In order to meet noise specifications for future foreseen aircraft propulsion systems, such as for ultrahigh bypass ratio turbofans and contra-rotating open rotors, the dominant turbomachinery noise mechanisms need to be modeled accurately at an early design stage. Two novel methods are presented here, which could significantly improve the existing analytical noise models. For the high-solidity ultrahigh bypass ratio, a mode-matching technique based on a modal expansion of acoustic and vortical variables in each subdomain of a blade row is shown to accurately reproduce sound generation and propagation in two-dimensional bifurcated channels and in three-dimensional annular unstaggered flat-plate cascades. For the low solidity contra-rotating open rotors, several extensions to Amiet's compressible isolated airfoil theory are coupled with Curle's and Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings' acoustic analogy in the frequency domain within a strip theory framework, to yield both far-field tonal and broadband noise. Including sweep in both tonal and broadband noise models is shown to significantly improve the comparison with experiments on a stationary swept airfoil in a uniform turbulent stream and on a realistic contrarotating open rotor geometry at approach conditions.
