Abstract

The exhaust system could be a dominant acoustical source in the passengers vehicle. It would be very important to obtain the acoustically good exhaust system, in order to control the cabin interior sound in automotive. In order to obtain the acoustically good exhaust system in automotive, many kinds of exhaust system should be measured, and simultaneously those results should be compared by the sound quality parameters. In this paper, in order to develop the methodology determining sound quality parameters, acoustic simulator is introduced, combining the time domain analysis and convolution analysis. As an example to verify the reliability of this method, several kinds of measurements are carried out, and the acoustically good exhaust system is selected, based on this proposed method.
