Aeroacoustics is the study of the noise produced by an airflow. The present work is focused on implementing a suite of code including a parallel code in C and scripts in Matlab and Python that can, coupled with a CFD code, compute the noise field generated by an incompressible flow around a generic three-dimensional surface or blunt body. Amongst the various aeroacoustics analogies available in the literature, the Curle’s analogy has been implemented mainly because it allows to compute the acoustic pressure from a flow resolved making use of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The numerical algorithm has been programmed in C and parallelized in MPI using a strategy of splitting the elements of the mesh between the processors available. MMS has been used to validate the code and a small scalability test has been performed showing that the code scales correctly running at least in 24 processors. Finally, the study of the flow and the aerodynamic noise produced by an hemisphere at M = 0.294 and Re = 1000 has been performed under a grid of 1.53 million points. The results obtained (drag force coefficient, pressure coefficient distribution, skin friktion coefficient distribution, boundary layer thickness and shape factor) present a good agreement with these found in the literature, however the y + distribution and the Q isocontours show that the mesh is not fine enough. The noise field also presents encouraging results, despite the fact that the pressure fluctuations are not completely resolved. In overall, the performance and good results obtained from the code encourage further work with increased computational resources that allow to make a grid convergence study for the hemisphere case.
