Abstract
Ultra high bypass ratio aviation jet engines have a smaller sound absorbing liner area than conventional engines. In this project, we will develop sound-absorbing device technology that provides high noise reduction performance even with a small-sized sound-absorbing liner.

Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
To perform many LES calculations by changing the shape of the sound absorbing liner, the calculation performance and the storage capacity of JAXA supercomputer system were required.
Achievements of the Year
Acoustic liners contribute to the reduction of noise in jet engines, but they induce aerodynamic drag. The performance characteristics of acoustic liners vary depending on the shape of the orifices. In this study, we employ UPACS-LES with a compact scheme for analysis of three-dimensional turbulent flow in single acoustic liner model. Inflow Mach number is 0.3. Computations are conducted for three different orifice shapes: a Square, a Z-slit, a Round. Figure 1 shows that the flow goes into the orifices. Computational results indicate that the drag on the square orifice is higher compared to the other orifices. To investigate the reasons. The figure provides a graphical representation of the Reynolds stress distribution on the orifice surface. The figure indicates that the Reynolds stress for the square orifice is generally higher than that of the others, and it shows particularly large values near the sides. The figure illustrates the formation of vortices on both sides of the orifice. The vortices descend along the wall and rotate. This occurs only in the square orifice, thus this is the reason for the high drag.
