This design trend has gradually replaced the traditional split exhaust muffler and catalytic converter layout with an integrated design. By integrating the muffler and catalytic converter into one unit, it not only saves space, but also optimizes the exhaust flow and improves the efficiency of the overall system. In addition, the market demand for automobile noise control is increasing, and consumers' requirements for vehicle quietness are also constantly improving, which has forced automakers to consider more complex exhaust system designs to meet users' expectations for comfort and driving experience.

[0068] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0069] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific implementations and are not intended to limit this application. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0070] For the catalytic converter in the automobile exhaust system, studying the acoustic characteristics of the catalytic converter is of great significance for analyzing the muffler characteristics of the entire exhaust muffler. For example, it can be used to analyze the influence of parameters such as the diameter, length, pore density, perforation rate and pore diameter of the catalytic converter carrier on the muffler performance (transmission loss) of the catalytic converter. For another example, it can be used to analyze the influence of different air flow velocities on the muffler performance (transmission loss) of the catalytic converter. Based on this, the inventor proposes a method, system, device and storage medium for calculating the acoustic characteristics of a catalytic converter. The solution provided in this application will be further described through multiple embodiments below.

[0071] See also Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment provides a method for calculating the acoustic characteristics of a catalytic converter, comprising:

[0072] Step S100: obtaining structural parameter information of the catalytic converter, wherein the structural parameter information includes straight pipe section structural information, carrier section structural information and boundary section structural information.

[0073] In this step, it should be noted that there are certain structural differences between different manufacturers and different models of catalytic converters, but the catalytic converters generally have the same structure, such as Figure 3As shown in the figure, taking a certain catalytic converter structure as an example, the catalytic converter mainly includes a carrier 2 and circular straight tubes 1 at both ends of the carrier 2. The carrier 2 of the catalytic converter is composed of many tiny channels arranged in parallel. At this time, the thermal viscosity of the gas has a significant effect on the attenuation of the sound wave, especially for the noise attenuation of the high-frequency part. Therefore, the acoustic performance analysis in the catalytic converter carrier should fully consider the influence of the thermal viscosity of the gas. For the circular straight tubes at both ends, due to the large diameter, the influence of the thermal viscosity of the gas is very small, so the gas can be treated as an ideal gas.

[0074] At the same time, since the geometric structure of the catalytic converter in the actual automobile exhaust system is relatively complex, in order to facilitate theoretical analysis and calculation, its geometric structure is simplified. The structural parameter information of the catalytic converter mainly includes the straight pipe section structural information, the carrier section structural information and the junction section structural information. The straight pipe section structural information may include parameter data such as the diameter and length of the straight pipes with circular cross-sections at both ends. The carrier section structural information may include parameter data such as the diameter, length, pore density, perforation rate and pore diameter of the carrier. The junction section structural information may include parameter data such as the perforation rate at the junction. The structural parameter information of the catalytic converter may be obtained through manual measurement input or by directly obtaining it by machine by pre-creating a structural model. The specific acquisition method is not limited here.

[0075] Step S200: establishing an overall mathematical model of the catalytic converter based on the structural data of each section and the gas parameter data in the structural parameter information, wherein the overall mathematical model includes a mathematical model of a straight pipe section and a mathematical model of a carrier section;

[0076] In this step, the gas parameter data can be pre-set, and the gas parameter data may include data parameters such as gas constant, sound pressure, density fluctuation and temperature fluctuation. Then, combined with the structural data of each segment in the structural parameter information, an overall mathematical model of the catalytic converter is established. It can be understood that, as described in the previous step, taking into account that the fine holes and the circular straight tubes of the carrier part of the catalytic converter have different effects on the thermal viscosity of the gas, the overall mathematical model of the catalytic converter is segmented to establish a mathematical model, wherein the overall mathematical model may include a straight tube segment mathematical model and a carrier segment mathematical model.

[0077] like Figure 4 As shown, it should be noted that the establishment of the overall mathematical model of the catalytic converter is mainly formed by the transfer matrix relationship of the sound propagation of the entire catalytic converter. In order to obtain the transfer loss of the catalytic converter more accurately, the transfer matrices of different sections of the catalytic converter are established respectively. Finally, the transfer matrix corresponding to the circular straight tube and the transfer matrix of the catalytic converter carrier are connected in series to obtain the transfer matrix expression of the entire catalytic converter. It is assumed that the sound pressure and particle vibration velocity at the inlet of the catalytic converter are respectively , , and the sound pressure and particle velocity at the outlet are , , and, assuming that the sound pressure and particle velocity at the inlet of the catalytic converter substrate are 、 , and the sound pressure and particle velocity at the outlet are , , the process of establishing the mathematical model is described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0078] like Figure 2 As shown, in some examples, the establishment of the straight pipe section mathematical model, the carrier section mathematical model and the final overall mathematical model includes the following steps:

[0079] Step S210: Ignoring the viscosity of the gas, a mathematical model of the straight pipe section is established based on the structural information of the straight pipe section and the one-dimensional plane wave theory of small-amplitude sound waves;

[0080] In this step, based on the one-dimensional plane wave theory of small-amplitude sound waves, the particle velocity and fluctuation amount corresponding to the straight pipe section are obtained; based on the straight pipe section structure information, the particle velocity and fluctuation amount corresponding to the straight pipe section, the first transfer matrix of the sound pressure and particle velocity at the inlet and outlet of the straight pipe section is determined, wherein the first transfer matrix constitutes the mathematical model of the straight pipe section.

[0081] Specifically, due to the large diameter of the straight tube with circular cross-section at both ends, the effect of gas viscosity on the propagation of sound can be ignored. Therefore, the gas in the straight tube can be treated as an ideal gas. Based on the one-dimensional plane wave theory of small amplitude sound waves, after ignoring the traces above the second level, the so-called linearization procedure, the following three control equations can be obtained:

[0082] Equations of motion: (1)

[0083] Momentum equation: (2)

[0084] Continuity equation: (3)

[0085] In the formula, , p are density fluctuation and sound pressure respectively, where the subscript 0 indicates the average value, is the average speed of sound, is the average density fluctuation.

[0086] Combining equations (1), (2) and (3) we can obtain the wave equation of an ideal gas one-dimensional plane wave: (4)

[0087] Solving the wave equation (4) we can obtain: (5)

[0088] In the formula, is the wave number, while A and B are arbitrary constants determined by the boundary conditions, and j is an imaginary number.

[0089] Then, the expression of particle velocity can be obtained from (1): (6), taking a certain moment, that is, removing the time term, a mathematical model for the sound propagation in the straight pipe is established, that is, the transfer matrix relationship between the sound pressure and the particle vibration velocity at the inlet and outlet of the straight pipe is established. Suppose the sound pressure and the particle vibration velocity at the inlet and outlet are p respectively. i 、v i , p0, v0, then the first transfer matrix expression is: (7)

[0090] Where A1, B1, C1, and D1 are the four-level parameters of the straight pipe section.

[0091] We can solve equations (5) and (6) to get:

[0092] (8)

[0093] In the formula, k is the wave number, j is an imaginary number, l is the propagation length (straight pipe length).

[0094] Step S220: establishing a mathematical model of the carrier segment based on the carrier segment structure information and quasi-plane theory, taking into account the flow velocity and viscosity of the gas, and the sudden contraction and expansion of the cross section at the junction;

[0095] In this step, since the fine tubes of the catalytic converter carrier section and the critical surface between the straight tube section and the carrier section have different effects on acoustic propagation, a mathematical model of the fine tubes of the carrier section is established based on the quasi-plane theory of sound propagation in fine pipes when considering gas flow rate and thermal viscosity effects, as well as the structural information of the carrier section; a mathematical model of the inlet and outlet at the junction of the carrier section is established based on the equal sound pressure and continuous volume velocity at the critical surface between the straight tube section and the carrier section; and a mathematical model of the carrier section is determined based on the mathematical model of the fine tubes and the mathematical model of the inlet and outlet at the junction.

[0096] Furthermore, the establishment process of the transfer matrix corresponding to the mathematical model of the carrier section will be specifically analyzed below by combining the specific structure of the catalytic converter and the sound propagation characteristics:

[0097] Due to the tiny pore structure of the catalytic converter, the viscosity of the gas has a significant effect on the propagation of sound. Therefore, the gas can no longer be treated as an ideal gas. It is necessary to establish a control equation for sound propagation that takes into account flow velocity, heat conduction and viscosity effects. The control equations that can describe the propagation of sound in the pipeline are the Navier-Stokes equation, the continuity equation, the energy equation and the state equation. Assuming that the axisymmetric sound waves are superimposed on the uniform axial average flow, the uniform flow velocity is v0, and the functional relationship between each sound field parameter and time is , after transformation, the control equations are:

[0098] Navier-Stokes equations: (9)

[0099] (10)

[0100] Continuity equation: (11)

[0101] Energy equation: (12)

[0102] Equation of state: (13)

[0103] The boundary conditions are:

[0104] when hour, and and T Must be a finite value;

[0105] when hour, .

[0106] In the formula, j is an imaginary number, r is the inner radius of the small tube, is the circular frequency, , and p They are density fluctuation, temperature fluctuation and sound pressure respectively; R is the gas constant; subscript 0 indicates an average value.

[0107] Furthermore, it can be assumed that the variables in the sound field are related to x The functional relationship is , is the wave number in the inviscid case, is the speed of sound, is the unknown propagation constant. From (10), we know that the sound pressure p Only with x The sound field variables can be set as:

[0108]

[0109] In the formula, A is a constant, H and F About r function.

[0110] Substituting formula (14) into formula (9) and (12) yields:

[0111]

[0112] in, , is the Stokes number, is the Mach number of uniform flow, is the Prandtl constant, is the radius of the pipe.

[0113] Equations (15) and (16) can be expressed using Bessel functions The expression for the solution is:

[0114]

[0115] Substituting equations (14) and (17) into equation (13), we can obtain:

[0116]

[0117] in, .

[0118] Substituting equations (14) and (18) into equation (11), we can obtain:

[0119]

[0120] The above formula is r The points can be obtained:

[0121] (19)

[0122] Then the boundary condition and Substituting into (19) we can get K The characteristic equation of is:

[0123]

[0124] By approximating and simplifying equation (20), we can obtain K Solution:

[0125]

[0126] In the formula, is the propagation constant

[0127]

[0128] According to the propagation theory of one-dimensional waves, and Represents a one-dimensional wave as well as When propagating in the direction, the propagation constant of thermoviscosity is considered. Therefore, the solution of the wave equation considering thermoviscosity can be:

[0129]

[0130] Substituting (17) into (14), we can obtain:

[0131]

[0132] in:

[0133] (25)

[0134] When the cross-sectional area of ​​the pipe is large, the radial contribution of these functions does not change much on the pipe cross section, so equation (24) can be integrated on the pipe cross section and its average value on the pipe cross section can be calculated. This is the application form in actual general pipes.

[0135]

[0136] in:

[0137] (27)

[0138] And by: (28)

[0139] From (27), we get:

[0140]

[0141] For (27) By approximating , we can get:

[0142]

[0143] Equations (21)(23)(26)(30)(31) constitute the quasi-plane theory of sound propagation in small pipes when considering flow velocity and thermoviscous effects.

[0144] Length of catalytic converter , the specific value can be selected according to actual needs. Assume that the sound pressure and particle vibration velocity at the inlet and outlet of the thin tube are , then the transfer matrix expression of the inlet and outlet is established as: (32)

[0145] in, It can be calculated by (23) (26),

[0146] (33)

[0147] In the formula, are the sound pressure and particle velocity at the inlet and outlet of the thin tube, respectively. They are the four-level parameters of the small tube;

[0148] In some examples, such as Figure 5 As shown in the figure, at the junction of the catalytic converter carrier and the round straight pipe, there is a sudden contraction and expansion of the cross section. is the diameter of the circular straight tube, is the diameter of the catalytic converter carrier, is the porosity, and at the critical surface, the transfer matrix equation can be established by assuming that the sound pressure is equal and the volume velocity is continuous. For the case at the entrance: (34)

[0149] According to formula (34), the transfer matrix expression at the inlet is established as: (35)

[0150] Similarly, the transfer matrix at the exit is: (36)

[0151] In the formula, is the perforation rate.

[0152] Combining equations (32), (35) and (36), we get the transfer matrix equation of the catalytic converter carrier:

[0153] (37)

[0154] in: (38)

[0155] In the formula, are the sound pressure and particle vibration velocity at the inlet and outlet of the carrier segment, respectively. They are the four-level parameters of the carrier segment.

[0156] Step S230: establishing an overall mathematical model of the catalytic converter according to the straight pipe section mathematical model and the carrier section mathematical model.

[0157] In this step, combine Figure 4, the transfer matrix corresponding to the mathematical model of the straight pipe section and the mathematical model of the carrier section created in the above steps, and the transfer matrix corresponding to the overall mathematical model of the catalytic converter obtained by connecting the parts in series,

[0158] Right now: (39)

[0159] Finally, the transfer matrix expression corresponding to the overall mathematical model of the catalytic converter is obtained as follows:

[0160] (40)

[0161] in,

[0162]

[0163]

[0164] In the formula, , , , They are the four-level parameters of the catalytic converter as a whole, , , , They are the four-level parameters of the straight pipe section, , are the sound pressure and particle vibration velocity at the overall inlet of the catalytic converter, , are the sound pressure and particle vibration velocity at the overall outlet of the catalytic converter, respectively.

[0165] Step S300: determining an acoustic transmission loss model of the catalytic converter according to the overall mathematical model;

[0166] In this step, the transfer matrix corresponding to the overall mathematical model is used to determine , , , , and based on the outlet boundary condition as a non-reflecting end, the acoustic transmission loss of the entire catalytic converter can be expressed as:

[0167] (42)

[0168] In the formula, is the density fluctuation, is the speed of sound, and D is a constant term.

[0169] Step S400: Under different airflow Mach numbers, based on the acoustic transmission loss model, determining the transmission loss of the catalytic converter at different frequencies.

[0170] In this step, since the acoustic transmission loss model is based on the one-dimensional plane wave theory, if the corresponding frequency of the calculated transmission loss exceeds the cutoff frequency of the straight pipe section and the carrier section, it will directly affect the simulation calculation results of the acoustic transmission loss. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the cutoff frequencies of the straight pipe section and the carrier section by calculating respectively, and determine the frequency value range of the acoustic transmission loss model calculation based on the minimum cutoff frequency in the straight pipe section and the carrier section, that is, the maximum end value of the frequency value range is less than the minimum cutoff frequency in the straight pipe section and the carrier section. Within this frequency value range, based on the acoustic transmission loss model, determine the transmission loss at different frequencies corresponding to different airflow Mach numbers.

[0171] Specifically, in response to different set Mach numbers, an acoustic transmission loss model is established to obtain a transmission loss curve of the catalytic converter at different frequencies, and the transmission loss of the catalytic converter at different Mach numbers and frequencies is obtained through the curve.

[0172] Through the above method steps, the mathematical model is established in sections in combination with the geometric structure characteristics of the catalytic converter. When establishing the mathematical model of the straight pipe section, the viscosity of the gas is ignored to establish the transfer matrix relationship between the sound pressure and the particle vibration velocity at the inlet and outlet of the straight pipe section. When establishing the mathematical model of the catalytic converter carrier section, the transfer matrix of the junction between the catalytic converter carrier and the circular straight pipe and the transfer matrix of the inlet and outlet of the thin tube are established respectively. In addition, the gas flow rate and thermal viscosity effect are fully considered for the thin tube of the carrier section to obtain the transfer matrix of the mathematical model of the catalytic converter carrier section. The mathematical model of the straight pipe section and the catalytic converter carrier section are combined to obtain the transfer matrix of the mathematical model of the catalytic converter. Finally, the acoustic transmission loss model of the entire catalytic converter is obtained through the total transfer matrix of the catalytic converter. Based on the acoustic transmission loss model, the transmission loss of the catalytic converter at different frequencies corresponding to different airflow Mach numbers can be quickly obtained.

[0173] At the same time, the transfer loss of the catalytic converter at different Mach numbers and frequencies can be obtained through the above method steps, so as to quickly analyze the sound absorption of the catalytic carrier in different frequency bands, and analyze the influence of parameters such as the diameter, length, pore density, perforation rate and pore diameter of the carrier on the sound absorption performance (transmission loss) of the catalytic converter. It is also possible to analyze the influence of different air flow velocities on the sound absorption performance (transmission loss) of the catalytic converter.

[0174] The following provides a practical application of the acoustic characteristics calculation method of the catalytic converter provided in the above embodiment;

[0175] See also Figure 6 , Figure 6The acoustic transmission loss of a catalytic converter at different frequencies obtained based on the practical application of the above method steps is shown. Before the calculation is performed, the calculation conditions are first determined. It can be understood that the calculation conditions need to be set according to actual needs. This embodiment only provides one of the conditions as an example, wherein the calculation conditions are: exhaust temperature 600°C, specific heat ratio =1.4, gas constant R = 287 , atmospheric pressure , since the above theories are all based on one-dimensional plane wave theory, the calculated frequency cannot exceed the cutoff frequency of the pipeline, based on the calculation formula of the cutoff frequency: The cutoff frequency of the circular straight pipe section is 1722Hz, and the cutoff frequency of the catalytic converter substrate section is 264673Hz. Therefore, the calculation frequency range can be set to 0 ~ 1600Hz, and the Mach number M (i.e., gas flow rate) is set to 0.05, 0.1, and 0.15 for analysis. Figure 6 It can be seen that under the given gas flow rates, the transmission loss is basically between 2 and 6 dB And above 400Hz, the transmission loss gradually increases with the increase of frequency. At the same time, the figure shows the effect of gas flow rate on the transmission loss of the catalytic converter. The greater the gas flow rate, the smaller the transmission loss of the catalytic converter.
