Analysis of Noise Characteristics for Diesel Engine

Reducing vehicle noise and vibration is becoming more and more important in the modern market place. The vehicle interior noise is mainly caused by irregularity of road, engine and transmission. So it is important to study on the noise characteristics for diesel engine and identify the main noise source and investigate the effective methods to control noise. In this paper, by using the measurement and analysis system, we measured the sound pressures levels and their curves the noise of a military diesel engine, then made spectral analysis and coherence analysis. The results provide bases for low noise design of this diesel engine
