A description is given of the ground test quiet nacelle for the TF34 engine. The suppression treatment consists of cylindrical splitters in the inlet and fan exhaust ducts plus duct wall treatment and core exhaust wall treatment. Aerodynamic design analysis of the inlet and exhaust ducts and overall engine performance with pressure losses from the acoustic treatment is included. The objectives of the test program are to obtain noise data for a heavily suppressed high bypass turbofan with various arrangements of exhaust systems and acoustic treatment, and to provide a basis for the power plants of the Quiet Experimental STOL Aircraft (Questol).
