Exhaust noise sells mufflers and pipes. Exhaust noise can be irritating, as when an original equipment muffler or pipe rots and blows out. Or, it can be pleasing in the case of a high performance vehicle with a throaty growl when it accelerates. Either way, noise generates exhaust work and parts sales. How people react to noise depends on a number of factors. They say that introverts are less tolerant of noise than people who are extroverts. Unwanted sound from a vehicle's exhaust system can be very irritating, especially if the sound frequency falls with certain ranges or is extremely loud. Sound is nothing more than the compression and expansion of air waves. The repetitive nature of the exhaust pulses from the engine create pressure waves that travel through the exhaust system and eventually exit out the tailpipe. The frequency of these sound waves is measured in Hertz (Hz), which is the number of cycles that occur per second. The greater the frequency, the higher the number of cycles per seconds (Hz) and the higher the perceived pitch of the sound. 
The average adult with good hearing can usually hear sound frequencies between 20 to 20,000 Hz. A child with good hearing can hear higher frequencies up to 40,000 Hz. According to studies that have been done on how people react to various sound frequencies, those between 2,000 and 8,000 Hz are typically considered to be the most annoying. Those below 500 Hz or above 10,000 Hz are usually considered less annoying. Bu... |
