Abstract :
This paper presents an approach to teach the propagation of machine generated acoustic noise in a closed industrial room. The proposed educational approach is based on a model that facilitates the simulation of noise propagation. The physics and numerical elements of the model are described. The model and its simulation have been used for teaching an undergraduate class on Industrial Noise Control. The simulation results are compared to data obtained using a set of microphones located in a machine room.
