Abstract
An experimental study is conducted to determine the effect of chevrons with zero penetration angles at the CD nozzle exit on an emitted noise field. The implication of passive control is to reduce the blockage of the nozzle exit area with minimal engine thrust penalty. The cold air jets issued at design Mach numbers 1.5 and 1.75 from the De Laval nozzles of the circular section were investigated. This passive control eliminates screech tones at the over and ideally expanded conditions at 60° and 90° in the azimuth plane. The acoustic data measurements have also been observed for the chosen jet Mach numbers. The schlieren images reveal the shock cell pattern to eliminate the effect of shock-associated noise levels at supersonic jets. The results show that 10 chevrons with no penetration act as an effective eliminator of screech tone and noise suppression average ∆OASPL value up to 3 dB at Mach number 1.75.
