ORIGINS OF AUTOMOTIVE VEHICLE NOISE

THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NOISE PRODUCED BY THE VARIOUS MAJOR ELEMENTS OF A VEHICLE ARE DISCUSSED AND IT IS CONCLUDED THAT ANY OF THESE CAN BE PREDOMINANT SOURCES OF NOISE WITHIN A PARTICULAR OPERATING RANGE OF THE VEHICLE. IT IS SHOWN THAT THE NOISE EMITTED BY THE VEHICLE ELEMENTS IS DETERMINED PRIMARILY BY THE OPERATIONAL SPEED. A QUIETER VEHICLE CAN ONLY BE PRODUCED BY CLOSE CO-OPERATION BETWEEN VEHICLE AND ENGINE DESIGNER. THIS CAN BE ACHIEVED BY DESIGNING A VEHICLE WHICH GIVES GOOD ATTENUATION OF ENGINE NOISE AND BY CHOOSING ENGINE DESIGN PARAMETERS TO LIMIT THE ENGINE NOISE. /AUTHOR/
