[0056] Reference Figure 1 , a method for analyzing transmission loss of an intake system, comprising:
[0057] S101, constructing a three-dimensional structural model of an intake system, wherein the three-dimensional structural model includes various key components of the intake system, and each of the key components is determined based on actual simulation;
[0058] It is understandable that the key component data of the intake system is first collected, including the structural dimensions and material properties of the intake duct, air filter, filter element, muffler, etc. A 3D model of each component is created based on the collected data. Each model reflects the geometry and size of the actual component. All individual component models are assembled into a complete intake system model. The accuracy of the model is verified by comparison with the actual intake system.
[0059] In some of these applications, a three-dimensional structural model of the intake system is constructed, including each key component of the intake system, and each key component is determined based on actual simulation, the structural data of each key component of the intake system is obtained, and the geometric dimensions and material properties of each key component are recorded; the obtained geometric dimensions and material properties of the key components are verified to ensure that each key component is consistent with the actual situation; the whole or part of the structure of the intake system is determined as a calculation model, including determining the boundary conditions and connection relationships of the three-dimensional structural model, and simulating the airflow dynamics under actual working conditions, so that the three-dimensional structural model can reflect the working state of the intake system.
[0060] It is understandable that the key components of the intake system, including the structural data of the intake duct, air filter, filter element, muffler, etc., are collected. The geometric dimensions of each component are recorded, for example, the diameter of the intake duct is 100mm and the length is 500mm; the diameter of the air filter is 200mm and the height is 300mm; the diameter of the filter element is 180mm and the height is 250mm; the diameter of the muffler is 150mm and the length is 400mm. The material properties of each component are recorded, for example, the intake duct is made of aluminum alloy, the air filter and filter element are made of plastic and paper materials, and the muffler is made of stainless steel.
[0061] Verify the acquired geometry and material properties to ensure consistency with the actual air intake system. Measure and analyze the actual dimensions and materials of each component.
[0062] For example, the actual diameter and length of the intake duct were measured with a caliper to ensure that the measured values were consistent with the recorded 100mm diameter and 500mm length; the stainless steel material composition of the muffler was confirmed with a spectrum analyzer.
[0063] Determine the entire or partial structure of the intake system as a computational model, including the intake duct, air filter, filter element, and muffler. Set the boundary conditions of the 3D structural model, for example, set pressure boundaries at the inlet and outlet of the intake duct to simulate the airflow dynamics under actual working conditions.
[0064] Determine the connection relationship of the model, such as the connection between the intake duct and the air filter, the connection between the air filter and the filter element, and the connection between the filter element and the muffler.
[0065] Simulate the airflow dynamics under actual working conditions. For example, set the airflow velocity to 60m / s and the temperature to 25°C, and simulate the process of airflow passing through the intake system in the simulation software.
[0066] S102, performing acoustic cavity extraction and corresponding simplification on the three-dimensional structure model to optimize mesh quality and improve the accuracy of the three-dimensional structure model;
[0067] It can be understood that this step is used to extract and simplify the acoustic cavity of the model to optimize the mesh quality and improve the accuracy of the model.
[0068] In some of these applications, the three-dimensional structural model is subjected to acoustic cavity extraction and corresponding simplification to optimize the mesh quality and improve the accuracy of the three-dimensional structural model. The surfaces formed by the air inside the intake system are retained, and the surfaces not involving the gas flow are deleted to ensure the accuracy and computational efficiency of the three-dimensional structural model and reduce unnecessary computational load. The three-dimensional structural model is simplified, including removing support plates or grids that do not hinder the gas flow direction; structural features that are smaller than the overall structural size of the three-dimensional structural model within a preset range are deleted; structures that affect the mesh quality are removed or adjusted so that the three-dimensional structural model can reduce computational complexity while maintaining the necessary physical properties.
[0069] It is understandable that the air cavities inside the intake system are identified and extracted. For external surfaces that do not participate in the propagation of sound waves, such as the housing of the intake system and non-functional covers, they are removed from the model to reduce the computational load. For support plates or grids that do not hinder the direction of gas flow, they are removed from the model. Set a threshold, for example, for a model with an overall size of several hundred millimeters, delete features smaller than 10mm. These features include small holes, small protrusions or grooves, and the impact on the acoustic performance can be ignored. For structures that affect the mesh quality, such as sharp edges or small gaps, adjustments are made. For example, increase the radius of sharp edges to 1mm to optimize the mesh quality.
[0070] Mesh the simplified model. Select tetrahedral mesh and control the cell size according to the requirements of acoustic simulation. For example, for a sound wave with a frequency of 500 Hz, the wavelength in 20°C air is about 6.67 mm, so the side length of the largest cell should be less than 1.11 mm (1 / 6 of the wavelength) to ensure calculation accuracy.
[0071] During the simplification process, make sure to retain all features that have a significant impact on the acoustic performance, such as the cross-sectional changes of the intake duct, the internal structure of the muffler, etc. Assign accurate material properties to each component in the model, including density, elastic modulus, damping ratio, etc., to simulate realistic acoustic behavior.
[0072] For example, the air intake system includes the following components:
[0073] Inlet pipe: diameter 100mm, length 500mm, material is 6061 aluminum alloy;
[0074] Air filter: diameter 200mm, height 300mm, material is polypropylene;
[0075] Filter element: diameter 180mm, height 250mm, material is cellulose;
[0076] Muffler: diameter 150mm, length 400mm, material is 304 stainless steel.
[0077] In the acoustic cavity extraction stage, the air cavities inside the intake duct and the muffler are identified and extracted. Solid surfaces that are in contact with the external environment, such as the outer wall of the intake duct, are deleted from the model.
[0078] In the model simplification stage, a support plate that does not hinder the gas flow is removed. The thickness of the support plate is 2mm, which is much smaller than the diameter of the intake pipe and has little effect on the propagation of sound waves. A small hole with a diameter of 5mm is also deleted. The small hole is smaller than the preset range (10mm) of the overall structural size of the model. In addition, a raised structure that affects the mesh quality is adjusted. The height of the raised structure is 15mm. By reducing its height to 10mm, the mesh quality is optimized while maintaining its influence on the acoustic performance.
[0079] When optimizing the mesh quality, ensure that there are at least 6 units within the minimum wavelength (assumed to be 6.67 mm, corresponding to the propagation of 500 Hz sound waves in the air), that is, the side length of the largest unit should be less than 1.11 mm to ensure the accuracy of the acoustic calculation.
[0080] S103, establishing a finite element model, wherein the finite element model is modeled using a tetrahedral mesh, and different groups are established according to material properties;
[0081] It can be understood that this step is used to establish a finite element model to prepare for the analysis and calculation of transmission loss.
[0082] In some of the applications, a finite element model is established, tetrahedral mesh is used for modeling, and different groups are established according to material properties, and tetrahedral mesh is used for modeling. The mesh density and type are adaptively selected to reduce the complexity of the model and balance the computing resources; different groups are established according to material properties to simulate the influence of different materials on sound wave propagation, including the density, elastic modulus and damping characteristics of different materials, so that the model can accurately reflect the influence of material properties on acoustic performance; the mesh has at least 6 units within the minimum wavelength range, that is, the side length of the largest unit is less than 1 / 6 of the shortest wavelength.
[0083] It can be understood that the three-dimensional structural model of the intake system after acoustic cavity extraction and simplification is imported. Select the appropriate mesh density and type to adaptively reduce the complexity of the model and balance the computing resources. For example, for the straight pipe part of the intake duct, a coarser mesh is selected, and for areas with complex acoustic characteristics such as air filters and mufflers, a finer mesh is selected. , create different groups for different material properties. For example, the intake duct of 6061 aluminum alloy, the air filter of polypropylene, the filter element of cellulose, and the muffler of 304 stainless steel are set to different groups respectively. Assign corresponding material properties to each group, including density, elastic modulus, and damping characteristics. For example, for 6061 aluminum alloy, set the density to 2700kg / m 3 , elastic modulus is 70 GPa, Poisson's ratio is 0.33; for polypropylene, the density is set to 900 kg / m 3 , the elastic modulus is 1.5 GPa, and the Poisson's ratio is 0.4.
[0084] According to the requirements of acoustic simulation, the mesh size is controlled. For example, for a sound wave with a frequency of 500 Hz, the wavelength in 20°C air is about 6.67 mm, so the side length of the largest unit should be less than 1.11 mm (1 / 6 of the wavelength) to ensure the calculation accuracy.
[0085] Set the mesh size parameters to ensure that there are at least 6 elements within the range of the minimum wavelength. For high-frequency areas, reduce the element size appropriately to improve calculation accuracy.
[0086] For example, the air intake system includes the following components:
[0087] Inlet pipe: diameter 100mm, length 500mm, material is 6061 aluminum alloy;
[0088] Air filter: diameter 200mm, height 300mm, material is polypropylene;
[0089] Filter element: diameter 180mm, height 250mm, material is cellulose;
[0090] Muffler: diameter 150mm, length 400mm, material is 304 stainless steel.
[0091] When building the finite element model, first import the 3D structural model of the intake system after acoustic cavity extraction and simplification. Then select a coarser mesh for the straight pipe part of the intake duct, and set the mesh size to 2mm. For areas with complex acoustic characteristics such as the air filter and muffler, select a finer mesh, and set the mesh size to 0.5mm.
[0092] For different material properties, different groups are created and the corresponding material properties are assigned. For example, for the intake duct of 6061 aluminum alloy, the density is set to 2700kg / m 3 , elastic modulus is 70GPa, Poisson's ratio is 0.33; for polypropylene air filter, the density is set to 900kg / m 3 , the elastic modulus is 1.5 GPa, and the Poisson's ratio is 0.4.
[0093] In terms of mesh size control, it is ensured that there are at least 6 units within the range of the minimum wavelength (assumed to be 6.67 mm, corresponding to the propagation of 500 Hz sound waves in the air), that is, the side length of the largest unit is less than 1.11 mm, to ensure the accuracy of acoustic calculations, especially in the high-frequency region, the unit size is appropriately reduced to improve the calculation accuracy.
[0094] In some of these applications, the following factors are used to improve the calculation accuracy: the wall characteristics of each key component, including the thickness, material and surface treatment of the wall; air damping, including simulation based on actual airflow conditions; filter element material characteristics, including flow resistivity and porosity; and simulation of actual or near-actual conditions by defining the sound absorption properties of the material, including the sound absorption coefficient of the wall and the damping characteristics of the material.
[0095] It is understandable that the key components of the intake system are measured with high precision, including the thickness, material and surface treatment of the wall. For example, the wall thickness of the intake duct is measured to be 1.05mm using a micron-level precision caliper, and the material is determined to be 6061 aluminum alloy using a spectrometer, the surface treatment is anodized, and the surface roughness is 0.8μm.
[0096] The wall thickness of the air filter was measured to be 2.5 mm, the material was polypropylene, the surface was smooth, and the surface roughness was 0.4 μm.
[0097] According to the actual airflow conditions, the influence of air damping on the propagation of sound waves is simulated. The airflow velocity is set to 60m / s and the temperature is set to 25℃. The process of airflow passing through the intake system is simulated in the simulation software, and the viscous resistance and turbulence effect of the airflow are considered.
[0098] The airflow velocity field and pressure field are simulated, and the air damping coefficient is calculated. For example, for a specific airflow condition, the air damping coefficient is set to 0.02 kg / m·s.
[0099] The flow resistance and porosity of the filter element are accurately measured. The flow resistance of the filter element measured by the flow resistance tester is 50kPa·s / m 2 , the porosity is 90%.
[0100] Define the sound absorption properties of the material, including the sound absorption coefficient of the wall and the damping characteristics of the material to simulate actual or nearly actual conditions.
[0101] For 6061 aluminum alloy, the sound absorption coefficient is set to 0.2 and the damping ratio is set to 0.05; for polypropylene, the sound absorption coefficient is set to 0.15 and the damping ratio is set to 0.03.
[0102] S104, performing acoustic calculation based on the finite element model to obtain a corresponding calculated transmission loss value, and analyzing the transmission loss of the intake system according to the transmission loss value.
[0103] It can be understood that this step performs acoustic calculations based on the finite element model and performs transmission loss analysis based on the calculation results.
[0104] In some of these applications, acoustic calculations are performed based on finite element models to obtain corresponding calculated transmission loss values. In the analysis of the transmission loss of the intake system, finite element acoustic calculations are performed on the finite element model based on Hypermesh / Virtua l Lab to obtain the transmission loss values. The transmission loss values are analyzed and the transmission loss values at different frequencies are compared to evaluate the sound absorption performance of the structure.
[0105] It is understandable that the Hypermesh software is started, and the 3D structural model of the intake system after acoustic cavity extraction and simplification is imported. Mesh division is performed in Hypermesh, tetrahedral mesh is selected, and the mesh size is set. For example, for the straight pipe part of the intake duct, the mesh size is set to 2mm; for areas with complex acoustic characteristics such as air filters and mufflers, the mesh size is set to 0.5mm.
[0106] Export the model to Virtual Lab software and set the acoustic analysis parameters. Define the frequency range of the sound wave as 100 Hz to 800 Hz, scan with a step of 10 Hz, set the sound source position at the entrance of the intake duct, and set the acoustic boundary condition to no reflection.
[0107] Run an acoustic calculation in Virtual Lab to obtain transmission loss values at different frequencies. The transmission loss value indicates the degree of attenuation of sound waves when passing through the intake system, and the unit is decibel (dB).
[0108] For example, for sound waves of 100 Hz, 200 Hz, 400 Hz, and 800 Hz, the transmission loss values are obtained respectively. After the calculation is completed, the transmission loss data at each frequency point is collected.
[0109] The obtained transmission loss value is analyzed to evaluate the noise reduction performance of the intake system. The larger the transmission loss value, the stronger the noise reduction performance of the structure.
[0110] For example, if the transmission loss value at 100 Hz is 15 dB, and the transmission loss value at 200 Hz is 25 dB, it means that the sound absorption performance of the structure is better at 200 Hz.
[0111] The transmission loss values at different frequencies are compared to evaluate the sound absorption performance of the structure in different frequency ranges.
[0112] For example, if the transmission loss values are low in the low-frequency range and high in the high-frequency range, this indicates that the structure is better at attenuating high-frequency sound waves.
[0113] Based on the analysis results of the transmission loss value, optimization suggestions are made. For example, if the low-frequency transmission loss value is low, the length of the muffler can be increased or its internal structure can be changed to improve the low-frequency muffler performance.
[0114] For example, the air intake system includes the following components:
[0115] Inlet pipe: diameter 100mm, length 500mm;
[0116] Air filter: diameter 200mm, height 300mm;
[0117] Filter element: diameter 180mm, height 250mm;
[0118] Muffler: diameter 150mm, length 400mm.
[0119] When performing acoustic calculations, the model was first meshed in Hypermesh, and a mesh size of 1 mm was selected to ensure the accuracy of the model and the efficiency of the calculation. In Virtua Lab, the frequency range of the sound wave was set to 100 Hz to 800 Hz, the sound source position was set at the entrance of the intake duct, and the acoustic boundary condition was set to no reflection.
[0120] After running the acoustic calculation, obtain the transmission loss values at different frequencies. For example, the following results are obtained:
[0121] The transmission loss value at 100Hz is 15dB;
[0122] The transmission loss value at 200Hz is 25dB;
[0123] The transmission loss value at 400Hz is 30dB;
[0124] The transmission loss value at 800Hz is 35dB.
[0125] The noise reduction performance of the intake system is evaluated by analyzing the transmission loss value. As the frequency increases, the transmission loss value also increases, indicating that the structure has a better noise reduction effect on high-frequency sound waves. In particular, at 800Hz, the transmission loss value reaches 35dB, indicating that the structure has good noise reduction performance at high frequencies.
[0126] By comparing the transmission loss values at different frequencies, the noise reduction performance of the structure in different frequency ranges can be evaluated, and the design optimization can be carried out accordingly to improve the overall acoustic performance of the intake system. For example, if the transmission loss value is found to be low in the low-frequency range, the length of the muffler can be increased or its internal structure can be changed, such as adding baffles or adjusting the baffle angle, to improve the low-frequency noise reduction performance.
[0127] Combine the following Figure 2 and Figure 3 The following describes an embodiment of an intake system transmission loss analysis method of the present invention in some applications:
[0128] like Figure 2 As shown, this application can use Hypermesh / Virtua l Lab software to complete simulation modeling, solving and post-processing.
[0129] First, obtain the three-dimensional model of the intake system to prepare for simulation analysis. The collected data includes: intake pipe, air filter and filter element, clean pipe, muffler and other structures. Check the above data to ensure its accuracy.
[0130] Secondly, the intake system acoustic cavity extraction and model simplification. The specific principles are as follows:
[0131] 1. Support plates or grids that do not hinder the gas flow direction can be removed when simplifying the model;
[0132] 2. Structural features that are too small relative to the overall structure of the model can be deleted;
[0133] 3. Blind holes and blind tubes in the structure can be removed when their length is too small or their total volume is too small;
[0134] 4. Protrusions in the structure should be removed unless the total volume is too large;
[0135] 5. The structure that affects the quality of the grid should be removed or adjusted. In addition, in the air intake system, the filter material has a certain noise reduction effect in the medium and high frequencies, so it cannot be ignored. When processing the model, the filter model area needs to be pre-divided;
[0136] Next, a finite element model is established. In this application, the finite element model can accurately simulate the actual sound propagation process. Modeling is done using tetrahedral meshes, and different groups are established according to material properties. The unit size is limited by the analysis frequency. The specific requirement for the mesh size during acoustic simulation is that there must be at least 6 units within the minimum wavelength range, that is, the side length of the largest unit must be less than 1 / 6 of the shortest wavelength, that is, the unit length L should satisfy
[0137]
[0138] In the formula,
[0139] c is the fluid sound velocity;
[0140] f max is the highest frequency calculated.
[0141] This application explains the key factors that affect transmission loss accuracy:
[0142] 1. This application aims to solve the problem of insufficient simulation accuracy of transmission loss when the intake system is large in size and complex in structure. It proposes that the air damping inside the acoustic cavity should be considered during calculation. Different air damping needs to be set for structures of different sizes.
[0143] 2. This application is aimed at calculating the sound absorption performance of air filter elements, and requires the establishment of material properties to simulate the actual sound absorption situation. There are two main parameters, one is the flow resistivity, which needs to be obtained by actual testing or simulation calculation, and the other is the porosity. The porosity of different structures is also different. The porosity of air filter elements is basically above 90%.
[0144] like Figure 3As shown in the figure, through the comparison of actual cases, the influence of air damping inside the sound cavity and the sound absorption performance of the air filter element on the simulation accuracy is explained. The peak frequency of the loss result of the intake system measured in the experiment is 596Hz, corresponding to an amplitude of 43.4dB. Considering the above two factors, simulation calculations are carried out in turn.
[0145] 1. When both factors are not considered, the simulation results are very different from the test results. The peak frequency is bifurcated, the amplitude reaches 75.2dB, and the simulation deviation is 42.3%.
[0146] 2. When considering air damping, the simulation peak frequency is 590 Hz, the simulation deviation is 1.01%, the amplitude is 48.4 dB, and the simulation deviation is 10.33%;
[0147] 3. When considering air damping and air filter element, the simulation peak frequency is 584 Hz, the simulation deviation is 2.05%, the amplitude is 42.5 dB, and the simulation deviation is 2.12%.
[0148] Finally, submit the calculation and result analysis. Considering that the intake noise is mainly concentrated in the low and medium frequency range, the analysis frequency range can be set to 10-800Hz. For the frequency band of key concern, the frequency interval can be set to 2Hz, and the frequency interval of non-key frequency bands can be set separately. The calculation results include transmission loss, sound pressure level at each frequency, etc. When the transmission loss value is ≥20dB, the structure has good noise reduction performance.
