Abstract
With the development of new energy and intelligent vehicles, aerodynamic noise problem of pure electric vehicles at high speed has become increasingly prominent. The characteristics of the flow field and aerodynamic noise of the rearview mirror region were investigated by large eddy simulation, acoustic perturbation equations and reduction order analysis. By comparing the pressure coefficients of the coarse, medium and dense grids with wind tunnel test results, the pressure distribution, and numerical accuracy of the medium grid on the body are clarified. It is shown from the flow field proper orthogonal decomposition of the mid-section that the sum of the energy of the first three modes accounts for more than 16%. Based on spectral proper orthogonal decomposition, the peak frequencies of the first-order mode are 19 and 97 Hz. As for the turbulent pressure of side window, the first mode accounts for approximately 11.3% of the total energy, and its peak appears at 39 and 117 Hz. While the first mode of sound pressure accounts for about 41.7%, and the energy peaks occur at 410 and 546 Hz. Compared with traditional vehicle, less total turbulent pressure level and total sound pressure level are found at current electric vehicle because of the limited interaction between the rearview mirror and A-pillar.
