Funded Activity Summary

Dominant flow noise source identification for ducted marine propellers. Ducted marine propellers are becoming an increasing alternative to conventional open propellers. Understanding flow-induced noise generated by ducted propellers is a key consideration in the design process to minimise noise emission. This project aims to develop new methods to identify turbulent flow sources of a ducted marine propeller that dominate sound. High-fidelity numerical methods will be developed to study the complex interaction between inflow turbulence, support struts, propeller blades and duct structure. Successful identification of the dominant sources of noise will allow for targeted noise mitigation strategies with significant impact for stealth of military vessels and reduction of underwater noise pollution on marine life.
