iPad makes a whooshing noise?
My iPad 2 makes a whooshing noise every 15 minutes. It only works when I am connected to my WiFi, but it is very annoying and even makes this noise when the iPad is locked.

better take it to Apple Store to replace your iPad
The fact that it only makes this sound when connected to WiFi suggests that you have an alert sound set for when it receives or sends some sort of notification. e.g. mine makes a swooshing sound when mail gets sent. Check under settings somewhere and you might figure out what's going on.
I do have fetch email on... I'll disable it and see what happens.
This worked on my iPad, Check Settings > General > Sounds and look through what is selected for the various alert sounds. The "ding" sound was making the sound.
