Abstract: | Reducing engine noise is one of the most important issues in lowering vehicle exterior noise. An engine under-cover is one effective measure for reducing engine noise. However, the size of the under-cover is limited by the need to ensure sufficient engine cooling performance. To solve this problem, a new sound insulation panel with ventilation holes was developed and applied to the engine under-cover. The panel accomplishes sound insulation by controlling the acoustic anti-resonance of sound waves transmitted through the ventilation holes. This paper describes guidelines for applying the panel to the engine under-cover from the viewpoints of acoustics and fluid dynamics. |
