Abstract

This work aims to investigate the acoustic characteristics of a piezoelectric micro-perforated panel (MPP) absorber, which is made of a perforated polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film with a backed airgap of 2 cm, as a combination of an active component and passive absorber. In addition to its inherent passive dissipation, as the PVDF-MPP was driven with proper voltages and oscillation frequencies, sound absorption coefficients of the absorber adjacent to the driving frequencies were significantly increased. Compared with mostly previous reported hybrid passive-active absorbers, this one is more compact, and its acoustic property is adjustable, it may provide an approach to achieve intelligent noise control.
