Özet: Large Eddy Simulation is performed using the NASA Source Diagnostic Test turbofan at approach conditions (62% of the design speed). The simulation is performed in a periodic domain containing one fan blade (rotor-alone configuration). The aerodynamic and acoustic results are compared with experimental data. The dilatation field and the dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) are employed to reveal the noise sources around the rotor. The trailing-edge radiation is effective starting from 50% of span. The strongest DMD modes come from the tip region. Two major noise contributors are shown, the first being the tip noise and the second being the trailing-edge noise. The Ffowcs Williams and Hawkings’ (FWH) analogy is used to compute the far-field noise from the solid surface of the blade. The analogy is computed for the full blade, for its tip region (outer 20% of span) and for lower 80% of span to see the contribution of the latter. The acoustics spectrum below 6 kHz is dominated by the tip part (tip noise), whereas the rest of the blade (trailing-edge noise) contributes more beyond that frequency.
