Thermophone - a novel heat transfer based approach to global TOnal Noise cancellation in aviation
Limiting the number of people affected by significant aircraft noise is one of the most important tasks of modern civil aviation. Among different contributors, tonal noise is the most important due to regulatory definitions and its attenuation characteristics, with the largest contributor being the fan aero-acoustics. Current passive noise reduction methods alone are insufficient to conform with the increasingly stringent noise emission regulations. This motivates our research in active noise cancellation, based on creation of equal amplitude and frequency pressure waves, in opposite phase to the disturbance. Having identified that the actuator technology is the main hindrance against…
