Abstract
Radiated noise from an engine component cover is predicted by using a structural finite element model of the cover to predict its forced vibration response, and then by using the Rayleigh integral method to predict its radiated noise. Applications to evaluate the radiated noise from an engine rocker cover and an engine front cover are presented. Measurements of the radiated noise from actual covers installed on a running engine show the predicted noise reduction due to structural modifications is achieved.
