The utilization of advanced fan designs (including higher bypass ratios) and shorter engine nacelles has highlighted a need for increased fan noise reduction over a broad frequency range. With these observations in mind, an acoustic liner optimization process has been developed to achieve improved broadband liner designs. A series of advanced liner design studies at increasing technology readiness levels has been conducted as the overall optimization methodology has been enhanced. In this work, further validation was pursued through the fabrication and testing of two liner designs for the NASA Glenn DGEN Aero-propulsion Research Turbofan. Specifically, single and three layer liners were designed, fabricated, and tested. Analysis of the predicted attenuation results showed them to generally match expected trends for the conditions considered. The effects of source distribution on predicted directivity were also illustrated through the flexibility of a statistical source model. As part of the analysis, the overall design and evaluation capability was extended such that external observer locations may be included in the optimization process. This enhancement will provide a much wider design space for the development of advanced broadband liners. These preliminary results provide further confidence in the design tools and enhancements made to the overall liner design process.
