Such wavepackets, which represent the organised structures of the flow, are solutions to the linearised Navier-Stokes equations. Using a kinematic two-point model, Wong et al. [1] have indicated the importance of incorporating coherence decay in modelling broadband shock-associated noise (BBSAN) in supersonic jets. In this work, we aim to improve the shock-noise model by using solutions from linear parabolised stability equations (PSE) to model the wavepacket part of the BBSAN source. The two-point coherence of the wavepackets is obtained from large-eddy simulation (LES) data of a Mj = 1.5 fully-expanded isothermal supersonic jet [2]. The aim is to build a dynamic sound-source model for BBSAN that would improve on the simplified line-source model proposed by Wong et al. [3]. We find that a frequency dependent coherence decay length scale is important in order to suppress the higher-order harmonic peaks [4] and to obtain the correct BBSAN peak shape. Moderate agreement up to St = 1 was found between the current noise predictions and those from experimental data.
