Scaled models are implemented to study the radiated noise from the ships' propellers. Typically, acoustic measurements are performed inside a cavitation tunnel using those scaled models of the propeller. This work aims to present a modal acoustic characterization of the cavitation tunnel of the DITEN department of the University of Genoa in the...

The noise radiated by ship propellers can be studied by analyzing scaled models in a cavitation tunnel. However, transferring the measurements made in the enclosed space of the tunnel to the expected values in a full-scale propeller (in a free field) presents a challenge for noise measurements. An acoustic characterization of the DITEN...
