Analysis of the Influence of Racks on High Speed Train Interior Noise Using Finite Element Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the finite element (FE) method was used for simulation of the low-frequency sound field in high speed train compartments. The proposed model was validated using experimental results. The FE models of the train compartments with and without racks were established respectively, and the sound pressure level of the standard point and sound field distribution in these two cases were compared. The results showed that the A-weighted sound pressure level of the standard point was 1.2 dB lower when there is no rack in the compartment.
