Propulsion Airframe Aeroacoustics (PAA)
• Definition: Aeroacoustic effects associated with the integration of the propulsion and airframe systems.
Includes: •
– Integration effects on inlet and exhaust systems
Flow interaction and acoustic propagation effects
Configurations from conventional to revolutionary
–
–
• PAA goal is to reduce interaction effects directly or use integration to reduce net radiated noise.
