Abstract

This paper describes a system noise assessment of a conceptual supersonic aircraft called the NASA 55t Supersonic Technology Concept Aeroplane (STCA), its prediction uncertainty, and related validation tests. A landing and takeoff noise (LTO) standard for supersonic aircraft is needed to realize future supersonic aircraft, and the noise impact due to the introduction of future supersonic aircraft should be analyzed to develop the standard. System noise assessments and uncertainty analyses using Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) were performed. The predicted noise levels showed good agreement with the prior study for both the benchmark case and statistics of the predictions. The predicted cumulative noise level satisfied the ICAO Chapter 4 noise standard, and its standard deviation was approximately 2 EPNdB. Moreover, sensitivity analysis using the obtained datasets revealed strong correlations with the takeoff noise for jet noise, fan exhaust noise at the flyover measurement point, and airframe trailing edge noise. Further understanding of these extracted factors, which were estimated to have a significant impact on the LTO noise, will be beneficial for the development of LTO noise standards and the design of supersonic aircraft.
