In spite of recent advances in LES methods, RANS based jet noise prediction models appear to be the only realistic, near term, approach for the development of a jet noise prediction procedure that is applicable to chevron nozzle flows, or other advanced nozzle designs. The present paper describes the application of such a model to a series of chevron nozzle flows and the model predictions are compared with experimental data. It is shown that the chevr ons affect t he flow in two important ways. The f irst effect is that the axial vortices cause a very rapid increase in the width of the mixing layer. This process, in effect, leads to a local im balance between the turb ulence and the mean flow, a reduction i n the turbulence production, and an overall reduction in the peak turbulence level, thus contributing to a noise reduction at the lower frequencies. The second is more complex and appears to involve an interaction between the axial vortices and the jet tur bulence that causes more of the high frequency noise from this region to be radiated to the far field. The strength of this new noise source appears to scale with the strength of the axial vortices.
