In this study, it is experimentally investigated how bell acoustics are influenced by the internal cavity of the bell and the gap between the bell bottom and the floor. Acoustic transmission function and natural frequency of a test bell are measured and analysed. Experimental study is conducted to evaluated how the resonance effect influences the bell sound and how the bell sound is different according to the striking condition and the measurement direction. Acoustic resonance frequency of the cavity-gap system is predicted by boundary element analysis using SYSNOIS and the validity of the predicted result is verified by experiment. The result of the study could be applied to determine the optimal gap size which makes the bell sound strong and long.

A study of prediction and qualification techniques for structure borne booming noise is presented in this paper. Result from acoustic normal mode finite element analysis of a 1/2 size vehicle cavity sample model is compared to the that from an experiment. Coupled structural-acoustic analysis is performed on a 1/4 size vehicle cavity sample model surrounded by 2 mm thick normal steel plates. Interior noise levels around passensger's ear position are predicted and reduced by structural modification based on panel participation factor analysis about the sample cavity model. Futhermore, optimization technique in application of anti-vibration pad is studied.

Sound transmission from the luggage comparment into the car cabin is important in the viewpoint if exhaust and road noises of passenger cars. In this paper, acoustic modal coupling between passenger and luggage compartments through loudspeaker holes at parcel shelf is dealt with for a sedan type passenger car with rigid rear seat. For these purposes, a half-scaled model car is tested and computed by the indirect BEM. Predicted acoustic transfer functions are compared with experimental ones and they agree reasonably well. It is found that the fore-aft resonance frequencies of the passenger cavity in the absence of coupling holes are tend to shift to higher frequencies when the luggage compartment is coupled to the passenger cavity.

To protect a satellite and electronic equipment from the acoustic loads generated by rocket propulsion system, many launch vehicle use acoustic blanket. Most high frequency region of the acoustic loads is reduced by nose fairing skins and acoustic barrier, but low frequency region is not. In order to control low frequency acoustic mode, we designed away resonator panel which was made of composite materials. This paper shows the absorption coefficient measurement result of resonator and SPL(Sound Pressure Level) reduction by using resonators in a rectangular cavity for experiment. Proper arrangement of acoustic resonators at each mode reduce effectively SPL around the satellite through changing boundary condition.

로켓 엔진의 개발에 있어 성능과 수명(life time)에 가장 문제가 되는 것은 연소 안정성에 있다. 일반적으로 연소 불안정을 야기시키는 것은 3가지로서 축방향(longitudinal), 반경방향(radial)과 접선방향(longitudinal) 모드(mode)가 있다. 이와 같은 모드를 제어하는 방법에는 수동적 제어방법으로 음향공(acoustic cavity)과 배플(baffle)이 있으며, 음향공은 모드에 관계없이 특정한 주파수에 맞추어 체적을 조절하여 음향파(acoustic wave)를 감쇄시키는 것이고 배플은 주파수에 관계없이 접선방향 모드를 제어하는 것이 기본 목적이나 허브(hub)를 설치하여 반경방향 모드까지 제어할 수 있다. 음향공은 엔진의 성능 또는 연소장에는 영향을 주지 않고 작동하는 반면, 배플은 초기 엔진설계를 할 때 고려하지 않으면 후에 배플을 장착하였을 때는 초기 설계의 제한 때문에 장착의 어려움과 성능 및 연소장에 영향을 미쳐 원하지 않는 엔진의 시험 결과를 야기할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 KSR-III와 동일한 조건의 연소기에서 다양한 배플을 장착하였을 경우에 대하여 성능과 연소장에 대하여 예측하였다.

The objective of this study is do obtain the relationship between the acoustic mode and cavity tone induced in a perforated tube exhaust muffler. First, the modal frequency for the axisymmetric radial mode and the mode shape have been computed using the impedance model for the perforated tube. Then, experiment has been perfonned for the onset frequencies of the cavity tone for various design parameters and through-flow. The theoretically obtained modal frequencies are well consistent with the measured onset frequencies of the cavity tone, showing that the cavity tone is induced by the axisymmetric radial mode. And it is found that the modal frequency of a perforated tube muffler is much lower than that of a simple expansion chamber.

A theoretical formulation on the forced acoustic response of an enclosed cavity having a double air-gap resonator on one of boundary panels of the cavity is developed in the paper. The double gap resonator consists of two air-gaps and two partition sheets as in the author's previous papers. This paper reveals that the double gap resonator reduces the level of a target noise peak by splitting the peak as two small peaks, and that it is more effective when it is designed so that the upper gap thickness is larger than the lower gap thickness under the constraint that the entire gap thickness is fixed as a constant value. Finally, verification experiments show that the theoretical formulation and analysis results are valid by comparing theoretical results with experimental ones.

The NDIF method is developed for eigenvalue analysis of arbitrarily shaped two-dimensional acoustic cavity with a mixed boundary, which consists of rigid-wall and open boundaries. The NDIF method, which was developed by the author in 2000, has the feature that it yields highly accurate eigenvalues compared with other analytical methods or numerical methods (FEM and BEM). The validity of the proposed method is shown in a case study, which indicate that eigenvalues obtained by the proposed method are more accurate compared to the exact method or FEM(ANSYS).

Acoustic test of the payload fairing of Korea satellite launch vehicle was conducted to verify the performance of acoustic protection system installed inside the payload fairing. This paper briefly introduces the acoustic test procedures and its results. Overall 148 dB acoustic loads were exerted on the payload fairing structures which mated with the upper stage structure of the launch vehicle. In order to verify the increase of insertion loss by the acoustic protection system, two kinds of test were performed. One is conducted with acoustic protection system and the other without acoustic protection system. Internal acoustic loads as well as external ones were measured and the measured insertion losses were compared with the requirement. The results showed that the acoustic protection system increases the insertion loss by more than 6 dB above 125 Hz. They also indicated that some design modification of Helmholtz resonator array is required to increase the insertion loss at a cavity resonant frequency.

Vehicle interior noise is the results of numerous sources of excitation. One source involving tire pavement interaction is the tire cavity resonance and the forcing it provides to the vehicle spindle. Using a simplified model for the tire acoustic cavity system only, we formulated finite element equation to predict the fundamental acoustic cavity resonant characteristics inside tire-wheel assembly of undeformed and deformed tire. Combining the finite element analysis with experimental verification, we explained the acoustic characteristics theoretically. Especially, we have shown that the difference between the first two resonant frequencies increases as the deformation of deformed tire increases.
