Human Comfort Model of Noise and Vibration for Sustainable Design of the Turboprop Aircraft Cabin

In recent years, the aircraft industry has made significant advancements in technology context of fuel consumption, maintenance, and performance. The most promising developments terms efficiency minimization emissions are through future generations turboprop (i.e., those generating thrust from a propeller). One important drawback with is that they tend to have noisier cabins, there an increased level discomfort vibration due tonality present. Human comfort perception key factor for manufacturers design airframes interiors. Noise major sources cabins; hence, seeking estimate passenger based on noise measurements order optimize design. aim this research study focused building model enable designers engineers passengers’ traveling experience. paper, experimental laboratory presented, determining relative importance cabin. results show increase levels magnitudes, overall human also increased. A linear allowing prediction optimization cabins.
