Abstract

Abstract : The separation and identification technology of noise sources is the focus and hot spot in the field of internal combustion engine noise research. Combustion noise and piston slap noise are the main noise sources of an internal combustion engine. However, both combustion noise and piston slap noise occur almost at the top dead center. They mix in the time domain and frequency domain. It is difficult to accurately and effectively separate them. A single-channel algorithm which combines time-varying filtering-based empirical mode decomposition (TVF-EMD) and robust independent component analysis (RobustICA) methods is proposed to separate them. Firstly, the TVF-EMD method is utilized to decompose the single-channel noise signal into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs). Then, the RobustICA method is applied to extract the independent components. Finally, related prior knowledge and time-frequency analysis are employed to identify noise sources. Furthermore, the spectral filtering method and the calculation method of piston slap noise based on the dynamic model are further carried out to verify separation results. The simulation and experimental research results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
