Non-Intrusive Flow Field Measurement within a UHBR Intake

Development and experimental verification of non-intrusive measuring techniques suitable for measuring complex flow field(s), both temporally and spatially within a model scale turbofan intake system, for use in large low speed wind tunnels. This capability is required to enable detail understanding of intake fan aerodynamic, aero mechanical and acoustic physics within a future UHBR engine with a short intake. The Project objective is to demonstrate the capability of such a measurement system to map the intake flow field just upstream of the fan; and to post process the data, to rapidly derive intake compatibility metrics.
