The invention belongs to the technical field of
acoustic metamaterials, and discloses an acoustic
metamaterial silencing structure and a preparation method thereof. The structure comprises a
microwell plate structure layer, a porous
material structure layer and an acoustic
metamaterial unit array structure layer, the
microwell plate structure layer is provided with a first sound absorption channel group, and the
microwell plate structure layer is closer to the sound source side than the porous
material structure layer; the porous
material structure layer is provided with a
second sound absorption channel group; the acoustic
metamaterial unit array structure layer is arranged between the microplate structure layer and the porous material structure layer and comprises a silencing
unit group, the silencing
unit group comprises a plurality of silencing units which are arranged in the circumferential direction, the silencing units define a silencing cavity, neck channels are arranged on the side walls, facing the silencing cavity, of the silencing units in a protruding mode, and the neck channels are communicated with the silencing cavity. The silencing cavity is communicated with the first sound absorption channel set and the
second sound absorption channel set through the neck channel, the inner wall face of the neck channel is limited to form a sound absorption face so that
sound wave energy entering and exiting the silencing cavity can be reduced, and the purposes of silencing and
noise reduction are achieved while the weight is light.
