Abstract

Compressor radiated noise is one of the dominant noise for the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. Therefore, air conditioner makers are trying to reduce it continuously. Even though noise absorption and isolation technology are one of the important parts for reducing the noise from the compressor, it is usually treated to the substitute technology when the noise from the compressor is very difficult to reduce by the compressor noise control only. In this paper, we focus on the property of the sound insulation for the cabinet and measure it applying the theory of the sound transmission loss and insertion loss of the simple enclosure. The insertion loss is evaluated by the experiments according to the thickness and the aperture of the partition in the cabinet.
