CAE process to simulate and optimise engine noise and vibration
The vibratory and acoustic behaviour of the internal combustion engine is a highly complex one, consisting of many components that are subject to loads that vary greatly in magnitude and which operate at wide range of speed. CAE tools development will lead to a significant reduction in the duration of the development period for engine as well as ensure a dramatic increase in product quality. This paper presents today's state-of-the-art CAE capabilities in the simulation of the dynamic and acoustic behaviour of engine and focuses on the relative merits of modification and full-scale structural/acoustic optimisation of engine, together with the creation of new low-noise designs. Modern CAE tools allow the analysis, assessment and acoustic optimisation of the engine.
