In today's volatile market environment, and with the change of user priorities, NVH refinement results in silent, vibration-free vehicle. The commercial vehicle industry is also starting to embrace this development in NVH vehicle refinement. There are health concerns associated with the discomfort experienced by occupants. This calls for cabins with no boom noise and less tactile vibrations. Noise within the vehicle is contributed by excitation from the Powertrain, Intake, Exhaust system, driveline, road excitations, suspension (structure borne noise) and its radiation into the air (air borne noise). This paper discusses the approach used to reduce “In-cab boom” noise in the operating speed sweep condition and seat track vibration during engine IDLE condition to improve driver comfort. In this paper NVH refinement was carried out on small commercial vehicles.
