Recent flight test* of a prop-fen (advanced t ech no tog y turbo-prop) model mounted on a business aircraft revaeled noise leve(s on tha fusaiage surface oonsiderabły towar than was expactad from theoretical cakulattons and other test experi-anca. In this peper tha rola of the fusaiage boundary layer in shialding the surface from noise vie classical refraction effects isexamined.

Analytkal and experimental procedura* were used to predict tha noise transmittad through double wali Windows Into the cabin of a twin-engine G/A aircraft. Tha analytical model was applied to optimize cabin noise through parametric variation of the structural and acoustic parameters. Tha parametric study inc lud es mass addition, increase in pl exi-glass thickness. decrease in w indów size. increase in window cavity depth, depressurization of the spece betwean the two window platas, replacement of tha air cavity with a transparent viscoelastic materiał, change in stiffness of the plexi-glass materiał, and diffarant absorptive materiał* for the interior walls of the cabin.

Kay Word*: Aircraft noise
Tha dapandanca of form and size of aircraft noise zona* on tha physical and air traffic condittons is investigated. Tha acoustic quantiti*s requirad to determine the aquivalant noise levef ara axplalnad. A method to calculate the noise laval curves is prasa mad. Tha form of tha noise mectrum has a strong effact on tha damping of tha waves in tha atmosphare.

Jat noise data ara acquired in three diffarant forms: static. flight, and simulated forward flight. Often data must ba transformad from ona typa to one of the other two. A number of studies exist defining tha ralationship batwaen thasa three typa* of meesurements. Thasa studia* ara de-ficient becausa thay do not explicitly co ns id ar tha jet noise sourca charactaristics or do not daarly distinguish betwean mean square prassura, powar spactral density, and one-third octava band sound pressure level meesurements. In the current study, the reletionships between static, subsonic flight. and subsonic simulatad forward flight one-third octave band sound prassura iaval meesurements were dafined.
