Abstract: Abstract Reducing the noise generated by the propulsive jet of an aircraft engine is of great environmental importance. The ‘jet noise’ is generated by complex turbulent interactions that are demanding to capture numerically, requiring fine spatial and temporal resolution. The use of high-performance computing facilities is essential, allowing detailed flow studies to be carried out that help to disentangle the effects of numerics from flow physics. The scalability and efficiency of algorithms and different codes are also important and are considered in the context of the physical problem being investigated.
