This paper presents a combined experimental and numerical study that characterises the directivity of blade-tower interaction (BTI) noise. Numerical computations were performed using a hybrid approach combining unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and Curle's acoustic analogy, allowing the noise from the blades and the tower to be computed separately. The noise directivity of the blade and the tower components have a dipole pattern and a monopole-like pattern, respectively; hence, the resulting BTI noise directivity resembles an oval. Partial cancellations between the blade and tower components are also shown to affect the BTI noise directivity.
