    Abstract

    Turbulent boundary layer noise in pipe flow at ReD = 5000 (or Reτ = 175) and M = 0.1 is investigated by a LES/LPCE hybrid method. The generation and propagation of acoustic waves are computed by solving the linearized perturbed compressible equations (LPCE), with acoustic sources (DP(x, t)/Dt) attained by incompressible large eddy simulation (LES). The acoustic power spectral density is closely compared with the wall shear-stress fluctuation dipole source of the turbulent channel flow at Reτ = 180 [Hu, Morfey, and Sandham [4]. A constant decaying rate of - 8/5 in the power spectrum is found to be related to turbulent bursts of coherent structures such as hairpin vortex and their merged structures (or hairpin packets), in particular, to their streamwise length scales that represent indeed the local rate of changes of the streamwise linear momentums.
