Passive control for suppressing mixing noise from Co-Flowing Jets (CFJ) is presented in this study. The idea behind this is to reduce the convective Mach number of turbulent eddies that produce intense sound radiation. The present study analyses co-flowing jets with a bypass ratio of 6.3 and the primary nozzle lip thickness of 10 mm. The aim of the study is to find the jet noise level in finite lip thickness in co-flowing jets. CFJ with finite lip thickness forms a recirculation zone (in the near field). The secondary core and recirculation zone are shielding the primary core by reducing the jet noise. A single free jet with a diameter equal to that of a primary nozzle of co-flowing jet is also studied for comparison. The results show that co-flow jet with finite lip thickness of 10mm for various emission angles and the Overall Sound Pressure Level (OASPL) level gets reduced when compared with the single free jet.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
