摘要：
The numerical calculation model for the aero-acoustic analysis of a tilt rotor was established by combining the free wake method and the FW-H (Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings) equation. The numerical method was validated by using the tilt rotor′s aero-acoustic test results. The aero-acoustic characteristics of dual tilt rotors that take into account the force and moment trim of an aircraft in its typical transition path were calculated. The unsteady air load of a rotor blade and its noise data in different observational positions were acquired. The acoustic directivity and sound pressure level of the tilt rotor in its different tilt angles were analysed. The results show that: the acoustic directivity characteristics of an isolate tilt rotor and dual tilt rotors were quite different due to the superposition and offset during noise radiation; the sound pressure level first increases and then decreases along with the rotor′s tilt angle; the maximum sound pressure level occurs at the tilt angle of 30 degree; the acoustic directivity and sound pressure level in different tilt angles vary due to multiple factors such as the Mach number at the rotor tip, air load and rotor orientation. ©2024 Journal of Northwestern Polytechnical University.
