TL;DR: In this paper, a review of recent analytical, numerical-simulation and experimental studies of sound generation by high-Reynolds-number turbulent shear flows are reviewed, with a focus on the application of linear rapid-distortion theory to the calculation of the unsteady flow field producing the sound.
Abstract: Recent analytical, numerical-simulation and experimental studies of sound generation by high-Reynolds-number turbulent shear flows are reviewed, with a focus on the application of linear rapid-distortion theory to the calculation of the unsteady flow field producing the sound. This approach is considered the most important alternative to acoustic-analogy methods. Topics surveyed include the linear theory of solid-surface interactions, the jet-noise problem, extensions to more complex turbulent flows, and supersonic flows. Graphs comparing theoretical and experimental results are shown.

TL;DR: In this article, the sound radiation is obtained by integrating over the flow field with the Coriolis acceleration as the source term and a low frequency Green's function technique, and time histories, spectra, and directivity of the radiated sound are obtained.
Abstract: Sound generation by uniform flow over a cylinder at the Reynolds number of 200 is calculated. The incompressible, time dependent flow field is first computed by standard computational fluid dynamics techniques using a stream function/vorticity formulation. The sound radiation is then obtained by integrating over the flow field with the Coriolis acceleration as the source term and a low frequency Green's function technique. Time histories, spectra, and directivity of the radiated sound are obtained. Comparisons with experimental data, where possible, indicate the feasibility of this computational aeroacoustics approach.
