A scaling technique is proposed for the prediction of clustered rocket engine, near-field acoustics. Scaling equations predict the mean square pressures and power spectral density (PSD) of an unknown vehicle, using near-field measurements from a similar vehicle. Separation of nonhomogeneous Shuttle acoustics into Space Shuttle Main Engine (SSME) and Solid Rocket Booster (SRB) component acoustics forms the basis for verification of the proposed scaling equations. Three separate models, based on the total Shuttle PSD, a three-SSME vehicle PSD, and a two-SRB vehicle PSD, are recommended for the Advanced Launch System (ALS) near-field predictions. Acoustic efficiency, equivalent diameter of closely/widely spaced clustered engines, and the use of a distance-dependent spectra for scaling ALS vehicle near-field acoustics are briefly addressed.
