It is found that the peak sound spectrum of the Aeolian tone from the semi-circular cylinder is smaller than that from the circular cylinder and the lowest sound is observed around the zero angle of attack. This is due to the reduction in the fluctuating lift force on the semi-circular cylinder compared to that of the circular cylinder. This result suggests the validity of the analogy between the sound pressure level and the fluctuating lift force on a semi-circular cylinder in a stream.
