Low-frequency narrow-band noise is one of the important components in the slat noise. Based on the transient flow field analysis for multi-element airfoil 30P-30N, the main mode characteristics of the slat pressure fluctuation are analyzed by means of proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and dynamic model decomposition (DMD), and the key feature modes and the distribution of narrow-band frequencies for the slat are obtained. Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and cross-correlation analysis are used to reconstruct the signal by preserving the low frequency characteristics of the original transient pressure signal. The locations of noise sources of the low-frequency narrow-band are determined according to the delay time and geometric relationship for characteristic points. The results show that the low-frequency narrow-band sound sources are mainly concentrated on regions of feature modes with large pressure fluctuations, such as slat trailing edge, downstream of the shear layer and the recirculation zone. Meanwhile, there are still some sound sources of low-frequency narrow-band distributed in regions of non-featured modes. The key characteristics of these regions are the interaction of flow structure between the trailing edge of the slat and the leading edge of the main wing due to collision of the shear layer.
