Abstract
With the objective to improve the understanding of the dominant fan noise source mechanisms, a comprehensive experimental study was conducted at a low speed fan test rig. The aerodynamic fan map as well as the acoustic characteristics of the fan was measured for a new blade integrated disk (Blisk) rotor with systematic variation of the shaft speed and throttling. The interpretation of the results is supported by simulations of the experiment with a physics-based analytical in-house tool for fan noise prediction. For the acoustic measurements, an array of wall-flushed microphones was used in the inlet section. By means of radial mode analysis techniques, the broadband and tonal sound powers are calculated for each operating point. In the obtained comprehensive database, systematic variations of the tonal and broadband sound power with the flow rate are found. These patterns can only partly be correlated to the varying incidence angle of the rotor blades. Comparing the mode distributions of the measured noise and the analytical models then allows conclusions on the predominant noise sources of rotor–stator interaction and inflow-rotor interaction.
