Abstract: The source of audible tones occurring with a coaxial nozzle in a range of low Mach numbers 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 (M(sub j)), first a tone occurred at about 2550 Hz around M(sub j)=0.06. At higher values of M(sub j) a tone at 5200 Hz dominated the noise spectra. The corresponding nondimensional frequen…
