This paper describes the acoustic flight test results of an advanced nacelle inlet acoustic liner concept designed by NASA Langley, in a campaign called Quiet Technology Demonstrator 3 (QTD3). NASA has been developing multiple acoustic liner concepts to benefit acoustics with multiple-degrees of freedom (MDOF) honeycomb cavities, and lower the excrescence drag. Acoustic and drag performance were assessed at a lab-scale, flow duct level in 2016. Limitations of the lab-scale rig left open-ended questions regarding the in-flight acoustic performance. This led to a joint project to acquire acoustic flyover data with this new liner technology built into full scale inlet hardware containing the NASA MDOF Low Drag Liner. Boeing saw an opportunity to collect the acoustic flyover data on the 737 MAX-7 between certification tests at no impact to the overall program schedule, and successfully executed within the allotted time. The flight test methodology and the test configurations are detailed and the acoustic analysis is summarized in this paper. After the tone and broadband deltas associated with the inlet hardware were separated and evaluated, the result was a significant decrease in cumulative EPNL (Effective Perceived Noise Level).
