混响室中悬挂扩散板和试件面积对吸声测量结果的影响

混响室中的扩散程度通常对材料吸声系数测量值有较大影响,悬挂无规取向的扩散板可改善声场的扩散性能。我们的经验是在100m~3左右的小混响室内,扩散板占地面面积的60—70％即可达到足够的扩散。但是这里也发现如软质纤维板(不论其表面处理及穿孔情况如何)之类材料的吸声系数与扩散条件关系不大,可解释为它们随入射角不同只有很小变化,因此不适宜用来判断声场扩散的改善程度。多种常用吸声材料的测试结果表明,如果试件长宽比在0.7—1.0之间,试件面积从10m~2改变至6m~2对吸声系数测量值的影响并不太明显,其差异约小于0.02,个别吸声系数很高的材料,其差异也不超过0.06,与一般测试误差相接近。因而可以把最小试件面积规定为6m~2,以便利测试,也能满足一般工程要求的测试精度。

Prediction of sound absorption of a periodic groove structure with rectangular profile

Sound absorption of a periodic groove structure with rectangular profile is studied in this paper. On the basis of De Bruijn’s theory, by conducting matrix manipulation in MATLAB, a good prediction of the sound absorption of a periodic groove structure is obtained. Experiments in the Kundt’s tube are carried out and the results match the calculation well. This series of experiments and computation show that with the same period and the same ratio of absorber, groove structures have a much better sound absorbing ability than flat surface structures. Besides, a parametric survey has been done on the performance of the periodic groove structure and porous absorber as well. The parameters are the period of the surface, the ratio of the absorber, the depth of the groove, and the thickness, the flow resistivity, the open volume porosity and the structure factor of the porous absorber. Based on this survey, a periodic groove structure, as well as the porous absorber, with required sound absorbing capability can be created by arranging these parameters suitably.

General regression neural network for prediction of sound absorption coefficients of sandwich structure nonwoven absorbers

In this paper, we propose a more general forecasting method to predict the sound absorption coefficients at six central frequencies and the average sound absorption coefficient of a sandwich structure nonwoven absorber. The kernel assumption of the proposed method is that the acoustics property of sandwich structure nonwoven absorber is determined by some easily measured structural parameters, such as thickness, area density, porosity, and pore size of each layer, if the type of the fiber used in nonwoven is given. By holding this assumption in mind, we will use general regression neural network (GRNN) as a prediction model to bridge the gap between the measured structural parameters of each absorber and its sound absorption coefficient. In experiment section, one hundred sandwich structure nonwoven absorbers are particularly designed with ten different types of meltblown polypropylene nonwoven materials and four types of hydroentangled E-glass fiber nonwoven materials firstly. Secondly, four structural parameters, i.e., thickness, area density, porosity, and pore size of each layer are instrumentally measured, which will be used as the inputs of GRNN. Thirdly, the sound absorption coefficients of each absorber are measured with SW477 impedance tube. The sound absorption coefficient at 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, 2000 Hz, 4000 Hz and their average value are used as the outputs of GRNN. Finally, the prediction framework will be carried out after the desired training set selection and spread parameter optimization of GRNN. The prediction results of 20 test samples show the prediction method proposed in this paper is reliable and efficient.     

The effect of grazing mean flow on acoustical characteristics of the micro-perforated panel absorber

There are three effects of grazing mean flow on acoustical characteristics of the micro-perforated panel absorber(1) on radiation impedance of the orifice,(2) on acoustical impedance of the construction at sound wave angle incidence,(3) on sound propagation property in a duct lined by absorber.Based on the acoustical fundamental principle,these effects were analyzed respectively,and relative formulas were derived. Some qualitative tendencies were shown that radiation impedance of an orifice,value ofξin function coth(ξ) which estimates cavity impedance,and transmission loss in a lined duct all will decrease with flow speed increases as well as the resonant frequency will move to lower frequency caused by Doppler Effect,when sound wave propagation direction is the same with flow direction. The discussion was also supported by a relative experimental study.     

Prediction of the reverberation absorption coefficient of finite-size membrane absorbers

This paper presents a method to predict the reverberation absorption coefficient of a finite-size membrane absorbers composed of a single- or double-leaf membrane structure of various configurations. In order to predict the sound absorptivity of such an absorber, it is needed to consider that sound is incident from both sides of the absorber, which has not been accounted for the previous studies on membrane absorbers. The edge effect also needs to be considered if the absorber is rather small. The present method is established based on the theory for absorbers hanged in a reverberation chamber developed by Fujiwara and Makita [J Acoust Soc Jpn (E) 1980;1:37-45]. The same theory requires the fraction of energy dissipation in the absorber, which can be obtained by the difference of absorption and transmission coefficients, and the difference is calculated by the theories for various membrane structures presented in the authors’ previous work. An experimental study was also conducted to validate the present method: the predicted values showed good agreement with the measured ones. The numerical examples calculated by the present method are also presented to discuss the effect of the various control parameters, and it is suggested how to improve the sound absorption performance of double-leaf membrane absorbers with a permeable and an impermeable leaves.     

A numerical study of double-leaf microperforated panel absorbers

Microperforated panel (MPP) absorbers are promising as a basis for the next-generation of sound absorbing materials. Typically, they are backed by an air-cavity in front of a rigid wall such as a ceiling or another interior surface of a room. Indeed, to be effective, MPP absorbers require the Helmholtz-type resonance formed with the backing cavity. Towards the creation of an efficient sound-absorbing structure with MPPs alone, the acoustical properties of a structure composed of two parallel MPPs with an air-cavity between them and no rigid backing is studied numerically. In this double-leaf MPP (DLMPP) structure, the rear leaf (i.e., the MPP remote from the incident sound) plays the role of the backing wall in the conventional setting and causes resonance-type absorption. Moreover, since a DLMPP can work efficiently as an absorber for sound incidence from both sides, it can be used efficiently as a space absorber, e.g., as a suspended absorber or as a sound absorbing panel. The sound absorption characteristics of the double-leaf MPP are analysed theoretically for a normally incident plane wave. The effects of various control parameters are discussed through a numerical parametric study. The absorption mechanisms and a possible design principle are discussed also. It is predicted that: (1) that a resonance absorption, similar to that in conventional type MPP absorbers, appears at medium-to-high frequencies and (2) that considerable “additional” absorption can be obtained at low frequencies. This low-frequency absorption is similar to that of a double-leaf permeable membrane and can be an advantage compared with the conventional type of MPP arrangement.     

切向流对微穿孔共振吸声结构声学性能的影响

切向流对微穿孔共振吸声结构声学性能的影响可以分成三类:(1)对小孔辐射声抗的影响;(2)对结构斜入射吸声性能的影响;(3)对消声通道消声性能的影响。根据声学基本理论,详细讨论这些影响,得到对应的理论分析公式。定性而言,若声波的传播方向与气流的运动方向一致,小孔外侧的辐射声抗、空腔声阻抗函数coth (ξ)的宗量ξ赋值和消声通道的消声系数都会减小;同时呈现多普勒效应,使得结构的吸声系数共振峰频率向低频移动。理论分析得到相应实验研究的支持。      

Two-dimensional poroelastic acoustical foam shape design for absorption coefficient maximization by topology optimization method

Optimal shape design of a two-dimensional poroelastic acoustical foam is formulated as a topology optimization problem. For a poroelastic acoustical system consisting of an air region and a poroelastic foam region, two different physical regions are continuously changed in an iterative design process. To automatically account for the moving interfaces between two regions, we propose a new unified model to analyze the whole poroelastic acoustical foam system with one set of governing equations; Biot's equations are modified with a material property interpolation from a topology optimization method. With the unified analysis model, we carry out two-dimensional optimal shape design of a poroelastic acoustical foam by a gradient-based topology optimization setting. The specific objective is the maximization of the absorption coefficient in low and middle ranges of frequencies with different amounts of a poroelastic material. The performances of the obtained shapes are compared with those of well-known wedge shapes, and the improvement of absorption is physically interpreted.     

Relaxation of sound fields in rooms of diffusely reflecting boundaries and its application in acoustical radiosity simulation

The acoustical radiosity method is a computationally expensive acoustical simulation algorithm that assumes an enclosure with ideal diffuse reflecting boundaries. Miles observed that for such an enclosure, the sound energy decay of every point on the boundaries will gradually converge to exponential manner with a uniform decay rate. Therefore, the ratio of radiosity between every pair of points on the boundaries will converge to a constant, and the radiosity across the boundaries will approach a fixed distribution during the sound decay process, where radiosity is defined as the acoustic power per unit area leaving (or being received by) a point on a boundary. We call this phenomenon the "relaxation" of the sound field. In this paper, we study the relaxation in rooms of different shapes with different boundary absorptions. Criteria based on the relaxation of the sound field are proposed to terminate the costly and unnecessary radiosity computation in the later phase, which can then be replaced by a fast regression step to speed up the acoustical radiosity simulation.     

Dimensionless heat transfer correlations for estimating edge heat loss in a flat plate absorber

Data obtained from heat transfer relations discretized with the finite element method were used in developing dimensionless correlations, which led to determining prediction equations for the average edge temperature of a flat plate absorber. For a prescribed flux, if parameters like the incident radiation intensity, edge insulation thermal conductivity and ambient temperature are known, the value of the edge temperature variable is immediately determined. A range of edge-to-absorptive area ratios is considered, as well as the effects of the edge insulation on enhancing thermal performance. Notably, the edge loss is high in absorbers with high edge-to-absorptive area ratios and ambient conditions with low h _a and T _a . In extreme operating conditions, however, the loss can be employed of a high proportion. As a result, prediction equations are obtained, which can be employed in design and simulation so as to minimize useful energy losses and thereby improve efficiency.
