【Abstract】In order to measure the acoustic characteristics of the sound source in a duct system effectively without destroying the main duct,micro-perforated panel structures were applied in the new method by attaching the side branch tubes.The effect and influence to change the acoustical impedance of the loads in a duct system was analyzed and simulated for using one layer and double-layer micro-perforated panel and back cavities with different parameters such as panel thickness,hole diameter,perforation ration,back depth and so on.The results show that the load’s resistance can be changed efficiently by adjusting panel thickness,hole diameter, perforation ratio,the ratio of cross-section between ducts and tubes and other parameters;and the load’s reactance can be changed efficiently by adjusting back depth and distance between micro-perforated panel and main duct.It is also found that combinative usage of one layer and double-layer of these structures can change the reactance substantially in broad frequency domain.The method and the efficient performance of the structures with micro-perforated panel in the measurement were verified by the experiment under the situations of flow and no-flow. Finally,suggestions to design and apply these structures in the above-mentioned method in application were given.
