Description:
A linear aerodynamic-acoustic theory is developed for the prediction of the surface pressure distribution and three-dimensional acoustic far-field for a flat plate rectangular wing encountering a stationary short-wavelength oblique gust. It is suggested that for an infinite-span wing, leading- and trailing-edge responses to a short-wavelength gust are essentially independent. This idea is used to solve for the two-dimensional pressure field due to the passage of an infinite-span wing through an oblique gust. By allowing the field point to come down to the wing's surface, one finds an expression for the surface pressure distribution which agrees with that given in the two-dimensional aerodynamic theories of Amiet and Adamczyk. Spanwise Fourier superposition of two-dimensional solutions to the infinite-span wing problem is used to approximate the three-dimensional acoustic field due to the interaction of a stationary oblique gust with a flat-plate rectangular wing traveling at a subsonic speed.
