Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To precisely measure a space transfer characteristic between a sound-source vibration face and a sound-pressure estimation point and to estimate the sound pressure without measuring the sound pressure actually in a method which estimates the sound pressure which is caused by the sound-source vibration face and which is situated in a position at a distance from the sound-source vibration source. SOLUTION: A microphone is arranged near a sound-source vibration face. A loudspeaker and a vibration measuring instrument are arranged in an estimation position. When the sound-source vibration face is not vibrated, the loudspeaker is vibrated, the vibration speed V2 of the loudspeaker is measured by the vibration measuring instrument, and the sound pressure P1 of the sound-source vibration face is measured by the microphone. Thereby, by using the known vibration-face area S2 of the loudspeaker (or the vibration-face area S1 of a sound source), a space transfer characteristic from the microphone up to the loudspeaker is found as P1/(S2.V2)(or P1.S1/V2). Then, the vibration measuring instrument is arranged near the sound-source vibration face, the sound-source vibration face is vibrated, the vibration speed V1 of the sound-source vibration face is measured by the vibration measuring instrument, and a sound pressure P2, in the estimation position, caused by the sound-source vibration face is found by an expression of P2=(S1.V1) P1/(S2.V2) by using the known area S1 of the sound-source vibration face.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sound pressure predicting method, and more particularly to a sound pressure predicting method for predicting sound pressure at a position distant from a sound source vibrating surface of an engine, a transmission, a cab panel of a vehicle or an industrial machine. Is.

In recent years, noise generated from automobiles and industrial machines has become a problem of environmental pollution, and quietness of this noise has been demanded at home and abroad.

In this case, the regulation value of noise is measured at a remote point separated from the source by a predetermined distance. For example, if the sound pressure is known before the engine is actually mounted on a vehicle, a measure for noise regulation is taken. There is a need for a method that can accurately predict the sound pressure at a given remote point because it can be determined more easily.

[0003]

2. Description of the Related Art FIGS. 7 (1) and 7 (2) show such a conventional sound pressure prediction method in principle. In FIG. An engine 1 having vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d serving as a sound source and a cab panel 11 covering the engine 1 are arranged on the upper side, and
A point Q for predicting the sound pressure caused by these sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d is set in advance.

Further, in the vicinity of the sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d, instead of the sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d, sound pressures are artificially generated by the speakers 3a to 3d and the speakers 3a to 3d. Microphones 4a to 4d for measuring the sound pressures SPa to SPd near the sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d due to the sound pressure are arranged, respectively.
Further, at the prediction point Q, a microphone 5 for measuring the sound pressures SPMa to SPDMd caused by the speakers 3a to 3d.
Is arranged.

In such an apparatus, first, the sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d are in a state where the vibration is stopped, and the speakers 3a to 1d.
Only the speaker 3a of 3d is vibrated and the sound pressure SPa near the sound source vibrating surface 1a caused by the speaker 3a is measured by the microphone 4a.
The sound pressure SPMa at the prediction point Q due to is measured by the microphone 5.

As a result of this measurement, from the sound pressure SPa near the sound source vibrating surface 1a and the sound pressure SPMa at the prediction point Q, the sound source vibrating surface 1 is obtained.
The transfer characteristic Ha of the space between a and the prediction point Q is obtained by the following equation.

## EQU00001 ## Ha = SPMa / SPa ... Equation (1)

Similarly, the microphone 5 is connected to the prediction point Q.
Sound pressure is sequentially generated in the vicinity of the sound source vibrating surfaces 1b to 1d by the speakers 3b to 3d in the state where the sound source vibrating surfaces 1b to 1d are arranged, and the transfer characteristic H of the space is calculated by the following equation in the same manner as the equation (1).
b to Hd are obtained respectively.

## EQU00002 ## Hb = SPMb / SPb ... Equation (2)

## EQU00003 ## Hc = SPMC / SPc ... Equation (3)

## EQU00004 ## Hd = SPMd / SPd ... Equation (4)

Next, by using the space transfer characteristics Ha to Hd obtained as described above, the sound pressure at the prediction point Q is predicted by the configuration of FIG.

That is, the microphones 4a to 4d are arranged in the vicinity of the sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d, respectively, but the speakers 3a to 3d are not arranged, and the engine 1 is started to vibrate the sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d. Put in a state.
In this state, the sound source vibrating surface 1a
The sound pressures Pa to Pd near 1d are measured.

On the other hand, the sound source vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d of the engine 1
The sound pressure P2 at the prediction point Q due to is given by the sum of the values obtained by multiplying the respective sound pressures Pa to Pd by the space transfer characteristics Ha to Hd already obtained as described above.

[Formula 5] P2 = Ha · Pa + Hb · Pb + Hc · Pc + Hd · Pd (Equation 5)

[0011]

In such a conventional sound pressure predicting method, a distance of 7.5 m is required between the vehicle and the measuring point in accordance with, for example, vehicle exterior noise regulation, and
Considering noise and the like, the sound pressure at the measurement point due to the vibration of the speaker needs to be equal to or higher than a predetermined value in order to ensure the accuracy of the experiment. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the sound pressure of the speaker.

Further, in order to reproduce the vibration mode of the sound source vibrating surface to be measured, it is necessary that the sound source vibrating surface is a speaker that makes parallel plane motion (piston motion) without rolling or split vibration.

Further, since the frequency component for simulating the vibration plane of the sound source to be measured by the speaker has a wide band, it is necessary to widen the band of the speaker.

That is, the speaker used for the measurement is required to have a high sound pressure, a wide frequency band, and a wide piston area in order to secure a realistic experimental accuracy.

As a result, the speaker becomes large in size, and the transmission characteristics of the acoustic space in which the large speaker is placed may change, which may make it impossible to ensure measurement accuracy. In some cases, the speaker itself cannot be installed and the prediction itself becomes impossible.

On the other hand, the sound pressure measured in the vicinity of the vibrating surface of each vibrating sound source is affected by the sound pressure coming from other vibrating surfaces of the sound source, which causes deterioration of measurement accuracy. The influence of this wraparound becomes a factor of deteriorating the measurement accuracy as the microphone moves away from the sound source vibrating surface and the measurement space becomes a closed space.

Therefore, since it is not known how much the sound pressure around this sound source vibrating surface is the sneaking sound pressure from other sound source vibrating surfaces, it is possible to identify which sound source vibrating surface is the direct cause of noise. However, it takes a very long time to take measures to reduce noise.

That is, this problem uses the transfer characteristics of the sound pressure of the vibration surface of the sound source and the sound pressure of the prediction point.
This is because it is necessary to dispose a speaker near the vibration surface of the sound source when measuring the transfer characteristics, and it is necessary to use the measured sound pressure near the vibration surface of the sound source during prediction.

Therefore, the present invention accurately measures the spatial transfer characteristic between the sound source vibration surface and the sound pressure prediction point in the method of predicting the sound pressure at a position away from the sound source vibration surface due to the sound source vibration surface. However, the purpose is to predict the sound pressure without actually measuring the sound pressure.

[0020]

FIG. 1 is a diagram more conceptually showing a sound pressure predicting method according to the present invention. For example, an engine 1 having a sound source vibrating surface 1a having a sound source vibrating area S1 and a vibration speed V1. , And the speaker 2 having the vibration surface 2a having the vibration area S2 and the vibration speed V2.

When the forces applied to the vibrating surfaces 1a and 2a are F1 and F2, respectively, the following relational expression holds.

[Equation 6] F1 = Z11 · V1 + Z12 · V2 ... Formula (6)

F2 = Z21 · V1 + Z22 · V2 Equation (7) However, Z11, Z12, Z21, and Z22 are mechanical impedances.

Assuming that the reciprocity theorem holds in equations (6) and (7), the following equation is obtained.

## EQU00008 ## Z12 = Z21 ... Equation (8)

On the other hand, assuming that the average sound pressures on the surfaces of the vibrating surfaces 1a and 2a are P1 and P2, and the surface areas are S1 and S2, the following relational expressions are established.

[Equation 9] F1 = P1 · S1 ... Equation (9)

[Equation 10] F2 = P2 · S2 Equation (10)

From the expressions (6), (7), (9) and (10), the following relational expressions are obtained.

[Equation 11] S1 · P1 = Z11 · V1 + Z12 · V2 ... Formula (11)

[Equation 12] S2 · P2 = Z21 · V1 + Z22 · V2 ... Formula (12)

Next, in the equation (11), V1 = 0 (engine 1
When the vibrating surface 1a of (1) is not vibrated) and both sides are divided by V2 and rearranged, the following relational expression holds.

[Equation 13] Z12 = P1 · S1 / V2 ・ ・ ・ Equation (13)

The following relational expressions are obtained from the expressions (8) and (13).

## EQU16 ## Z21 = P1.S1 / V2 ... Equation (14)

Similarly, in the equation (12), V2 = 0 (state in which the vibrating surface 2a of the speaker 2 is not vibrated), and both sides are S
Dividing by 2 and rearranging, the following relational expression holds.

[Equation 15] P2 = Z21 · V1 / S2 ・ ・ ・ Equation (15)

Next, when the impedance Z21 is deleted from the equations (14) and (15) and rearranged, the following relational expression is established.

## EQU16 ## P2 = {P1 / (S2.V2)}. (S1.V1) ... Equation (16)

That is, by vibrating the sound source vibrating surface 1a,
Instead of actually measuring the sound pressure at the predicted point Q, the vibration surface 2
a (sound pressure prediction point) is vibrated, and by measuring the vibration speed V2 of the vibrating surface 2a and the sound pressure P1 near the vibrating surface 1a, the transfer characteristic G = P1 / (S2 · V2) is obtained. Note that the vibration surface area S2 is a known value. Also, "Nearby"
Means within a distance range in which an object to be measured having a certain value or more without distortion is obtained.

Further, it can be seen from the equation (16) that if the vibrating surface 1a of the engine 1 is vibrated without vibrating the vibrating surface 2a of the speaker 2, the vibration velocity V1 near the vibrating surface 1a can be measured. This means that the sound pressure P2 of the vibration surface 2a (sound pressure prediction point) can be predicted by multiplying the transfer characteristic G by the volume velocity (vibration surface area S1 × vibration velocity V1). The vibration surface area S1 is also a known value.

Based on such a concept, the sound pressure predicting method according to the present invention arranges a microphone near the vibration surface of the sound source, a speaker and a vibration measuring instrument at the sound pressure predicting position, and When the speaker is not vibrating, the speaker vibrates to measure the vibration speed (V2) of the speaker with the vibration measuring device and the sound pressure (P1) on the sound source vibrating surface with the microphone. Using the known vibration surface area (S2) of the speaker, the transfer characteristic of the space from the microphone to the speaker is P1 / (S2 · V
2), then the vibration measuring device is arranged in the vicinity of the vibration surface of the sound source, the vibration surface of the sound source is vibrated, and the vibration velocity (V1) of the vibration surface of the sound source is measured by the vibration measuring device. Using the known area (S1) of the vibration surface, the sound pressure P2 at the prediction point caused by the vibration surface of the sound source is calculated by the equation P2 = (S1 · V1) ·
It is characterized in that it is obtained by P1 / (S2 · V2).

As can be seen from the above equation (16), the transfer characteristic of the space is calculated by using the area S1 of the sound source vibration surface instead of the vibration surface area S2 of the speaker 2 (P
It can also be calculated as 1 · S1) / V2.

Further, the sound source vibrating surface is divided into a plurality of sections,
More preferably, the sound pressure of each section is predicted in a state where the microphone and the vibration measuring device are moved corresponding to each section, and these predicted sound pressures are combined.

[0034]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The means for obtaining the spatial transfer characteristic in the sound pressure predicting method of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 2 (1). This sound pressure predicting method is also a diagram for finding the spatial transfer characteristic. As compared with the conventional example shown in 7 (1), the speaker 2 is arranged at the point Q at which the sound pressure is predicted, and the vibration speed V of the vibrating surface 2a of the speaker 2 is near the speaker 2.
A vibration measuring device 6 (vibration velocity measuring device) for measuring 2 is arranged, and further a microphone 4 is arranged in the vicinity of the vibrating surface 1a of the engine 1 to measure the transfer characteristic of the space between the vibrating surface 1a and the prediction point Q. The point to do is different.

First, the engine 1 is stopped and the vibrating surface 1a-
While the speaker 1d is not vibrated, the speaker 2 is vibrated, the vibration speed V2 of the vibration surface 2a of the speaker 2 is measured by the vibration measuring device 6, and the vibration surface 1 caused by the speaker 2 is measured.
The microphone 4 measures the sound pressure P1a near a.

From this measurement result, the transfer characteristic Ga of the space between the vibration surface 1a and the prediction point Q is obtained from the sound pressure P1a near the vibration surface 1a and the vibration speed V2 of the speaker 2 at the prediction point Q by the following equation. .

Ga = P1a / (S2 · V2) Equation (17) However, the vibration area S2 of the speaker 2 is a known value as described above.

As described above, this transfer characteristic Ga can also be obtained as (P1a.S1) / V2.

Next, the engine 1 is stopped and the vibrating surfaces 1a ...
In a state where 1d is not vibrated, the speaker 2 is vibrated, the microphone 4 is sequentially moved to the vicinity of the vibrating surfaces 1b to 1d, and the sound pressures P1b to P1d near the vibrating surfaces 1b to 1d are measured, respectively. Similarly, the transfer characteristics Gb to Gd of the space are obtained by the following equations.

[Equation 18] Gb = P1b / (S2 · V2) Equation (18)

[Formula 19] Gc = P1c / (S2 · V2) Equation (19)

[Equation 20] Gd = P1d / (S2 · V2) ... Expression (20)

Next, by using the spatial transfer characteristics Ga to Gd obtained as described above, the sound pressure at the prediction point Q is predicted by the configuration of FIG. 2 (2).

First, the vibration measuring device 6 is arranged in the vicinity of the vibrating surface 1a, the engine 1 is started to bring the vibrating surface 1a (and the vibrating surfaces 1b to 1d) into a vibrating state, and the speaker 2 does not exist. The state becomes equivalent to the state in which it does not occur, and the vibration measuring device 6 measures the vibration velocity V1a near the vibration surface 1a.

In the same manner, the vibration measuring devices 6 are sequentially moved to the vibrating surfaces 1b to 1d while maintaining the vibrating states of the vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d.
Vibration velocities V1b to V1d near the vibrating surfaces 1b to 1d are measured in the vicinity of the vibration surfaces 1b to 1d.

From the above measurement results, the sound pressure P2 at the prediction point Q caused by the vibration surfaces 1a to 1d of the engine 1 is the space transfer characteristics Ga to Gd already obtained and the respective vibration speeds V1a to V.
It is given by the sum of the values obtained by multiplying 1d and the results (volume velocity) obtained by multiplying the areas S1a to S1d of the vibrating surfaces 1a to 1d by the following equation.

[Equation 21] P2 = Ga · (V1a · S1a) + Gb · (V1b · S1b) + Gc · (V1c · S1c) + Gd · (V1d · S1d) Equation (21) However, the vibration surface area S1a to S1d Is a known value as described above.

Expression (21) is equivalent to the following expression.

[Equation 22] P2 = P1a · (S1a · V1a) / (S2 · V2) + P1b · (S1b · V1b) / (S2 · V2) + P1c · (S1c · V1c) / (S2 · V2) + P1 d · ( S1d ・ V1d) / (S2 ・ V2) ・ ・ ・ Equation (22)

Therefore, as described above, the transfer characteristics Ga to Gd are obtained.
The sound pressure at the prediction point Q can be obtained by directly substituting the measurement result into the equation (22) without obtaining

Although the cab panel 11 is provided around the engine 1 in the present invention, the vibration velocity is detected by the vibration measuring instrument 6 instead of detecting the sound pressure of the engine 1 as a sound source. Therefore, the sound pressure at the prediction point Q can be predicted regardless of the presence or absence of the cab panel 11.

[0046]

(Rectangular vibrating plate: external dimensions: 0.33 m in length x 0.63 m in width x 2 mm in plate thickness) is fixed to the support base 12 by welding, and the vibrating surface 1a is arranged so that sound is emitted only from the upper surface of the vibrating surface 1a. The lower surface of is double-shielded with respect to sound by the support 12 and the shield 13.

The position of the predicted point Q in the lateral direction of the vibrating surface 1a is more positive than the positive direction of the longitudinal centerline X of the vibrating surface 1a. A straight line L rotated by 30 degrees in the positive direction of the center line Y is included, and a distance from the center C of the vibrating surface 1a is 3 m on a plane perpendicular to the vibrating surface 1a and a distance from the vibrating surface 1a is 1.2 m. Points are set as prediction points Q.

In the measurement examples in FIGS. 3 (1) and 3 (2),

At the same time, the vibration measuring instrument 6 measures the vibration velocity V2 of the speaker 2 and gives the measurement result to the FFT analysis device 7. The vibration speed V2 is a constant value because the voltage value for driving the speaker 2 is constant.

The FFT analysis device 7 to which the sound pressure P1J and the vibration velocity V2 are input stores the sound pressure P1J in a sampling width of a predetermined frequency interval corresponding to the frequency output to the speaker 2.

The transfer characteristic GJ corresponding to the predetermined frequency is calculated by the following equation.

GJ = P1J / (S2 · V2) Equation (23) where J = 1 to 153.
