Can you see the noise? And understand why a stream of air can sound like a roar? In this activity, we invite you to discover how aerospace engineers study the sound produced by high-speed air jets—one of the main sources of noise in aeroplanes and rockets. Through accessible explanations and striking images, you’ll learn how sound waves propagate, why noise is a technological challenge, and how scientists manage to visualise the invisible using light and particles. Together, we’ll explore how the movement of air becomes sound and how techniques like Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) help us
understand it better. An activity designed to see, hear, and understand the most vibrant side of moving air. You don’t have to be an engineer to enjoy the science of noise!
This activity is carried out within the framework of NEXTFLOW (Next-Generation flow diagnostics for control), a scientific project funded by the European Research Council through an ERC Starting Grant from the European Union's Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (GA 949085).
