One of the interesting and important problems involving turbulent jets is that of determining the spectrum of the radiated sound. This has proved to be a difficult theoretical problem because the space‐time correlation of the velocity is central in the prediction of such sound characteristics. In this work, the following assumptions are used in the development. First, it is supposed, as is often the case in turbulence measurements, that the turbulent fluid has approximately Gaussian statistical characteristics. Then, it is supposed that the space‐time characteristics for the needed second‐order velocity correlation can be obtained by assuming that the fluid is approximately in “frozen flow.” From these assumptions, the higher‐frequency sound‐power spectrum is obtained in terms of an integral over the turbulence energy spectrum. For the familiar energy spectrumk−5/3, it is found that the sound spectrum behaves like ω−4/3. This is flatter than most measurements. A measured frequency spectrum of ω−3would be obtained from an energy spectrumk−5/2.
