An Operational Model for the Prediction of Jet Blast

Abstract

This paper presents an operational model for the prediction of jet blast. The model was developed based upon three modules including a jet exhaust model, jet centerline decay model and aircraft motion model. The final analysis was compared with data acquired during a jet blast study conducted by the Volpe Center in 1999. The current analysis closely matched the data from the 1999 test. The analysis was then used to predict the jet blast evolution from aircraft that have been introduced since 1999, including the Boeing 777300ER. The result of this analysis is a tool that can be used to help provide insight to operating procedure designs where jet blast concerns may arise.
