摘要
The sound generated by a NACA0012 airfoil in the wake of a rod is numerically simulated by two approaches, one is the large eddy simulation （LES） with the FW-H acoustic analogy and the other is the LES with the Powell vortex sound theory, in order to compare the accuracies of their predictions. The vortical structures around the rod-airfoil are computed by the LES and captured by the vortex identification （Q）. The acoustic predictions are verified by the measurements. It is shown that the computed results by the two hybrid approa- ches （LES and FW-H, LES and Powell） are very similar. Both are shown to be satisfactory in the prediction of the noise generated by an unsteady flow. Subsequently, the numerical simulations of the wall pressure fluctuations and the flow-induced noise of a NACA0015 airfoil are made by the two hybrid approaches. At two angles of attack （ 0~ and 8~ ）, the wall pressure fluctuations of the NACA0015 airfoil are computed. The obtained power spectra of the wall pressure fluctuations are analyzed and compared with the measured data. And the vortical structures around the airfoil at two angles of attack are simulated and analyzed. After that, the flow induced noises of the NACA0015 airfoil at two angles of attack are predicted by the two hybrid approaches （LES and FW-H, LES and Powell）. The radiated sound spectra are analyzed and compared with the experimental data. Comparisons show that both are robust, credible and satisfactory in the numerical prediction of the flow induced noise. All numerical simulations are carried out by parallel processing in the Wuxi supercomputing center.
