The invention relates to a verification test method of a gearbox noise prediction model and relates to the technical field of test methods, The verification test method includes a gearbox finite element model matching test S1, a gear transmission error test S2, a gearbox foot vibration and radiation noise test S3, a gearbox radiation noise source test S4, model matching S5, determination of gear meshing excitation S6, determination of foot vibration and radiation noise S7, identification of sound source and sound field distribution S8, calculation of the level analysis software platform S9, debugging, calibration and gearbox air noise pre-estimation S10. The verification test method of the gearbox noise prediction model measures the gearbox gear meshing excitation, the gearbox foot vibration, the sound radiation measurement, sound source recognition and the sound field, compares the test data with a calculation platform model. A verified calculation platform can be used to estimate the gearbox air noise.
