Acoustic Characteristics

The sound absorbing materials used to reduce automobile interior noise are classified into Felt and PU Foam. Felt are widely used not only in internal combustion engine vehicles but also in Electric Vehicles because they are eco-friendly materials that can be recycled and relatively light. Automotive interior parts manufacture materials in various thicknesses depending on the shape of matched parts. The pressed material changes the density, flow resistance and affects the overall NVH performance of the vehicle. In this study we worked to confirm changes in flow resistance, sound absorption coefficient and sound transmission loss performance among acoustic characteristics based on the compress ratio of Felt. It was confirmed that the larger the compression of Felt, the larger the flow resistance value, thereby affecting the acoustic characteristic impedance, sound absorption coefficient and sound transmission loss.

Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the sound insulation of double-leaf panels. In practice, double-leaf panels require a stud between two surface panels. To simplify the analysis, a stud was modeled as a spring and mass. Studies have indicated that the stiffness of the equivalent spring is not a constant and varies with the frequency of sound. Therefore, a frequency-dependent stiffness curve was used to model the effect of the stud to analyze the sound insulation of a double-leaf panel. First, the sound transmission loss of a panel reported by Halliwell was used to fit the results of this study to determine the stiffness of the distribution curve. With this stiffness distribution of steel stud, some previous proposed panels are also analyzed and are compared to the experimental results in the literature. The agreement is good. Finally, the effects of parameters, such as the thickness and density of the panel, thickness of the stud and spacing of the stud, on the sound insulation of double-leaf panels were analyzed.
