A Study of Sound Insulation Effect of Periodically Arranged Circular Rods

주기적 배열을 갖는 원형 봉 집합체의 차음효과해석

Sound insulation effect of periodically arranged circular rods is studied by numerical method (BEM) and model experiment in anechoic room. Five different cylinder groups of diameter from 48 mm to 27 mm are arranged, where each group consists of 5 rows of identical rods and area ratio is kept almost the same as 60%. Comparisons of results by BEM and experiment show the band gap frequency ranges are qualitatively in agreement, while experiments gives higher attenuations. Frequency shifted attenuations (BEM results) by first group (${\phi}$48), third group (${\phi}$34) and fifth group (${\phi}$27) show that attenuation curves are in reasonable agreements for both plane wave and point source.
