Abstract
Vehicle air conditioners generate a booming noise when pressure pulsation in the compressor is generated and transmitted to vehicle interiors through the attached pipes and chassis, which constitute a typical noise transfer path between the compressor and the interior. In this study, the transfer path analysis and operational deflection shape methods were employed for analyzing the characteristics of noise transfer paths, and acoustic intensity was measured through empirical experiments for analyzing the characteristics of the response system. The rigid body mode of the double pipe influences the dynamic behaviors of the liquid pipe, which is the major noise contribution path. The force exerted on the liquid pipe generates not only structure-borne noise but also air-borne noise in a heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system. An experiment was carried out to reduce such noise by distributing the high noise contribution to the low one. Through this experiment, we propose a path coupling method for noise reduction that modifies the contribution of each transfer path from the source to the receiver.
