Can an Engine Guard Reduce Noise?
1 Answers
An engine guard cannot reduce noise. Methods to reduce car noise: Reducing road noise: Road noise is caused by the friction between tires and the road surface, which generates vibrations and noise. Therefore, vibration damping is the most effective method. Comprehensive installation of damping plates, specialized damping boards, sound-absorbing mats, and door sealing strips on the wheel arches, floor, and doors can address road noise from three sources: vibration damping, sound absorption, and sound insulation. Methods to reduce car noise: Reducing wind noise: Wind noise is primarily generated by the friction between the car body and air during driving and enters the cabin through door gaps. To mitigate this, first remove the door inner panels, clean any dirt inside the doors, and install soundproofing materials, vibration-damping materials, and sound-absorbing materials. These materials should be adhered to the inner door surfaces, with reflective materials fully applied to the inner panels. Additionally, sealant materials should be applied around speakers and mounting plates. Methods to reduce car noise: Reducing engine noise: Engine noise mainly enters the cabin through vibrations from the hood and front fenders. Installing high-quality sound-absorbing foam materials on the engine hood can effectively suppress vibrations and absorb a significant amount of noise, providing noticeable results.
