摘要
Wind tunnel testing and embedded large eddy simulations are employed to study the noise reduction of trailing-edge finlets on an airfoil. Trailing-edge finlets are shown to increase the distance between the highly energetic fluid particles and the sharp trailing edge. Experiments were conducted at different angles of attack. Wind tunnel measurements confirm that finlets reduce the broadband noise radiated by the airfoil. Results also reveal that the noise reduction of finlets is dependent on the airfoil angle of attack, and that the highest noise reduction is obtained at the largest angle of attack tested.
