Popis: The source of audible tones occurring with a coaxial nozzle is explored experimentally as well as computationally. The hardware is comprised of an inner and an outer nozzle, without a center-body, that are held together by a set of four struts. With increasing jet Mach number ( Mj), first a tone occurred at about 2550 Hz around Mj = 0.06. At higher Mj, a tone at 5200 Hz dominated the noise spectra. The corresponding non-dimensional frequency, based on the effective thickness of the inner nozzle lip and jet exit velocity, turned out to be about 0.2, a value characteristic of Karman vortex shedding. Thus, vortex shedding from the inner nozzle lip could be linked to the tones. From a comparison of acoustic wavelengths and nozzle dimensions, as well as locations of the pressure nodes and anti-nodes from the computational results, it was inferred that the vortex shedding excited one-quarter-wave resonances within the divergent sections of the nozzle. Such resonances in the inner and the outer nozzles produced the higher and the lower frequency tones, respectively.
