and fabrication processes used in constructing the test articles for the ground static tests. n Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-INTRODUCTION The total

26、 human annoyance from operations of commercial jet transports has increased simultaneously with the growth of the air transportation industry and the number of people living in communities around airports. This increased annoyance has stimulated efforts to find means to alleviate the problem through

27、 reducing the level of the noise radiated from the aircraft, modifying aircraft operational procedures, and achieving compatible usage of the land around airports. The alleviation efforts have been conducted as part of a coordinated industry-government research program. In 1965, the NASA extended it

28、s research programs to supplement those of industry in the development of practical nacelle modification concepts for reducing fancompressor noise (ref. 1 ). In May 1967, the Langley Research Center of the NASA contracted with the McDonnell Douglas Corporation and The Boeing Company to investigate n

This Part I1 of the report consists of three major sections: nacelle modification design studies, duct-lining acoustical investigations, and duct-lining structural investigations. The first section presents the goals and constrain

The second and third sections present the results of the acoustical and structural studies conducted to select the duct-lining design and the fabrication processes used in constructing the static-test inlet and fanexhaust ducts. Flexural-fatigue tests of samples of fibermetal

34、 sheets were conducted at the NASAs Langley Research Center.

The inlet has a fixed geometry a

45、nd has been designed with a relatively thick internal lip to provide the engine with airflow having high total pressure recovery at all engine operating conditions including takeoff. As a result, there is considerable volume between the inlet duct surface and the exterior nose-cowl surface. This are

46、a was utilized for the installation of engine-oil and pneumatic-system heat exchangers, the inlet-duct ice-protection system, and related piping, valves and ducting. The auxiliary inlet directly beneath the inlet lower lip admits cooling air to the oil and pneumatic-system heat exchangers. Each fan-

47、exhaust duct, figure 1 (b), has an average radial duct cross-dimension of approximately 6.5 inches and a length of 24 inches. Four full-length flow splitters in each duct divide the duct into five separate flow channels. The thrust reverser for the fan exhaust directs the engine airflow through a ca

48、scade to provide reverse thrust at relatively high reversing efficiency. The hot primary engine airflow is exhausted through a nozzle at the rear of the engine. The reverser for the primary exhaust flow is also a cascade reverser similar to the reverser for the fan air. The cascade cover sleeve is t

49、ranslated aft to expose the cascade when the reverser is operated. The noisiness of JT3D-powered aircraft is dominated by the discrete high-frequency tones radiating from the fan-exhaust and inlet ducts and by the lower-frequency broadband noise radiated from the primary jet exhaust. The discrete tones have frequencies equal to the
