Abstract

Cabin noise due to the electric powertrain of electrical vehicle may consists of motor noise caused by electrical mismatch and gear noise coming from reduction gearbox. These sound may be considered rather small noise compared to those of internal combustion engine, but without masking effect, the noise can be more annoying for customer. Thus, this paper demonstrates the characteristics of electrical vehicle powertrain noise, and the effect of passive damping material for the noise reduction. The typical motor noise can be affected by the motor torque. Also, it is demonstrated that the reduction gearbox may be a weak point for the noise path compared to the motor housing. With vehicle test, it is shown that the damping patch is more effective for noise reduction with deceleration condition than with acceleration condition.

전기자동차 파워트레인에서 발생되는 소음은 주로 모터의 전자기력 불균형에서 오는 소음과 기어 장치의 기계 시스템에서 발생되는 소음으로 구분될 수 있다. 이 소음들은 일반적 연소 엔진음 보다는 작지만, 조용한 배경 소음 때문에 더 거슬리는 소리가 될 수 있음에도 불구하고 그 소음의 특성이나 저감 방법은 널리 알려져 있지 않다. 본 논문에서는 전기차 개발단계 혹은 완성단계에서 적용할 수 있는 전달 경로에 감쇠 수동형 패치를 부착하여 소음을 저감하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 먼저, 모터 소음은 모터의 동적 특성에 따라 영향을 받으며 또한 모터 토크와 어떠한 상관성을 가지는 지를 보여준다. 또한, 모터 보다는 감속기의 표면이 더 소음에 취약한 부위라는 사실을 실험적으로 보여준다. 마지막으로, 주요 소음 전달경로인 드라이브 샤프트나 감속기 하우징 표면에 패치를 부착하여 실차 평가하였으며 실험 결과는 가속보다는 감속 조건에서 소음이 저감되는 영향이 크다는 것을 보여준다.
