Evaluation of Acoustic Characteristics for Various Composite Ventilation Material by Using Impedance Tube

Article Preview

Abstract:

With the development of techniques, the acoustic performance of 3C electroacoustic products, such as earphone, headphone, microspeaker and etc., will be paid much attention. Ventilation material which is often used in the front and rear side of the product is also an important component to affect the acoustic performance. Depending on the diverse manufacture processes and materials, there are many kinds of ventilation materials, including paper, mesh, poron, nonwoven and etc.. This study aims to investigate acoustic characteristics of these ventilation materials, including air permeability, reflection coefficient, and acoustic impedance. The result indicates that mesh with different code number shows similar air permeability. Meanwhile, the reflection coefficients of each mesh material have no significant variation with the frequency. For the lower frequencies, the level of acoustic impedance is much related to the structure or material used. With the increment of frequency, the acoustic impedance of all the materials will converge to a certain value even for the higher density material.
