Abstract
Noise Attenuation for Polyamide Intake Manifolds
Since the stiffness of polyamide is lower than aluminum, special techniques have been developed to increase local and global stiffnesses of polyamide intake manifolds. The increased stiffness results in parts with noise emissions equal to or less than equivalent aluminum intake manifolds with twice the wall thickness. These special techniques enable engineers not only to attenuate noise, but to “tune” the remaining noise emissions for a desirable sound quality.
