Abstract
The trend in turbofan engines is towards higher bypass ratio and shorter nacelles. The eigne noise will increase due to smaller sound absorption area resulting from shorter nacelles. We aim to develop next-generation acoustic liner technologies that achieve both noise reduction and fuel efficiency.

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
There have been many cases with different liner geometries and incident sound frequency as analysis parameters.
Achievements of the Year
We performed numerical simulations for demonstrating aeroacoustic phenomena around an acoustic liner installed inside an aircraft engine nacelle. As shown in Fig. 1, the four different geometries of a perforated hole are adopted to investigate its effect, and 110 dB sound is incident from the upstream in a laminar flow of Mach 0.3. Fig. 2 shows the sound absorption coefficient for each of the hole geometries. We assume optimizing hole geometry would improve sound absorption performance while resonance frequency changes. In addition, our simulations extend understanding of the detailed phenomena by visualizing three-dimensional vortical structures represented in Fig. 3 and 4.
