Abstract

Acoustic microphone arrays and beamforming techniques are widely used for the analysis of rotating noise sources, such as those in turbomachinery. In this study, a circular microphone array is employed to investigate these sources, with a focus on the fundamental constraints of the measurement setup. The interdependent relationship between array diameter and measurement distance is examined, defining a theoretical measurement range. Two key limitations – spatial resolution and spatial aliasing – are identified, and practical formulas are derived to estimate the array diameter range for a given distance. These principles are demonstrated through a simple test case.
