Overview

Aeroacoustics of Low Mach Number Flows: Fundamentals, Analysis and Measurement, Second Edition provides a detailed introduction to sound radiation from subsonic flow over moving surfaces. This phenomenon is the most widespread cause of flow noise in engineering systems, including fan noise, rotor noise, wind turbine noise, boundary layer noise, airframe noise and aircraft noise. This fully updated new edition includes additional problems, illustrations and summary materials to support readers. New content covers Rapid Distortion theory (RDT), boundary layer wall pressure fluctuations, and flow induced sound at surfaces. Themes addressing non-compressible flows have also been added, offering coverage of hydroacoustic as well as aeroacoustic applications. New support materials for this edition include course outlines, problem sets, sample MATLAB codes and experimental data to be found at www.aeroacoustics.net.

Author Information

"Stewart Glegg was a professor at Florida Atlantic University until he retired in May 2023 and is now an Affiliate faculty member of CREATe at Virginia Tech. He was an Associate Editor for the AIAA Journal (1994-97) and has served on the editorial board of the Journal of Sound and Vibration and the Journal of Aeroacoustics. In May 2004 he was awarded the American Institute for Aeronautics and Astronautics Aeroacoustics Award for ""Outstanding contributions to the understanding and reduction of fan noise in turbo machinery"". He has published over 200 technical papers in leading scientific and engineering journals. William Devenport is Crofton Professor of Engineering at the Department of Aerospace and Ocean Engineering at Virginia Tech and leads a research program centred on experimental studies of aerodynamics and aeroacoustics. He is Director of the Virginia Tech Stability Wind Tunnel and Director of the Center for Research and Engineering in Aero/hydrodynamic Technology (CREATe). He has published over 200 technical articles and in May 2019 received the AIAA Aeroacoustics Award for “Seminal and pioneering contributions in aeroacoustics particularly in developing new experimental techniques and in the understanding of turbulence and surface roughness noise”."
