Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a technology in the field of acoustic testing, specifically a four-degree-of-freedom automated acoustic holographic scanning test and analysis system. Background Technology
[0002] The near-field acoustic holography method based on the fundamental solution of spherical functions establishes a mapping relationship between the characteristic decomposition mode of vibration velocity on the structural surface and the distribution mode of the radiated sound field. By identifying the participation coefficient of the radiated sound pressure distribution mode on the measurement surface, the required acoustic physical quantities are directly reconstructed on the structural surface according to the mapping transfer relationship. When reconstructing the sound source using this method, sound pressure data needs to be collected at multiple measurement points on the holographic surface. Existing techniques generally use a microphone array to scan the holographic surface to obtain sound pressure data, but moving the microphone array is often cumbersome, which limits the application of this method. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies that rely on manual calibration before testing, leading to significant detection errors and unsuitability for situations with a large number of measurement points. It proposes a four-degree-of-freedom automated acoustic holographic scanning test and analysis system. This system utilizes a motor and linear guide rails to automatically move a microphone array to a designated measurement position. During testing, the positional error of the measurement points is minimized, improving testing accuracy and simplifying operation. It also enables automated acquisition of sound pressure signals during near-field acoustic holographic testing.
[0004] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0005] This invention relates to a four-degree-of-freedom automated acoustic holographic scanning test and analysis system, comprising: an acoustic holographic testing platform, a microphone array, a PLC control device, a data acquisition device, and an analysis module. The acoustic holographic testing platform is connected to the PLC control device, and the sound source to be tested is placed on the acoustic holographic testing platform. The microphone array is set on the acoustic holographic testing platform and connected to the data acquisition device. The analysis module determines the measurement position based on the position of the sound source to be tested and the size of the microphone array and outputs the result to the PLC control device. After the PLC control device drives the microphone array to move to the measurement position, the microphone array scans the measurement points on the holographic surface of the object under test. The data acquisition device collects the sound pressure signals of the measurement points, and the analysis module obtains the sound source distribution of the object under test according to the acoustic holographic scanning algorithm.
[0006] The measurement position refers to the position of the microphone circular array in three-dimensional space, where the data acquisition device collects sound pressure data. This position is determined by the location of the sound source under test, the installation position of the microphone circular array in the acoustic holographic test platform, and the order of the fundamental solution of the spherical function.
[0007] The analysis module includes a communication unit, a data acquisition and control unit, and a scanning and measurement unit, wherein: the communication unit outputs measurement position commands and receives sound pressure signals; the data acquisition and control unit controls the data acquisition device; and the scanning and measurement unit calculates the sound source distribution of the object under test according to the acoustic holographic scanning algorithm.
[0008] This invention relates to a four-degree-of-freedom automated acoustic holographic scanning test and analysis method based on the above-mentioned system. First, microphones are set on a microphone circumferential array. Then, the measurement position is written into a PLC control device through an analysis module. The PLC control device then drives the microphone circumferential array to move to the designated measurement position to collect sound pressure data. Specifically, the analysis module automatically calculates the measurement position based on the location of the sound source to be tested, the installation position of the microphone circumferential array in the acoustic holographic test platform, and the order of the fundamental solution of the spherical function. Based on the collected sound pressure data on the holographic surface, the sound source distribution of the object under test is obtained using a near-field acoustic holography method based on the fundamental solution of the spherical function.

[0024] Each bracket 25 has a microphone mounting device 26 attached to its end by screws for holding a microphone 27.
[0025] The bracket 25 is movably mounted on the bracket fixing device 24, thereby adjusting the vertical position of the microphone 27. Several evenly distributed circular holes on the bracket 25 can adjust its horizontal position on the bracket fixing device 24, thereby adjusting the horizontal position of the microphone 27. The horizontal position of the microphone 27 can be finely adjusted by adjusting the position of the microphone 27 in the microphone fixing device 26.

[0027] like Figure 4As shown, the horizontal and vertical positions of the microphone on the microphone array, i.e., the positions of the microphone on the microphone array, are determined in the following way: First, the angle of the microphone in the circumferential direction is determined according to the Gauss-Legendre quadrature formula. The order of the fundamental solution of the spherical function is taken as N, and the node of the Gauss-Legendre quadrature formula at N ≥ 1 is μ. i (i = 1, 2, ..., N+1, μ) i If ∈[-1, 1]), then the angle θ of the i-th microphone is... i =arccosμ i θ i ∈[0, π], based on the radius R of the holographic surface, the horizontal position u of the microphone in the microphone circular array is obtained. i =Rsinθ i and vertical position v i =R(1-|cosθ) i |).
[0028] The aforementioned acoustic holographic scanning algorithm specifically includes:

[0030] Step S2: Determine the horizontal and vertical positions of the microphone on the microphone circular array based on the order of the fundamental solution of the spherical function and the radius of the holographic surface, and set up the microphone.
[0031] Step S3: Set the position of the sound source to be tested, the size of the microphone array, and the order of the fundamental solution of the spherical function. The analysis module calculates the coordinates of the scanning measurement position based on these parameters, and simultaneously sets the data acquisition waiting time for each measurement position, writing it into the PLC control device. Specifically: Figure 5 As shown, the coordinates of the center of the equivalent sphere source of the sound source under test are (x... s y s , z s The horizontal and vertical offsets of the microphone array relative to the rotating component are L1 and L2, respectively. A polar coordinate system is established with the center of the equivalent spherical source of the sound source under test as the origin. When the order of the fundamental solution of the spherical function is N, the coordinates of the i-th measurement position are: in:
[0032] Step S4: The PLC control device controls the microphone array to move sequentially to each measurement position, and the data acquisition device collects data at the measurement position.
[0033] Through specific measurements, the test was conducted in a semi-anechoic chamber, using a cube with a side length of 0.2m as the vibration sound source. Taking the order N = π / 2, the fundamental solution of the spherical function, seven microphones were arranged on a microphone circular array, resulting in 13 measurement positions and a total of 91 measurement points on the holographic surface. After setting the horizontal and vertical offsets of the microphone circular array relative to the rotating component, and the coordinates of the center of the equivalent spherical source, the test device was activated to collect the sound pressure at the measurement points. Using the collected sound pressure data, a reconstruction was performed at 314Hz using the near-field acoustic holography method based on the fundamental solution of the spherical function, yielding the surface normal vibration velocity distribution, as shown below.
