Abstract
In today’s world, the automobile companies are mainly focusing on the three governing factors, a) performance b) weight and c) cost. A lot of work has been done on predicting the noise path through effective noise testing and evaluations and further optimization of material coverage to meet the desired expectation of overall performance requirement. This paper outlines a unique method to correlate and optimize the coverage of the NCT around the outer dash panel area using experimental model testing inside reverberation chamber and virtual modeling module.
