Data and code underlying Ch. 8 and Ch. 9 of PhD thesis: Noise measurements of a Pipistrel Velis Electro and Pipistrel Virus aircraft at Teuge International Airport

Dataset

Description

The goal of the measurements is to understand the noise sources on an electric aircraft as well as its combustion-engine counterpart. The data is used to validate a tonal propeller noise prediction model, as well as for assessment of annoyance of electric aviation.

The noise measurements were conducted with a phased microphone array consisting of 64 channels. The measurements were recorded with aircraft from E-flight Academy. The pilots were performing low-passes or a take-offs at Teuge International Airport, The Netherlands. During these measurements additional data from the cockpit on aircraft performance as well as from a GPS tracker has been saved.

The data set also includes microphone array measurements (112-mics) of engine runups at various positions around the propeller plane. A code is provided to read the time-pressure data and allocate the data to a microphone coordinate, such that acoustic imaging methods can be applied.
