Predicting aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performance is crucial when designing a new aircraft configuration. Predicting aeroacoustics helps engineers design quieter products, improve their performance, ensure compliance with regulations, and enhance user safety and comfort. Computational Aeroacoustics (CAA) extends CFD by integrating fluid flow simulations with acoustic wave propagation models. 

While CFD provides valuable predictions, wind tunnel testing remains essential to validate these predictions. However, wind tunnel tests have a significant drawback: they are costly. Therefore, engineers must optimise the data collection process to extract maximum information from each test.

Computational Aeroacoustics (CAA) enables comprehensive analysis of noise sources and their impact on a better product.

This webinar will focus on rotary-wing applications and how accurately capturing turbulent flow impacts the precision of aeroacoustic simulations.

Through meticulous analysis and advanced numerical simulations using Flow360, engineers can decode the complex interactions between fluid motion and sound waves. This enables precise noise level predictions for various rotary-wing applications.
