Abstract
Microperforated panel absorbers are used in many noise control applications as an alternative to fibrous materials. Perforations were typically circular in shape in the past. Nowadays, slits are often sheared or cut into the material. Slits are non-circular and irregular shaped, and are difficult to model due to the fact that geometric parameters like slit size and porosity are difficult to measure. An inverse method using a nonlinear least squares data-fitting algorithm is utilized to estimate geometric parameters from measured absorption coefficient data. The circular perforation model proposed by Maa is used in the algorithm. The estimated geometric parameters are used to further calculate transfer impedance and transfer matrix with good agreement compared to measured data. The same algorithm is used to aid in understanding the effect of dust contamination on the performance of microperforated panel absorbers. In addition, the algorithm is used to examine the extent of manufacturing variations. Copyright
