Constant trend of noise stringency increase with respect to civic aviation arise a need for noise reduction in source and improvement of noise reduction technologies applied to turbofan engine Owing to technological complexity and high prices of experimental investigations on full scale engines, it is reasonable to replace the full scale engine by its scaled model The acquisition of fan noise quantitative data for evaluation of aircraft noise generated by turbofan engine became feasible with the development of the universal propulsion simulator UPS. UPS is the scaled model of the turbofan engine fan including air intake, bypass duct and bypass duct jet nozzle Installation UPS inside the anechoic chamber ensured the possibility of all the acoustic fields simultaneous measurements. This point is especially important in view of interaction between separate components of fan noise reduction system 16

CIAM evaluation of VITAL results 10 EPNdB CRTF1 CRTF2a CRTF2b SRF CRTF1 Hush kit 1. According to CIAM interpretation of test results the single rotor fan (SRF) model generates noise, higher than of the CRTF1 model on 10 EPNdB. 2. Tests discovered that CRTF2a counter rotating fan model with thickened composite blades generates noise, higher than of the CRTF1 model. Comparison of these fans noise spectra at the same modes showed, that broadband noise of fan model with thickened composite blades was higher than of the model with thin titanium blades on 2 3 db. 3. It is expected that the real estimation of SRF, CRTF1 and CRTF2a fan models noise lies between Snecma and CIAM assessment.
