The microphones collect sound pressure signals from inside and outside the pipe, and then the average sound pressure level is calculated. The difference between these average sound pressure levels is used as the core criterion for evaluating the pipe's sound insulation performance.

[0040] The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the embodiments described in this specification are not exhaustive and do not represent the only embodiments of the present invention. The corresponding embodiments below are only for clearly illustrating the inventive content of this patent and are not intended to limit its implementation. For those skilled in the art, different variations and modifications can be made based on the embodiments described. Any variations or modifications that fall within the technical concept and inventive content of this invention and are obvious are also within the protection scope of this invention.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides a method for measuring the sound insulation of a pipe wall, the specific process of which is as follows:

[0042] S101. Modeling the sound field inside the pipe: Sound waves propagate in the impedance pipe, and the sound pressure satisfies the Helmholtz equation and rigid boundary conditions. The wall equation is independent of the propagation direction z. For the sound pressure at any point inside the circular pipe, considering the incident wave and the reflected wave, the following is obtained by expanding the equation using Bessel functions in cylindrical coordinates:

[0043] ,

[0044] in, Represents the coordinates of the pipeline. sound pressure, These represent the length, angle, and axial distance of the point along the circumferential radius, respectively. This represents the (m,n) order sound pressure along the axial incident direction. This represents the (m,n) order sound pressure along the axial reflection direction. It is the base of the natural logarithm (a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 2.71828). The wavenumber represents the (m, n)th acoustic mode (+ indicates the incident direction, - indicates the reflection direction along the axis), and i represents the imaginary unit. Represents the eigenfunctions, A represents the normalization parameter. For the normal absorption coefficient and plane wave transmission loss measured inside the impedance tube, it only depends on the sound pressure transfer function of each acoustic mode to the reference microphone, so A=1 is taken. It is a Bessel function of the first kind of order m.

[0045] The sound waves inside a pipe are not simple plane waves, but a complex sound field containing multiple circumferential (m-order) and radial (n-order) modes. Traditional methods that directly measure the average sound pressure level ignore modal differences, leading to inaccurate results. The core function of sound field modeling is to accurately describe the sound pressure composition at any point inside the pipe using mathematical formulas, decomposing the sound pressure at any point inside the pipe into "the sound pressure of each order of incident wave". "and "sound pressure of each order of reflected waves" It refers to the superposition of sounds, rather than the overall total sound pressure.

[0046] S102. Conduct 2M sound pressure tests, each test providing different pipe sound source characteristics or end boundary conditions. During each test, measure the sound pressure from multiple microphones arranged in the upstream pipe 3 and downstream pipe 4 of the pipe under test 2, and also obtain the sound pressure outside the pipe under test. .

[0047] Where M is the order of the acoustic mode. For example... Figure 4 As shown, during the sound pressure test, the sound source 5 is placed at the head end of the upstream pipe 3. G microphones are arranged in the upstream pipe 3 and the downstream pipe 4 respectively, with the G microphones arranged along the circumference and axial direction of the corresponding pipes. Since the sound mode decomposition requires accurate knowledge of the microphone positions inside the pipe, in order not to disrupt the sound field inside the pipe and to ensure easy positioning, the microphones are embedded in the inner wall of the pipe, with their measuring surfaces flush with the inner wall of the pipe.

[0048] The upstream and downstream pipes have thick walls and good sound insulation, with no sound leakage. However, the middle pipe to be tested (such as many corrugated pipes in engineering or pipes in automotive audio equipment) has poor sound insulation, so its sound insulation needs to be measured.

[0049] In real-world scenarios, the end boundary conditions cannot be easily altered (unless significantly different sound-absorbing materials are used at the downstream pipe end each time). Therefore, in this embodiment, each sound pressure test provides different pipe sound source characteristics, which is robust to solving the equations.

[0050] Specifically, the sound source 5 for the sound pressure test uses a speaker array, which can generate a multimodal sound field and provide different pipe sound source characteristics for each sound pressure test through different speaker sound output combinations.

[0051] In this embodiment, the sound pressure outside the pipe under test is obtained by a free-field microphone installed in the anechoic chamber. .

[0052] S103. For the general case of using G microphones to separate a total of M acoustic modes, the following acoustic mode separation equation exists:

[0053] ,

[0054] The sound pressure level for each test was calculated based on the aforementioned acoustic mode separation equation. - Similarly, the transmitted wave and its reflected wave in the downstream pipeline are taken as the incident wave and reflected wave of the pipeline, and the sound pressure level for each test is calculated according to the above acoustic mode separation equation. - ,in, to This represents the sound pressure measured by the first to the Gth microphones in either the upstream or downstream pipe. Represents the sound pressure of the first-order incident wave. Represents the sound pressure of the Mth incident wave. Represents the sound pressure of the first-order reflected wave. Represents the sound pressure of the Mth order reflected wave. The eigenfunction matrix represents the acoustic modes.

[0055] like Figure 4 The sound wave emitted by the sound source 5, i.e., the incident wave, propagates along the upstream pipe 3 towards the pipe under test 2. Because the acoustic impedance of the pipe under test 2 differs from that of the upstream pipe 3, according to the principle of impedance matching in acoustics, when a sound wave is incident from a medium with one acoustic impedance (upstream pipe 3) to the interface of a medium with another acoustic impedance (the pipe under test 2), not all energy can be "completely transmitted." A portion of the energy is reflected back to the original medium (upstream pipe 3). This reflected sound wave is the reflected wave. After being generated, the reflected wave propagates in the opposite direction along the upstream pipe 3 (opposite to the direction of the incident wave), eventually superimposing with the incident wave within the upstream pipe 3 to form a "mixed sound pressure signal" collected by the microphones within the upstream pipe. Therefore, the sound pressure obtained from the G microphones within the upstream pipe 3 can be measured. to Substituting into the acoustic mode separation equation, we obtain - The sound wave passing through the test pipe 2, i.e., the transmitted wave, propagates along the downstream pipe 4 towards the end. After encountering the end device 6, the reflected sound wave is the reflected wave of the transmitted wave. Therefore, the transmitted wave and the reflected wave can be regarded as the incident wave and the reflected wave in the downstream pipe 4. Thus, the measured sound pressure obtained from the G microphones in the downstream pipe 4 is substituted into the sound mode separation equation to obtain... - .

[0056] Specifically, when solving the above acoustic mode separation equation, an acoustic mode solving algorithm is used. This algorithm corresponds to the microphone arrangement. Several schemes are shown below:

[0057] 1. The microphones are evenly distributed circumferentially but have different axial spacing. Accordingly, the radial acoustic mode is solved using the spatial Fourier algorithm, and the axial acoustic mode is solved using the least squares method.

[0058] 2. The microphones are distributed in multiple interleaved Archimedean spirals, and correspondingly, the acoustic mode solving algorithm adopts the l2 regularization algorithm;

[0059] 3. The microphones are completely randomly distributed. Accordingly, the acoustic mode solving algorithm adopts Bayesian estimation plus l0 regularization algorithm.

[0060] 4. The microphones are basically randomly distributed, but the eigenfunction equations must be full rank. Accordingly, the least squares method is used to solve the acoustic modes.

[0061] S104, based on the sound pressure of 2M units , - , - The following acoustic mode expansion equations are used to calculate the results. :

[0062] .

[0063] The sound outside the pipe under test originates from the incident wave and the reflected wave of the transmitted wave, hence the equation:

[0064] ,

[0065] The above-mentioned acoustic mode expansion equation can be obtained by performing acoustic mode expansion on this equation.

[0066] in, The coefficients representing the incident waves of each order. The coefficients representing the reflected sound of each order of transmitted wave. Represents the incident sound pressure. The reflected sound pressure represents the transmitted wave.

[0067] S105, based on the calculation The sound insulation of the pipe wall under each acoustic mode is calculated using the following equation. :

[0068] .

[0069] in, This represents the incident sound power level of a certain acoustic mode. This represents the external sound power level of the corresponding acoustic mode outside the pipe wall under test.

[0070] As can be seen from step S104, the solution obtained by solving 2M equations... It is a fixed value and is not affected by the characteristics of the sound source or the boundary conditions at the end, thus... Calculated sound insulation It will not be affected by the characteristics of the sound source or the boundary conditions at the end.

[0071] As can be seen from the above, the method for measuring the sound insulation of a pipe wall provided in this application separates the incident wave sound pressure and reflected wave sound pressure in the pipe based on mathematical modeling, and further decomposes them into various sound modes. By providing different sound source characteristics or end boundary conditions in the pipe, the coefficients of each incident wave are solved, and the sound insulation of each sound mode is obtained based on the coefficients of each incident wave. This method can eliminate the interference of sound source characteristics and end boundary conditions in the pipe, and realize the accurate measurement of the inherent sound insulation properties of the pipe wall. It is suitable for complex sound field environments (such as pipe systems dominated by higher-order modes) and can provide the industry with a reliable sound insulation performance evaluation standard.

[0072] The following will describe in detail one or more embodiments of a pipe wall sound insulation measuring device according to the present invention. Those skilled in the art will understand that these devices can be configured using commercially available hardware components through the steps taught in this solution. Figure 2 This invention illustrates a device for measuring the sound insulation of a pipe wall, comprising a first module 11, a second module 12, a third module 13, a fourth module 14, and a fifth module 15.

[0073] Module 11, used in S101, models the sound field inside the pipe: Sound waves propagate in the impedance pipe, and the sound pressure satisfies the Helmholtz equation and rigid boundary conditions. The wall equation is independent of the propagation direction z. For the sound pressure at any point inside the circular pipe, considering the incident and reflected waves, the following is obtained using Bessel functions in cylindrical coordinates:

[0074] ,

[0075] in, Represents the coordinates of the pipeline. sound pressure, These represent the length, angle, and axial distance of the point along the circumferential radius, respectively. This represents the (m,n) order sound pressure along the axial incident direction. This represents the (m,n) order sound pressure along the axial reflection direction. It is the base of the natural logarithm (a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 2.71828). The wavenumber represents the (m, n)th acoustic mode (+ indicates the incident direction, - indicates the reflection direction along the axis), and i represents the imaginary unit. Represents the eigenfunctions, A represents the normalization parameter. For the normal absorption coefficient and plane wave transmission loss measured inside the impedance tube, it only depends on the sound pressure transfer function of each acoustic mode to the reference microphone, so A=1 is taken. It is a Bessel function of the first kind of order m.

[0076] The sound waves inside a pipe are not simple plane waves, but a complex sound field containing multiple circumferential (m-order) and radial (n-order) modes. Traditional methods that directly measure the average sound pressure level ignore modal differences, leading to inaccurate results. The core function of sound field modeling is to accurately describe the sound pressure composition at any point inside the pipe using mathematical formulas, decomposing the sound pressure at any point inside the pipe into "the sound pressure of each order of incident wave". "and "sound pressure of each order of reflected waves" It refers to the superposition of sounds, rather than the overall total sound pressure.

[0077] The second module 12 is used for S102 to perform 2M sound pressure tests. Each sound pressure test provides different pipe sound source characteristics or end boundary conditions. During each sound pressure test, the measured sound pressure is obtained from multiple microphones arranged in the upstream pipe 3 and downstream pipe 4 of the pipe under test 2, and the sound pressure outside the pipe under test is also obtained. .

[0078] Where M is the order of the acoustic mode. For example... Figure 4 As shown, during the sound pressure test, the sound source 5 is placed at the head end of the upstream pipe 3. G microphones are arranged in the upstream pipe 3 and the downstream pipe 4 respectively, with the G microphones arranged along the circumference and axial direction of the corresponding pipes. Since the sound mode decomposition requires accurate knowledge of the microphone positions inside the pipe, in order not to disrupt the sound field inside the pipe and to ensure easy positioning, the microphones are embedded in the inner wall of the pipe, with their measuring surfaces flush with the inner wall of the pipe.

[0079] The upstream and downstream pipes have thick walls and good sound insulation, with no sound leakage. However, the middle pipe to be tested (such as many corrugated pipes in engineering or pipes in automotive audio equipment) has poor sound insulation, so its sound insulation needs to be measured.

[0080] In real-world scenarios, the end boundary conditions cannot be easily altered (unless significantly different sound-absorbing materials are used at the downstream pipe end each time). Therefore, in this embodiment, each sound pressure test provides different pipe sound source characteristics, which is robust to solving the equations.

[0081] Specifically, the sound source 5 for the sound pressure test uses a speaker array, which can generate a multimodal sound field and provide different pipe sound source characteristics for each sound pressure test through different speaker sound output combinations.

[0082] In this embodiment, the sound pressure outside the pipe under test is obtained by a free-field microphone installed in the anechoic chamber. .

[0083] Module 13, used in S103, provides the following acoustic mode separation equation for the general case of using G microphones to separate a total of M acoustic modes:

[0084] ,

[0085] The sound pressure level for each test was calculated based on the aforementioned acoustic mode separation equation. - Similarly, the transmitted wave and its reflected wave in the downstream pipeline are taken as the incident wave and reflected wave of the pipeline, and the sound pressure level for each test is calculated according to the above acoustic mode separation equation. - ,in, to This represents the sound pressure measured by the first to the Gth microphones in either the upstream or downstream pipe. Represents the sound pressure of the first-order incident wave. Represents the sound pressure of the Mth incident wave. Represents the sound pressure of the first-order reflected wave. Represents the sound pressure of the Mth order reflected wave. The eigenfunction matrix represents the acoustic modes.

[0086] like Figure 4 The sound wave emitted by the sound source 5, i.e., the incident wave, propagates along the upstream pipe 3 towards the pipe under test 2. Because the acoustic impedance of the pipe under test 2 differs from that of the upstream pipe 3, according to the principle of impedance matching in acoustics, when a sound wave is incident from a medium with one acoustic impedance (upstream pipe 3) to the interface of a medium with another acoustic impedance (the pipe under test 2), not all energy can be "completely transmitted." A portion of the energy is reflected back to the original medium (upstream pipe 3). This reflected sound wave is the reflected wave. After being generated, the reflected wave propagates in the opposite direction along the upstream pipe 3 (opposite to the direction of the incident wave), eventually superimposing with the incident wave within the upstream pipe 3 to form a "mixed sound pressure signal" collected by the microphones within the upstream pipe. Therefore, the sound pressure obtained from the G microphones within the upstream pipe 3 can be measured. to Substituting into the acoustic mode separation equation, we obtain - The sound wave passing through the test pipe 2, i.e., the transmitted wave, propagates along the downstream pipe 4 towards the end. After encountering the end device 6, the reflected sound wave is the reflected wave of the transmitted wave. Therefore, the transmitted wave and the reflected wave can be regarded as the incident wave and the reflected wave in the downstream pipe 4. Thus, the measured sound pressure obtained from the G microphones in the downstream pipe 4 is substituted into the sound mode separation equation to obtain... - .

[0087] Specifically, when solving the above acoustic mode separation equation, an acoustic mode solving algorithm is used. This algorithm corresponds to the microphone arrangement. Several schemes are shown below:

[0088] 1. The microphones are evenly distributed circumferentially but have different axial spacing. Accordingly, the radial acoustic mode is solved using the spatial Fourier algorithm, and the axial acoustic mode is solved using the least squares method.

[0089] 2. The microphones are distributed in multiple interleaved Archimedean spirals, and correspondingly, the acoustic mode solving algorithm adopts the l2 regularization algorithm;

[0090] 3. The microphones are completely randomly distributed. Accordingly, the acoustic mode solving algorithm adopts Bayesian estimation plus l0 regularization algorithm.

[0091] 4. The microphones are basically randomly distributed, but the eigenfunction equations must be full rank. Accordingly, the least squares method is used to solve the acoustic modes.

[0092] Module 14, for S104, based on 2M sound pressure levels. , - , - The following acoustic mode expansion equations are used to calculate the results. :

[0093] .

[0094] The sound outside the pipe under test originates from the incident wave and the reflected wave of the transmitted wave, hence the equation:

[0095] ,

[0096] The above-mentioned acoustic mode expansion equation can be obtained by performing acoustic mode expansion on this equation.

[0097] in, The coefficients representing the incident waves of each order. The coefficients representing the reflected sound of each order of transmitted wave. Represents the incident sound pressure. The reflected sound pressure represents the transmitted wave.

[0098] Module 5, 15, is used for S105, based on the calculations. The sound insulation of the pipe wall under each acoustic mode is calculated using the following equation. :

[0099] .

[0100] in, This represents the incident sound power level of a certain acoustic mode. This represents the external sound power level of the corresponding acoustic mode outside the pipe wall under test.

[0101] As can be seen from step S104, the solution obtained by solving 2M equations... It is a fixed value and is not affected by the characteristics of the sound source or the boundary conditions at the end, thus... Calculated sound insulation It will not be affected by the characteristics of the sound source or the boundary conditions at the end.

[0110] The electronic devices and computer-readable storage media provided in the foregoing embodiments separate the incident wave sound pressure and reflected wave sound pressure in the pipeline based on mathematical modeling, and further decompose them into various sound modes. By providing different sound source characteristics or end boundary conditions in the pipeline, the coefficients of each incident wave are solved, and the sound insulation of each sound mode is obtained based on the coefficients of each incident wave. This can eliminate the interference of sound source characteristics and end boundary conditions in the pipeline, realize the accurate measurement of the inherent sound insulation properties of the pipe wall, and is suitable for complex sound field environments (such as pipeline systems dominated by higher-order modes). It can provide the industry with a reliable sound insulation performance evaluation standard.
