Abstract

Applications in sustainable energy systems, like heat pumps, are encountering emerging challenges, among which acoustic comfort stands out as a critical factor in shaping the end-user experience. Early integration of vibroacoustic into each industrial design phase ensures the prevention and prediction of potential noise issues, thus avoid costly design modification loops. BDR Thermea and CETIM, in a collaborative project, have implemented new methodologies for designing acoustically optimized products, highlighting the importance of considering vibroacoustic design at each design stage of new products developments. In this study, structure-borne noise characterization methods are applied to a heat pump compressor using the ISO 21955 and ISO 20270 standards. The forces transmitted at its suction and discharge ports were studied through component based TPA for the intrinsic characterization of the compressor. Once obtained, these forces were transposed to a new receiving structure. The results allowed a comparison of the outcomes from both approaches and highlighted the importance of considering the influence of the stiffness of the connections at the compressor ports.
