This procedure shows how to configure wind and road noise for a vehicle
simulation.
When using ASDforEV on the desktop or in a driving
simulator, this feature allows you to simulate a realistic in-vehicle sound environment
by recreating the perceived wind and road noise that would be experienced by an occupant
while the vehicle is moving.
-
Go to the Wind & Road tab.
-
Activate the wind & road noise by clicking the activation button .
-
You will see that the ExampleSedan.noise file is loaded by
default.
-
If required, click to select an alternative .noise file and
then click Open.
Note: The
.noise file, containing the evolution
of the 1/3-ocatve-band levels of the noise over a predefined speed profile,
must be prepared and exported using the
Ansys Sound: Analysis and Specification application.
-
If needed, you can:
-
remove the existing .noise file by clicking ,
-
adjust the gain for the noise signal
using the and buttons, moving the silder or by entering a value directly,
-
monitor the wind and road noise level by examining the VU meter,
-
deactivate the sound by clicking the button.
Note: The wind and road noise is played at the same level through
all available audio channels. There is no spatialization available for this
sound-type.
The wind and road noise is configured.
You can experience the wind and road noise along with the SAF and AVAS sound
functions in a driving environment.
