This paper presents an assessment of the airframe noise prediction capability in the research version of the NASA Aircraft Noise Prediction Program (ANOPP) with the objective of validating the accuracy of the current prediction methods, and more importantly, identifying the potential improvements to update the methods. The assessment compares predictions of the individual noise components currently implemented in ANOPP, including the landing gear, the slat, the flap, and the trailing edge noise, with the data from the Propulsion Airframe Aeroacoustics and Aircraft System Noise flight test conducted as part of the Boeing 2020 ecoDemonstrator program on a Boeing 787-10 Etihad Airways aircraft. For each component, prediction errors and discussions are presented for the noise characteristics, covering not only the source features but also the installation effects. It is shown that the predictions by the research level methods in ANOPP capture the major noise features, but improvement potential is identified in two main categories. The first includes minor features that have not been sufficiently modeled in the current methods, the noise due to interactions of the landing gear wake with the flaps and the slat bracket noise, for example. The second is related to changes in modern aircraft designs, which may alter the noise source mechanisms, and thus, calls for major improvements and updates on the current prediction models, examples including the flap side edge noise for modern flap systems and the trailing edge noise for realistic wings with taper and sweep. To illustrate the progress of the method development, previous generations of airframe noise models in ANOPP are also compared with the flight test data.
