Abstract

A computer-aided engineering (CAE) model was developed to analyze the acoustic characteristics of a car cabin. Pro/Engineer Wildfire 4.0 was used to three-dimensionally represent the geometry of the cabin. The CAE, using COMSOL Multiphysics 4.2a, was performed to investigate the distribution of sound pressure fields at natural frequencies. The principle mode indices were (2, 1, 1), (2, 1, 1), (1, 1, 1), and (2, 2, 2), corresponding to the modal coefficients 1, 2, 3, and 4 and the natural frequencies of 179.691, 139.276, 221.620, and 231.386 Hz, respectively. The results of the analysis provided insight into the car cabin design to suppress exterior and interior noise.
