Sound transmission through the walls of light aircraft: An investigation of structure-borne noise in a Handley Page 137 Jetstream 3 aircraft

摘要

This study indicates that the structureborne noise due to wing/vortex interation for the Handley Page-137 Jetstream may be significant at frequencies above 500 Hz. It was found that by preventing such interaction, noise reductions between 1 to 3 dB were attainable. However, this study did not show any significant contribution due to this phenomena at the first blade passage tone. It is suspected that the wing/vortex interaction effect varies from plane to plane.
