FANPAC

Abstract

Examines the problem of noise level of civil aircraft engines. Focuses on two aspects of aircraft fan noise: cabin noise and community noise. Outlines the FANPAC programme launched in 1992 to assess techniques to control fan noise and describes two of the most promising liner designs. Reports on the progress made and suggests a follow‐on programme to explore further areas.
