    Dynamat - Expensive material but very very effective,

    most eo le use this material for car audio because it

    works really good to improve sound and stop vibrations and

    rattling.

    Dynamat -will protect the hood's paint finish from engine

    heat to the engine as well.

    Noise reduction in two wheeler gears

    Gear noise can be attributed to several reasons such as

    gear design parameters, gear material used etc.

    Owing to design, spur gears during operation produce

    noise

     A change in gear design to helical would reduce the noise,but at in the cost of an increase in friction as in operation it

    produces an axial thrust.

     A more economic and effective way of noise reduction ingears would be to go in for a material, which has good

     A new member of the cast iron family, Austempered Ductile Iron

    (ADI), is a heat treated Spheroidal Graphite Iron(SGI).

    The microstructure exhibits ausferritic structure with a high

    volume of carbon-enriched austenite and nodular graphite.

    This offers the gear designer a combination of manufacturing

    flexibil ity, high strength, toughness, low weight, excellent fatigue

    strength and wear resistance.

    These properties are present along with good damping capacity

    and machinability.

    . ADI thus developed has been evaluated for mechanical

    properties like tensile strength, impact strength etc.,..

     ADI possess significant damping properties and helps in gear

    noise reduction.

    fine texture (that is on the scale of 1/8 to 1/4 inch) should be provided.

    Texture should be “negatively” oriented, meaning that any “deep” texture

    The exhaust system of an internal combustion engine has anumber of functions, one of which is to reduce the noise of the

    atmosphere

    The three basic exhaust noise mechanisms are:• - s s e no se ra a e rom e uc as opensinto the atmosphere

    • -mounting system to the surrounding structure.

    SOURCES OF ENGINE NOISEEngine noise is the sum of two elements:1. com ust on no se

    2. mechanical noise.

    • mechanical noise dominates the engine noise produced by

    spark ignition (gasoline) engines;

    • combustion noise is a more significant contributor to the engine

    noise produced by compression ignition (diesel) engines.

    Combustion noise.

    applied to the structure of the engine, causing vibration to occurwhich is then radiated as noise

    2.The gas forces in each cylinder vary during the working

    cycle of the engine (two or four stroke). They are highestduring the combustion period where the cylinder pressure

    rising quickly.

    Mechanical noise1. The crank mechanism(pistons,connecting rods,crankshaft,

     bearings) experiences externally applied forces due to gas

    forces and internally generated forces

    2. Around TDC there is a rapid reversal in side force produced

     by the slider-crank mechanism. This produces piston slap as the p s on mpac s on e cy n er- ner. s on s ap s norma y e

    dominant source of mechanical noise in the diesel engine.

    3. Piston slap noise increases with engine speed. It also increaseswith turbo charging. It is mostly controlled by reducing

    Mechanical noise1. In gasoline engines, piston/liner clearances are relatively

    small, and mechanical noise tends to be dominated by impactsin the crankshaft bearin s made throu h the oil film.

    2. At low engine speeds these are magnified by increasing
