Powerplant Location<br />
• Acoustic considerations<br />
航空宇航学院<br />
– The further aft on an aircraft the engine is located the less is the<br />
noise impact upon the occupants, but this is not usually a major<br />
consideration.<br />
– Some engine positions, for example those above the wing or<br />
fuselage, reduce the noise as perceived at the ground but at the<br />
expense <strong>of</strong> powerplant efficiency.<br />
– Acoustic fatigue damage to airframe components located near the<br />
exhaust is likely to be a more important consideration.<br />
– It is especially significant for engines which employ reheat when the<br />
exhaust outlets should be behind all major airframe components.<br />
