Both fans were tested for aerodynamic performance and acoustic levels in the NASA Glenn Research Center Acoustical Testing Laboratory. A new test rig for small axial flow fans was designed to accommodate the instrumentation and back-pressure adjustments. Measurements acquired were - static pressures for measuring performance, a 72-channel in-duct microphone array, external microphone measurements for acoustics, and inter-stage hot wire measurements of the fan wake. This report documents the acoustic measurements as part of a series of reports.", }
