This study examines the design of compact low-frequency anechoic terminations and their application in the characterization of acoustic materials. By comparing the absorption performance of highly porous micro-capillary plates (MCPs) and micro-perforated panels (MPPs), it is found that MCPs with suitable channel diameters have superior acoustic efficiency and broadband absorption. Whether unbacked or backed by a rigid cavity, MCPs demonstrate high absorption performance over a wide frequency range.
Featured Application The design of compact low-frequency anechoic terminations.Abstract A challenging issue is currently the design of non-fibrous ultra-thin acoustic absorbers that are able to provide broadband performance in demanding environments. The objective of this study is to compare using simulations and measurements the broadband absorption performance of highly porous micro-capillary plates (MCPs) to that of micro-perforated panels (MPPs) under normal incidence while considering unbacked or backed configurations. MCPs are unusual materials used for sound absorption with micron-sized channels and a high perforation ratio. Impedance-based modeling and Kundt tube experiments show that MCPs with suitable channel diameters have a pure constant resistance that outperforms the acoustic efficiency of MPP absorbers. Unbacked MCPs exhibit a controllable amount of high absorption that can exceed 0.8 over more than five octaves starting from 80 Hz, thereby achieving a highly sub-wavelength absorber. MCPs still provide broadband high absorption when backed by a rigid cavity. Their bandwidth-to-thickness ratio increases toward its causal limit when the cavity depth decreases. A parallel MCP resonant absorber partly backed by closed and open cavities is proposed. Such MCP-based absorbers could serve as short anechoic terminations for the characterization of acoustic materials at low frequencies.
