Aerodynamic Noise

An Introduction for Physicists and Engineers

by Tarit Bose ...

Series series Engineering (R0)
Aerodynamic Noise extensively covers the theoretical basis and mathematical modeling of sound, especially the undesirable sounds produced by aircraft. This noise could come from an aircraft’s engine—propellers, fans, combustion chamber, jets—or the vehicle itself—external surfaces—or from sonic booms. The majority of the sound produced is due to the motion of air and its interaction with solid ... Read more
