This invention belongs to the field of
noise control and
acoustic design of
rail transit vehicles, and discloses a forward design method for low-
noise interior of a power-centralized EMU combined with
sound quality optimization. The steps are as follows: First, determine the design target value for the in-vehicle
noise sound pressure level and the target value for the comprehensive annoyance index of
sound quality. Second, based on the whole-vehicle noise
simulation model, allocate noise limits from the perspective of sound source-transmission path combinations, and verify the rationality of the allocation results in conjunction with
engineering feasibility requirements. Third, establish independent
simulation models for different sound source-transmission path combinations, determine initial optimization design parameters, and input them into the whole-vehicle noise
simulation model for iterative optimization to ensure that the total A-weighted
sound pressure level in the passenger compartment reaches the design target. After the
sound pressure level meets the target, obtain the comprehensive annoyance index of
sound quality using a sound quality evaluation and prediction model. When the sound quality does not meet the target, locate the psychoacoustic parameters affecting the sound quality and the corresponding sound source-transmission path combinations, and perform secondary optimization until the sound quality meets the target.
