Abstract
This study seeks to develop a fundamental comprehension of the noise challenges encountered by commercial aircraft fuselage surface attachments, such as blade antennas and pitot tubes. The study examines the flow characteristics and far-field noise directivity of a wall-mounted NACA0012 airfoil with various sweep angles (−35°, −15°, 0°, +15°, and +35°) and an aspect ratio of 1.5. The Mach numbers of the incoming flow range from 0.8 to 0.9 with a Reynolds number of about 7 × 105. Delayed Detached Eddy Simulation (DDES) and the Ffowcs Williams–Hawkings (FW-H) equation are utilized. The results show that the shock wave intensity at the junction between the airfoil and the bottom wall is enhanced by the forward-swept angle. The shock wave moves and changes into a λ-type structure, while the boundary layer separates and produces shedding vortices in the junction at a smaller Mach number on the forward-swept airfoil compared to the straight airfoil and the backward-swept airfoil. These phenomena cause significant surface pressure fluctuations in the junction and result in a significant dipole noise in the far field, which is the primary source of noise in the far field. In addition, the normal Mach number and the absolute sweep angle also contribute to the far-field noise.
