The Generalized Acoustic Analogy provides a logical framework for the prediction of aerodynamically generated sound. This paper reviews some recent developments in the use of this analogy for the prediction of noise from high speed air jets. Other approaches to jet noise prediction are not discussed. Recent advances in accounting for non-parallel mean flow and temperature effects are described. The results suggest that the former effect is more important than previously believed. They also suggest that previously neglected coupling between momentum flux and enthalpy flux fluctuations can be an important source of noise in high Mach number heated jets. Some recent improvements in acoustic source modeling are also summarized.
