Analysis of the effect of engine orders on the car interior noise

a. To measure the engine orders from a motor vehicle.b. To analyse the effect of the orders into noise inside in the car cabin.

Scope of project titled ‘Analysis of the effect of engine orders on the car interior noise’:

Low noise level inside a car interior has become an attribute to judge a performance of a commercial car. Among the sources of noise is the noise radiated from the engine. This is transmissted either through the air (airborne) or through the structural vibration (structure borne). The engine order depends on the rotational speed of the engine. The project is aimed to measure the engine order using an acoustic microphone and tachometer. The analysis of its effect into the car interior noise is then carried out using the pressure field data inside the cabin obtained from the measurement.

a. To study theory of the reciprocity technique to measure sound radiation.b. To conduct experiment validation to measure sound radiation from a panel using this technique.

Scope of project titled ‘Measurement of sound radition from a panel using a reciprocity technique in an unconditioned room.’:

A reciprocity technique is known as a convenience method to measure sound radiation. A structure is excited by a sound field and its vibration acceleration is measured. The radiated sound power is proportional to the ratio between the acceleration and the sound pressure level of the sound field. Usually this is carried out in a special conditioned room, namely anechoic chamber or reverberation chamber. This project is aimed to conducted the technique in an unconditioned room or with minimum treatment. Some reflective panels will be located around the measure object to increase the diffuse field. Its effect to the measured result will be analysed by comparing this with theory.


Investigation on a technique in separating airborne and structure-borne sources in a motor vehicle using sound transmission loss.

To develop a technique to separate airborne and structure-borne sources in a car using sound excitation.

Scope of project titled ‘Investigation on a technique in separating airborne and structure-borne sources in a motor vehicle using sound transmission loss’:

Low noise level inside the interior has become one parameter to judge performance a car. The interior noise is transmitted from two paths, i.e. from airborne and structure-borne. Airborne noise is caused by noise propagation through air, for example through leaking from passenger car compartment. Meanwhile structure-borne noise is due to vibrating components which then radiate noise, either caused by sound or mechanical excitations. However, the first is dominant at mid to high frequencies and the later dominates at low frequencies. The project is proposed to develop a simple technique to separate the airborne and structure-borne noise using sound excitation. The concept will be based on sound transmission or insertion loss. Experiment will be conducted using loudspeaker and a microphone positioned at the location of the passenger’s ear inside a car.

The project is aimed to first optimise the function of a hand-made impedance tube, i.e. a device used to measure the transmission loss of a partition. Experiment will then be carried out to measure the transmission loss of a double-panel and validate this data against the theory.

The project comprises 40% theory and 60% experiment.

Determination of vibration input power from a structure-borne source

a. To model vibration input power to a structure based on mobility and impedance conceptsb. To predict the uncertainty of the input power due to location, phase and amplitude of the excitation force.

Scope of project titled ‘Determination of vibration input power from a structure-borne source’:

The treatment of structure-borne sound sources remains a challenging problem. Structural excitation to a building floor, for example, by active components like pumps, compressors, fans and motors is an important mechanism of noise generation. Therefore an accurate prediction of the injected input power from such sources is required. The project is aimed to determine the vibration input power from idealised sources, such as beam or plate. The input power is a function of source and receiver mobilities and also free velocity of the source. Idealised situation will be assumed where the source mobility is much lower (rigid) or much higher (flexible) than the mobility of the receiver. The variability of the power will also be drawn due to forcing locations, phase and amplitude.

The project comprises 50% theory and 50% experiment.
