Ljudreduktion av insug : Ljudreducering på batteridrivna lövblåsare / Sound reduction of intakeAppell, Albin, Sandqvist, Jesper January 2024 (has links)
The purpose of this report was to investigate how an intake for a battery-powered leaf blowershould be designed to reduce sound emissions. A reduced sound emission improves both theworking environment for the user but also reduces disturbances to the surroundings. The workbegan with a market analysis of different leaf blowers’ intakes. Other industries and differenttypes of noise reduction systems were also investigated. The market analysis stated that animplementation of Helmholtz resonators in an intake has great potential to reduce the tonalsound that a battery-powered leaf blower emits. As the sound image of a battery-powered leafblower is very tonal, the idea with resonators was to reduce the tonal spikes to achieve a lowersound level. If the work could prove that the resonators provide a high effect in the area aroundthe tonal sound spikes, then with some optimization, the resonators could be adapted and lowerthe sound equally at these frequencies. The work then progressed with testing whetherresonators work effectively. The result of the test showed that resonators can dampenfrequencies with high power, which led to the work continuing with a Concept Generation. The concept generation resulted in four different concepts that all had different placements andimplementations of resonators in the intake. These concepts were tested again and comparedto a reference that did not have any sound dampening features. From this test, two conceptsperformed at a high level, which were Back Cone and Big and Large, and these were furtherdeveloped. Further development produced four different variants of Big and Large. These werevariants with different numbers of resonators. Back Cone was produced in three differentvariants with different sizes of resonators. The purpose of these variants was to investigate howthe size and number of resonators affect the sound dampening ability. These variants weretested according to ISO-22868:2021. The final test revealed that four prototypes achieve therequired value for sound minimization. However, several external parameters emerged that affected the test results. One parameter was likely a floor reflex between the leaf blower and themicrophone directly behind the intake. The influence of the external parameters leads to thecredibility of the test results being unclear and thus these prototypes cannot be approved. During the same test, a speaker was used as the sound source instead of the fan. In this test, itappears the same four prototypes achieve a sound-minimizing effect that achieves the requiredeffect in the same range as in the tests with a fan as a sound source. Even in this test, there wereseveral external parameters that affected the result and therefore the prototypes could not beapproved with certainty according to the requirements specification. The project can be summed up by stating that resonators have great potential to reduce thetonal sound that a battery-powered leaf blower generates. The project has also shown howdifferent placements of resonators affect the sound dampening effect. During test two, a prototype emerged that can be approved according to the requirement specification as itperformed 17,5 dB maximum sound dampening effect right above the tonal frequency and sixdB at the right frequency. The project cannot determine with certainty if the variants of intakeused in the final tests meet the requirement specification due to the external parameters thataffected the results. However, the project can state that the resonators have achieved an effectin all tests. The maximum effect achieved was analysed in test one and was 27 dB soundminimization. The project ends by proposing further work such as investigating how an intakewith resonators should be designed to be manufactured in mass production. The influence ofthe thickness of the intakes surface boundary layer on the effect of the resonator should also beexamined, as well as the distance of the resonator to the fan and the outer edge of the intakeshould be examined together with the several other points presented in the chapter Discussions.

En undersökning om användandet av additiv tillverkning inom motorsportAngerbjörn, eran1804 January 2021 (has links)
Utvecklingen av produkter inom motorsporten är viktig ur flera aspekter. Dels för att miljöaspekten kring motorsport är mer aktuell än någonsin och för att ny teknologi gör det möjligt att optimera fordonen mer. Den här rapporten handlar om att optimera ett insug till en specifik förbränningsmotor, Volvos motor B234 16v. Insuget modelleras i programmet SolidWorks, där en CAD-fil tas fram. Från denna CAD-modell ska insuget sedan konstrueras genom additiv tillverkning. Uppgiften var att optimera gasflödet och producera en produkt som är lättare än originalprodukten, i ett polymermaterial som klarar de temperatur och lösningsmedelskrav som ett insug till en förbränningsmotor kräver. Reverse engineering användes för att matcha de båda flänsarna på varsin sida om insuget mot motor och spjällhus. Ett antal olika versioner av insug modellerades och testades för optimalt gasflöde. Från detta valdes den bäst flödande versionen ut. En polymer, PA12 (polyamide) Nylon glasfilled, presenterades som det bäst tänkbara materialet för den additiva tillverkningen av insuget. Genom att använda det presenterade materialet kunde en viktminskning på 37% uppnås. Det färdiga insuget skall sedan testas i motorbänk av uppdragsgivaren för att jämföras med ett insug som modifierats efter Trendabs ursprungliga process. Efter arbetet kunde det konstateras att processen som använts i arbetet inte bara är sparar pengar åt uppdragsgivaren, men även sparar tid i form av arbete som kan lejas bort istället för att göras in-house. Det framgick även att reverse engineering kunde göras med goda resultat utan att använda avancerad skannerteknik. Istället kan konstruktören utgå ifrån den del som skall modifieras för att använda mått och bilder för skapandet av CAD-modellen / <p>Betyg 2021-07-16</p>
