This paper presents experimental results from a nose landing-gear test campaign. A highly detailed model of the nose section of a 90-seat configuration green regional aircraft concept was built and tested in an aeroacoustic open-jet wind tunnel at full scale. All of the landing-gear components, fixtures, and small details and associated structures such as the complete wheel bay, bay doors, and hydraulic dressings were included at full scale. This paper focuses on one element of the testing: that of component noise assessment. The dressings, wheels, torque link, steering pinion, bay doors, and then the main strut and drag stay were removed in succession, and an acoustic evaluation was performed at a range of velocities from M = 0.12 to M = 0.19 . In addition, hub caps were installed on the wheels, and their performance as a low-noise treatment is presented and assessed for efficacy. The landing gear, doors, and bay generated most noise in the frequency range between 120 and 400 Hz, but appreciable noise above the baseline was measured up to 10 kHz. The low- to midfrequency aerodynamic noise was found to scale with V 6 , as usual; however, the spectra at high frequencies collapsed perfectly when scaled to V 7 , confirming the fact that high-frequency noise is radiated from the turbulent flow surrounding small features. The total noise output of the landing-gear assembly differs from that of the sum of the components in isolation due to installation effects. The research in this paper studied these effects and the influence of the components on each other.
