Abstract

Controlling sound energy in closed environments over the entire frequency spectrum is an extremely important factor, especially when acoustic comfort is a necessity of the architectural design of the environment. This control is performed by acoustic treatment, the sound absorption coefficient being a physical parameter of the acoustic material used. However, conventional sound absorbing materials (e.g. foams and fibers) have geometric and operational limitations towards controlling the sound energy with respect to the low frequency region (100–600 Hz). Such control has recently gained notoriety with the advent of metamaterial absorbers (MMA). In this article we present a theoretical, numerical and experimental evaluation of an established low-frequency absorption metamaterial. The acoustic metamaterial is based on the theory of micro-perforated panels (MPP) and the concept of coiled-up spaces, which resemble a labyrinth. The effects of viscous friction and thermal diffusion, important in the analytical description of the model, are corroborated through a numerical analysis using the finite element method (FEM). The sound absorption coefficient of the metamaterial is maximized by a heuristic method for the 100–300 Hz frequency region. A sample of the metamaterial was manufactured using 3D printing technology and evaluated in an impedance tube apparatus. The results obtained reveal sound absorption of 0.97% at 216 Hz with relative bandwidth of 49.0%. This demonstrates that the acoustic metamaterial presents a subwavelength scale, since its total thickness is 0.026λ.
