Dual-Stage Compressor Bracket NVH Optimization for High-Performance 4×4 Electric Vehicles

The rising demand for high-performance 4x4 electric vehicles (EVs) has necessitated development in Noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) optimization, especially in critical components such as compressor bracket. This study focuses on NVH optimization of a dual-stage compressor bracket, comparing its performance against conventional single stage isolation bracket. The dual-stage bracket is evaluated for isolation effectiveness, modal frequency alignment, and overall NVH performance, while ensuring compliance with stiffness targets. Additionally, dual-stage design meets stringent stiffness requirement, confirming structural integrity under dynamic loads. Modal analysis results reveal that the dual-stage configuration effectively shifts critical frequencies away from operational ranges, reducing resonance risks. The results highlight the dual-stage bracket's ability to address NVH challenges in high-performance 4x4 EVs, offering a robust solution for improving cabin comfort and vehicle refinement. This study provides insights for engineers seeking to optimize NVH performance in EV powertrain components, emphasizing the trade-offs between isolation effectiveness, modal behavior, and structural stiffness.
