Numerical simulation of unsteady flow and flow-induced sound of an airfoil and a wing/plate junction are performed in the paper by large eddy simulation (LES) and FW-H acoustic analogy. The vortical flows around a NACA0015 airfoil at two angles of attack (0°and 8°) are simulated and analyzed by vortex identification. Simultaneously, the wall pressure fluctuations of the airfoil are computed. At two angles of attack, the flow induced sound of the airfoil is predicted. The computed power spectra agree well with experimental measurements. So the capability of large eddy simulation in predicting unsteady flow and flow induced sound is validated. Subsequently, the horse-shoe vortex around a wing/plate junction in water is computed. Furthermore, the calculations of wall pressure fluctuations and flow induced sound of the junction model at three velocities are accomplished. The predicted results are compared favorably with measured data in large circulation water channel. So the numerical approach for flow induced sound of wing/plate junction in water is validated. It shows that the numerical simulation method in the paper is credible.
