Abstract

In this paper, based on statistical energy analysis (SEA), the noise attenuation effect of highway sound absorbing barrier is predicted. The theoretical formula value is compared with the calculated value of statistical energy analysis (SEA) to verify its effectiveness in the prediction of sound barrier. And the insertion loss of sound barrier of mineral wool with diverse material thicknesses and coverage are calculated. The results showed that the noise attenuation of the sound barrier increased by 1.5 dB when the sound absorbing materials are attached to the sound barrier near the acoustic source. The noise attenuation effect of mineral wool is improved in the frequency band below 600 Hz when the thickness is increased. The coverage of mineral cotton increased by 25%, and the noise attenuation increased by 0.4 dB. Meanwhile, it also reflects the advantages of fast and convenient statistical energy analysis (SEA) – only one time modelling and changing its parameters can obtain the corresponding statistical results, which has some excellent reference function.
