The paper describes numerical prediction of aerodynamic noise generated from an Aircraft. Simulation of turbulent flow is done solving the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equation, where turbulence is modeled applying the orthogonal subgrid scale (OSGS) method with dynamical subscales. Because of comparison, the same simulation is done using the LES (Large Eddy simulation). It is shown how simulation of turbulent flow affects the prediction of acoustic sources calculated using Lighthill's analogy. Translation from the time to frequency domain is done through DFT (Direct Fourier Transform), which gives smaller usage of memory. Acoustic sources are used in the inhomogeneous Helmholtz equation to simulate pressure wave propagation in the domain. It is shown that OSGS with dynamical subscales gives better representation of the spectrum. Overall, better prediction of energy transfer across large and small eddies will give better allocation and presentation of acoustics sources. These sources will change wave propagation of the pressure in the acoustic field. (© 2017 Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
