Abstract

The aerodynamic noise generated by a subsonic jet impinging on a flat plate is studied from measurements of near-field and surface-pressure fluctuations. The far-field noise measured at 90° to the jet axis is found to be generated by two different physical mechanisms. One mechanism is the impinging of the large coherent structures on the plate, and the other is associated with the initial instability of the shear layer. These two sources of noise radiate to the far field via different acoustical paths.
