Tyre cavity resonance can significantly affect vehicle interior noise at frequencies around 200 Hz.

Abstract

Tyre cavity resonance can significantly affect vehicle interior noise at frequencies around 200 Hz. The insertion of a sound absorbing liner inside the tyre is known to be an efficient countermeasure, in fact nowadays tyre manufacturers are already producing tyres implementing this kind of solution. The present work, through analytical and numerical models, supported by material testing, provides a methodology for predicting the dag performance of a lined tyre, taking into account tyre/lining geometry and sound absorbing material properties. The results reported in the paper show that for fixed material characteristics, the attenuation of the cavity resonance is mostly influenced by the volume of the lining treatment. Moreover, the numerical model developed for discontinuous treatments, suggests that for fixed volume and material properties, the cavity resonance attenuation can be increased by choosing a proper layout.
