Ansys Acoustics Analysis
Acoustics Sound Design and Analysis

The sounds a product makes directly impact on user experiences. Sounds create strong emotions — positively or negatively — that reinforce brand identity. The difficulty of predicting acoustic results means that a single engineering mistake can prove costly to the final product, making Ansys Acoustics Analysis a powerful solution to ensure optimal acoustics and a successful end product.

Ansys Acoustics Analysis

High Level Features

Ansys Acoustics Analysis helps optimize sound from the first steps of product development. By applying this acoustic modeling software, you can have best-in-class tools at the ready to deliver top-quality user experiences that blend optimal functionality with pristine acoustics. By predicting the acoustic effects of a given product configuration at the earliest stage of design, you maximize your acoustic benefits while minimizing time, costs and rework. Test and validate the future soundscape of your product, such as electric vehicles, via simulation to ensure the desired acoustic experience.

What's New

In 2024 R2, Ansys Sound updates include new key features, scripting capabilities, and automated processes to help users simulate more efficiently, including:

  • PyDPF Sound: Python Scripting: All operators for Acoustic Analysis and Sound Quality will be available as DPF operators and as Python script for customized, automated and large data processing.
  • Pairwise Comparison in Jury Listening Test (JLT): The Pairwise Comparison is available as the 5th method into the Jury Listening Test: which includes the associated statistical analysis when gathering the results from several listeners.
  • ASDforEV Autostart: ASDforEV can now start automatically while turning the key on. The pre-processing formula for editing can now easily consider a wider range of driving parameters.

Capabilities

Discover multiple aspects of your products’ acoustic properties through in-depth testing, simulating and analyzing, all with the goal of improving a final design early in the development process.

Based on real test measurement or acoustic CAE simulation, listen and separate the sound sources, to then analyze the sound and improve the sound quality.

E-motor optimization means you can simulate the noise radiated by the e-motor and optimize designs according to acoustic KPI or sound quality criteria. 

Through vibro-acoustic and CFD simulations, you can listen to the sound of your virtual prototype and optimize the acoustic performance and sound quality at the beginning stages of the design process. 

Along with qualitative testing, acoustic design includes real-world perception—something Ansys evaluates with jury testing tool, with several psychoacoustic methods including statistical analysis.

Active Sound Design technologies can create an atmosphere to make the vehicle more alive, more attractive and safer thanks to audio feedback while driving. This is used for ICE engine cars and EV, including AVAS and ADAS sound. 

Combining simulation results, lab measurements recordings and acoustic transfer path, you can listen to your product and each of the components of your system in a fully realistic environment, like a driving or flight simulator.
