Abstract

In order to reduce the noise emitted by aircraft engines, the nacelle is coated with acoustic liners. An undesirable effect of these surfaces is that they increase the aerodynamic drag. In the present work, we characterize this type of surface roughness by performing Direct Numerical Simulations of fully resolved acoustic liner geometries. We find evidence of a fully rough regime, whose onset is determined by the value of the viscous-scaled Forchheimer coefficient. Moreover, the intensity of the wall-normal velocity fluctuations at the wall also scales with the viscous-scaled wall-normal permeability, leading to a relation between fluctuations and added drag.
