This citation summarizes a one-page announcement of technology available for utilization. An analytical model predicts the noise levels inside propeller-driven aircraft during cruise at mach 0.8. The model has been applied to three aircraft with fuselages of different size (wide-body, narrow-body, and small-diameter) to determine the noise reductions required to achieve an A-weighted sound level that does not exceed 80 dB. The model was then used to determine noise-control methods that could achieve the required noise reductions. Only one concept, that of a double-wall sidewall, provides the high noise reductions required at low frequencies to achieve the 80-dB(A) goal. ...FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Contact: Tech.
