As the wind speed increases, the contribution of wind noise gradually exceeds
other noise sources, affecting comfort. First, the classification of automotive
wind noise is discussed in detail according to the formation mechanism, sound
analogy, and pressure type. Then the wind noise evaluation and development tools
are summarized. Finally, the characteristics and control means of vehicle
window-induced buffeting noise are discussed. Considering the appearance and
field of view, it is currently difficult to control side window buffeting based
on passive methods. Therefore, the proposed method of actively controlling the
window opening size, actively opening multiple windows, and even releasing an
inverse phase sound source based on control logic has a good application
prospect.
