Abstract

Cabin noise reduction in maglev trains developed by KIMM is studied. Based on the measurements of cabin noise and acceleration levels during running and zero speed conditions, dominant noise sources are identified. After spectra characteristics of noise sources is investigated, efficient noise reducing methods are studied such as STL increasement of floor panels, sealing, and absorption treatment. It is found that the most important noise sources are VVVF inverter and SLIM in running condition. Since the noise sources are under the cabin floor, complete sealing and high STL of the floor panel are shown to be the most crucial factors in noise reduction. After polyurethan form (50t) is added for more sound absorption and sealing treatment, the cabin noise is reduced by 3-4 ㏈.
