| Abstract/Description: | The objective of this thesis is to review recently developed empirical and analytical models for the surface pressure and wavenumber spectra for fully developed boundary layers to highlight the effect of assumptions about the turbulence length scales and show how the effects of mean flow Reynolds number has on the spectra shape. The Goody model is used as a reference model to compare the spectra shape as it characterizes the basic physical features of the wall-pressure spectrum under a zero-pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer and scales as a function of Reynolds number. The turbulence length scales of the comparison models are modified to observe the effects on the shape of the spectra. A new model is also considered that also scales as a function of Reynolds number and is compared to the Goody model. | |
