Study on Noise Prediction and Reduction in Coupled Workshops Using SEA Method

الملخص EN

A theoretical model for predicting noise reduction in coupled workshops is presented by using statistical energy analysis (SEA) method.

An opening between the coupled workshops is considered into the theoretical model properly.

The leakage issue is dealt with in the process of SEA modeling.

An experiment is also carried out.

A reasonable agreement between the prediction of noise reduction and the experimental data is observed.

Moreover, it is concluded from the simulations that the sound energy transmit through the opening was the most important way to affect the noise reduction and the leakage is a significant element to influence the effect of noise treatment.
